Allergen risk assessment

Allergen risk assessment is a process used to identify and evaluate the potential for food or products to cause allergic reactions. It involves studying the likelihood of allergenic ingredients being present, even in tiny amounts, and how these could affect sensitive individuals. This helps manufacturers and regulators ensure that proper labeling, manufacturing practices, and safety measures are in place to minimize risks. The goal is to protect consumers by preventing accidental exposure while allowing safe use and consumption of products containing allergens.
