Mission

The primary mission of the MAC is to create and standardise methods of analysis, specifically for processed fruit & vegetable products. Both customers and suppliers can be secure in the knowledge that these methods are fit for purpose. The data they produce is reliable, accurate and comparable. If customers and suppliers are to understand each other’s needs and expectations a common method is an essential.

The microbiology working group, a subgroup of the MAC, focuses on similar issues within their field.

What is the IFU MAC and MWG?

• A group of experts from the worldwide juice industry tasked with:-• Providing the juice industry with “fit for

purpose" analytical procedures for the assessment of quality and authenticity of juices

• Offer advice on suitable methods for juice analysis

• It is made by our industry, for our industry – really UNIQUE

MAC developments

• Simple methods that would/could be used in a “routine” juice QC laboratory

• Complex procedures not for routine QC use

• Using advanced (expensive) equipment for authenticity assessment

• Using complex methods

• Recommendations• Review of methods for a specific issue or

• Using a specialist procedure which cannot be“ring tested” by the MAC for information purposes
