Clear Labs, a new company that determines the sequence of the genome of the next generation in food, recently published the results of the analysis of the top 258 of the molecules in the products used in the burgers. The samples were 79 brands and 22 retailers. Tested samples of minced meat, frozen cakes, products for hamburgers in fast-food chain, and veggie burgers.

The results showed that 13.6% of the samples contained at least one case of a substitute ingredient, no ingredient, hygienic problems or pathogens.

Clear Labs said in the report about the burgers that these analytical results will provide manufacturers and suppliers a General description of the supply chain, as well as molecular analysis to reinforce strengths and improve weaknesses.

Clear Labs reported that, despite the fact that she discovered the problems that need to be addressed (such as the three cases the DNA of rat and one case of human DNA), the results suggest that the beef industry as a whole has benefited from stringent regulation and strict requirements testing.

At this time, Clear Labs, which claims to have the largest database of genomic markers of food, working with approximately 10 retailers and producers of products to help ensure the security of their supply chain.

The testing services offered by companies such as Clear Labs, provides benefits to producers, given that the Office for the supervision of the food and drugs administration (FDA) is preparing a final rule, the Modernization act food safety, which is expected to be published this month.

In a recent study conducted by Sparta Systems Inc., approximately 61% of the participants of the industry of food and beverages in the US said that their companies prepared for compliance with the regulatory requirements of the law this year.

In another study, published last month, 68% of respondents reported that partially ready to act, while only 25% confirmed readiness. Another 6% admitted that they did not prepared.
