● Thomas J. Maronick, “Empirical Analysis of Consumers’ Understanding of ‘All Natural’ and Its Relationship to Genetically Modified Organisms [GMOs]”

International Journal of Business and Social Science, Vol. 7 No. 6 (2016) 10-19.

Abstract

Food labeled “natural” or “all natural” is estimated to be a $40 Billion industry and that “all natural” is the second most-used claim on new American food products. The problem is that neither the FDA nor the FTC has ever defined the word “natural,” preferring, at least from the FDA perspective, to give informal guidelines that a food product labeled “natural” should be one where nothing artificial or synthetic has been added or included that would not normally be in the food. Moreover, since the FDA has taken the position that genetically modified organism (GMOs) are “not substantially different from non-genetically modified foods,” food marketers are not required to label their products if they contain GMOs. To address the issue, the historical background of “natural” labeling at the FDA, the FTC, and state legislatures and actions being taken related to GMOs are examined and then the results of an on-line survey of 800 consumers who buy items labeled “all natural” is described. The on-line survey assesses consumers’ understanding of “all natural” and their perception of express and/or implied claims of “all natural” on a consumer product and their perceptions of GMOs. Policy implications that flow from these findings are also discussed.

Keywords: consumer behavior, surveys, GMOs, all natural, regulations, FDA, FTC

International Journal of Food Contamination, Vol. 3 nº 22 (2016) DOI: 10.1186/s40550-016-0045-3

Publicado como avance 'online' el 5 de diciembre de 2016

Abstract

Food adulteration is a global concern and developing countries are at higher risk associated with it due to lack of monitoring and policies. However, this is one of the most common phenomena that has been overlooked in many countries. Unfortunately, in contrast to common belief, milk adulterants can pose serious health hazards leading to fatal diseases. This paper presents a detailed review of common milk adulterants as well as different methods to detect the adulterants both qualitatively and quantitatively. This study is organized to be an 'adulterant based' study instead of 'techniques based' one, where qualitative detection for most of the common adulterants are enlisted and quantitative detection methods are limited to few major adulterants of milk. Apart from regular techniques, recent development in these detection techniques have also been reported. Nowadays milk is being adulterated in more sophisticated ways that demands for cutting edge research for the detection of the adulterants. This review intends to contribute towards the common knowledge base regarding possible milk adulterants and their detection techniques.

Keywords: milk processing, adulteration, product safety, dairy, ELISA
