It is very difficult for the consumer to select one food item because of misbranding, misappropriate proportion of ingredients, use of chemicals and harmful materials in food. As a result of these malpractices, the ultimate victim is a consumer, who innocently takes adulterated foods and suffers.
Therefore, this National Workshop on “Rapid Detection of Food Adulterants” covers novel and advance aspects of food adulterants and techniques that can help to understand for detection of adulterants conveniently.
