AIMS Meeting Book_MYM2023

Why are alternative methods not more widely used?

 Industry relies heavily on external guidance • Governmental bodies (e.g., CDC, DOH, etc.) • Independent laboratories

• professional organizations (e.g., ASHRAE, ASHE, AWT, etc.)  Independent method validation is new to the industry.  ISO is currently the only option, and gaps exist in current validation standards. • Detection/quantification vs confirmation/typing  AOAC brings a breadth and depth of experience to meet a pressing industry need.
