Following the crisis caused by milk adulterated with melamine which affected thousands of children two years ago, ISO and the International Dairy Federation (IDF), have developed a testing standard to determine the content of melamine and cyanuric acid in milk, powdered milk products and infant formulae.

To prevent future adulterated milk products from entering the market, ISO and IDF prepared technical specification (TS) ISO/TS 15495 | IDF/RM 230:2010, Milk, milk products and infant formulae – Guidelines for the quantitative determination of melamine and cyanuric acid by LC-MS/MS.

ISO/TS 15495 | IDF/RM 230:2010 will be useful for dairy producers and suppliers, milk product and infant formulae manufacturers, regulatory and testing authorities, equipment suppliers, and the food industry in general.
