What canapés would now be appropriate ? Tough event to follow! #stophorsingaround hope no ethylene glycol in evidence.

LM pesticide screen of vegetables for 400 compounds. Permitted chemicals now harmonised through EU #stophorsingaround

LM elisa detection limit ca. 1%. DNA and real time pcr much lower 2-3 copy numbers. What is acceptable limit? #stophorsingaround

LM positive results confirmed by further tests. Checks eg against cross contamination. #stophorsingaround

Robin Bell ex Defra "make sure you know what you will do with the results" - sensitivity and specificity of test? #stophorsingaround

Is there an archive to tell length of problem? MW - yes FSA has database but was not previously being investigated #stophorsingaround

CS - cannot "hide" ingredients and is illegal. Convenience food responds to consumer and nothing wrong with it. #stophorsingaround

From floor - is problem complexity of processed food? If ingredients list is needed - how about don't buy? #stophorsingaround

How can locally sourced food be tested? Food miles reduction incompatible with year round availability #stophorsingaround

From floor -more testing done on water than on food. mutual aid group between water companies. Food industry should copy? #stophorsingaround

When fraud happens eg orange juice baby formula olive oil can be hard to spot when first arises - reliance on chain. #stophorsingaround

Some companies have dedicated suppliers and short supply chains. Cost sometimes causes sourcing from commodity market. #stophorsingaround

Dr Chris Smart Leatherhead Foods big companies take food safety and legal requirements very seriously - very exacting #stophorsingaround

What will be next issue? Will the laboratories be prepared and sufficient for that? Paperwork insufficient -can be forged #stophorsingaround

Only just coping by working round clock. System in decline for a number of years with loss of expertise #stophorsingaround

Now widespread testing of beef for horse and porcine DNA under tight timescale in public and private labs funded by fees #stophorsingaround

Liz Moran Association of Public Analysts - profession in "eye of the storm" - not routinely looking for this issue before #stophorsingaround

60% of adults have changed shopping habits - collapse of confidence. Testing poor substitute for supply chain control #stophorsingaround

Gerald Heddell from MHRA looking for parallels with medical regulation. Seems little actual health damage #stophorsingaround

Food chain has become longer because of price pressure from supermarkets forcing non-uk sourcing. #stophorsingaround chain needs to be short

Dr Mark Woolfe ex FSA "not that surprised" to find issue of adulteration but surprised by extent of problem. #stophorsingaround

Intro from Dr Derek Craston UK Government chemist. Products only tested when known to be a problem. #stophorsingaround

We are under starters orders.... And we are off! Inappropriate metaphors ? #stophorsingaround

Just arrived at @RSC_Comms for the #stophorsingaround debate. Hope to be tweeting more during the evening. And blog report in due course.

@TimberlakeLaw golden latex gloves - a field where decorative colour does not tend to be material allows the gold to stand out?

Nice to hear from you @Halen_Mon Andrew was speaking at our IP value seminar & gave you as an example of successful brand extension!

@RSC_Comms Actually I should check - will attendees be allowed to tweet, or only remote watchers? Sometimes phones are ordered turned off...
