Speakers: Jesse Dekeyrel, Ruth Quiroga and Deisy Toloza Moreno The third Cadmium Talks webinar, focused on quality assurance in cadmium analysis in cocoa. PhD student Yasa Deel introduced “ring tests” to harmonize lab results, highlighted the role of solid reference materials, and presented the EMX machine, a novel tool optimized for detecting low concentrations of cadmium. The EMX offers accuracy similar to conventional methods but is faster, cheaper, and easier to use. Colombian experts Ruth Koga and Daisy Toosa discussed best practices for field sampling and detailed the lab protocols used at Agavia Laboratory. They stressed that proper sampling and sample preparation are essential for reliable cadmium testing. The webinar emphasized the importance of maintaining high standards and quality control across all stages of testing. Ensuring cadmium levels remain within acceptable limits is critical for Latin American and Caribbean cocoa producers to access European markets and remain competitive globally in the cocoa and chocolate industry. 2025-03-27T13:31:35Z 2023 Seminario web https://hdl.handle.net/11324/23143 en https://youtu.be/0ajGUS9iD2Q?si=-FeG49NZISA_XllQ image/png application/pdf |
