Description
Soybeans, a versatile legume, are abundant in proteins that are heat-stable. Soy is an important ingredient in various food products, including tofu, soy milk, and soy-based meats. However, it is important to note that consuming soy products can potentially result in severe allergic reactions, which is why soybeans are classified as a significant food allergen. Considering the gravity of soy allergies, it is crucial to thoroughly assess both the production environment and food items for any traces of soy, as cross-contamination can occur during the manufacturing process. To ensure strict compliance with rigorous food safety standards and prevent unintentional exposure to soy, the food industry must employ exceptionally sensitive testing methods. This diligent approach is vital in protecting individuals with allergies and upholding the highest standards of food safety.
