A laboratory result is only as useful as the sample behind it. Importers, wholesalers and food processors sourcing turmeric, chilli or ginger powder should discuss sampling before testing begins.

Agree these details with the supplier and laboratory

  • Lot: what quantity and batch does the sample represent?
  • Plan: where will samples be collected, how many increments are needed and who will collect them?
  • Purpose: commercial evaluation or compliance testing?
  • Integrity: how will contamination, moisture changes and identification errors be prevented?

Apply the requirements to your enquiry

Codex provides general guidance on selecting sampling plans. CBI recommends representative spice samples drawn from different parts of a lot. Agree the approach before commissioning analysis; the appropriate method and sample quantity depend on the product, hazard and applicable requirements. Keep the sample reference and its relationship to the offered lot clear.
