Questions and answers
Are home tests as reliable as a laboratory?
No. They catch common, visible adulterants quickly. A negative result does not prove the food is safe; only an accredited laboratory can confirm that.
What should I do if a test shows adulteration?
Stop using the product, keep the pack and the bill, and report it to FSSAI through its consumer complaint channels or to your local food safety officer.
Where do these tests come from?
They follow the rapid tests FSSAI publishes for consumers to detect common adulterants at home.
