Division 5.2 Quantitative requirements as regards incremental samples in relation to the control of constituents or substances likely to be distributed non-uniformly in feedF1
United Kingdom
These quantitative requirements as regards incremental samples are to be used in the following situations:
control of aflatoxins, rye ergot, other mycotoxins and harmful botanical impurities in feed materials;
control of cross contamination by a constituent, including GM material, or substance for which non-uniform distribution is expected in feed materials.
In case the control authority has strong suspicion that such a non-uniform distribution occurs also in case of cross contamination by a constituent or substance in a compound feed, the quantitative requirements as provided for in the table below can be applied.
| Size of sampled portion | Minimum number of incremental samples |
|---|---|
| < 80 tonnes | See quantitative requirements under point 5.1. The number of incremental samples to be taken has to be multiplied by 2,5. |
| ≥ 80 tonnes | 100 |
