In this course, concepts of calibration and the estimation of its uncertainty are clarified, both for direct measurement equipment and for instrumental calibration. This will help you to better understand the equipment available in the laboratory and to have greater control over it, minimizing risks and complying with the Quality System according to UNE-EN ISO/IEC 17025:2017. To support this, practical examples will also be provided.

The Challenge Test is a key tool for validating the shelf life of food products, especially in ready-to-eat items. Its proper execution is critical for food safety and regulatory compliance. With the Challenge Test, it is possible to evaluate the ability of a food product to inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms, such as Listeria monocytogenes, one of the most relevant pathogens in the food industry due to its ability to grow in diverse environments.

This course will provide you with the necessary foundations to:
· Design a solid Challenge Test plan in compliance with regulations.
· Select matrices, strains, inoculation, and storage conditions.

In the course, we will cover the implementation of the somatic coliphage enumeration method in water using standardized methods (ISO 10705-2:2001 / ISO 10705-3:2003), both with and without sample concentration, to allow for low counts in accordance with legislation.

In this course, we guide you on how to make the most of your participation in interlaboratory comparison exercises, while also analyzing in detail the required reference documentation, including its specific requirements (NT-03 and G-ENAC-14). We cover both the evaluation of the results obtained and the assessment of the providers involved in these exercises.

Starting from September 2024, all accredited laboratories performing internal calibrations will be required to carry out a risk analysis to determine whether participation in interlaboratory comparisons is necessary. This analysis will take into account the specific context of each laboratory, the activities it performs, and other methods that ensure the validity of the results. In this course, we will guide you step by step to master how to effectively conduct this risk analysis. We will provide you with all the key concepts to thoroughly understand how to evaluate risks, following the guidelines of G-ENAC 25, and help you apply best practices so that your laboratory complies with NT03 and can confidently face your analysis. An Excel risk analysis sheet is included. It is only compatible with Microsoft Office.

We will introduce you to the minimum parameters to consider for the proper definition of a chromatographic method and for establishing its controls. The concept of Instrumental Calibration will be reviewed in its different approaches (curve fitting with multiple points, use of the response factor, with and without internal standard, with and without matrix) along with the criteria for its evaluation. We will explain the validation parameters (linearity, trueness, and precision) and the estimation of the uncertainty of the results.

We will introduce you to the minimum parameters to consider for the proper definition of an ICP-MS method and its control. The concept of Instrumental Calibration will be reviewed in its different approaches (curve fitting with multiple points, use of the response factor, with and without internal standard, with and without matrix) and the criteria for its evaluation. We will clarify and work on the validation parameters (linearity, trueness, and precision) as well as the estimation of the uncertainty of the results.

It is important to clarify good practices within a laboratory, regardless of the type of laboratory or the tests performed. It is also essential to understand the categories of non-hazardous waste that may be generated, as well as the different categories of hazardous waste and their incompatibilities. Knowing how to respond to accidents or incidents related to waste management is crucial. In addition, it is necessary to explain the proper procedures for transferring and handling generated waste. Understanding waste classifications according to applicable regulations, as well as their identification and labeling, is fundamental. All of these aspects aim to provide an appropriate management system for laboratories based on their waste generation, ensure the proper functioning of a laboratory—even in the management of hazardous or non-hazardous waste—and guarantee that waste management is carried out correctly and in compliance with current legislation.
