The European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) has developed ERM‑BD801, a certified reference material (CRM) consisting of cocoa butter certified for five key triacylglycerols. It offers laboratories a reliable tool for enforcing the EU Chocolate Directive (Directive 2000/36/EC).
The JRC has certified an additional reference material that belongs to the set of mass fraction certified materials for DAS-40278-9 maize, suitable for implementing the European GMO regulations (EC) No 1829/2003 and (EU) No 619/2011.
The European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) is taking a significant step to ensure the longevity of its certified reference materials (CRMs). By making seven of its CRMs as digital CRMs, the JRC enhances accessibility and utility for laboratories worldwide.

The JRC produced a new CRM, ERM®-BD300, a rice reference material certified for the mass fraction of the emetic toxin cereulide.
The wine industry faces significant threats from authenticity, adulteration and fraud, particularly through the illicit addition of exogenous sugars to grape must to artificially boost alcohol content. However, stable isotope ratio analysis (SIRA) techniques, including nuclear magnetic resonance (SNIF-NMR) and isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS), offer a powerful means of detecting such adulterations. By combining these techniques, researchers can determine the botanical and geographical origin of wine samples, providing a robust tool for authenticity testing in line with Regulation (EU) 1308/2013.
