Laboratory for quantity analysis of soya content in Stara Planina meat products to be opened in Bulgaria

The Association of Bulgarian Meat Producers will equip a laboratory, which to make quantity analysis on soya content in meat products offered under the Stara Planina food products quality standard, Bulgarian Minister of Agriculture and Food Miroslav Naydenov announced at an extraordinary press conference, "The future laboratory will get accreditation form the state. At the moment Bulgaria lacks a methodology for ascertaining the amount of soya in meat products. There is only a quality analysis and thus the four samples of Stara Planina meat products tested positive for soya. For that reason the samples of the four meat products were sent for analysis abroad."
Teams of experts with the State Veterinary and Sanitary Control Service are checking the factories of the four companies and on Monday they will present reports on the inspections, the minister added.
