New Limits for Nickel in food

On 30 July 2024 the European Commission published the Reg. (EU) 2024/1987, amending Reg. (EU) 2023/915 setting maximum levels of nickel in certain foodstuffs.

The regulation will affect most matrices starting from 1 July 2025 set out in the entry 3.6 of Annex I https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32024R1987, excepted for Cereals (Cereals, Durum wheat, Husked rice, Pseudo cereals and millet, Oats ) that will be affected staring from 1 July 2026.

Neotron performs the analysis of Nickel by ICP-MS technique with the limit of quantification of 0,005 mg/kg.

We encourage clients to plan a revision of their analytical plans in line with the new Regulation and contact their sales representative for technical support and the update of the analytical proposal.
