The Ghana Standards Authority (GSA) in partnership with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH has commissioned a Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LCMS), an Organic Food Testing Equipment.
The commissioning of the LCMS on Friday, April 26, 2024 is expected to improve the quality output for its numerous diagnostic analyses in agricultural products.
The boost in quality output will be evident in products including the determination of cells, amino acids, vitamins, metals, proteins, cancer biomarkers, drug monitoring, pesticide residue analysis, among others.
“The commissioning of the equipment will revolutionize agricultural products standards in Ghana and unlock the potential of having SMEs to expand their markets outside Ghana. The aim is that when SMEs expand, they are then able to employ more.”- Mr. John C. Duti, Team Leader, Invest for Jobs, GIZ.
