Nitrogen factor is used to measure fish content in processed products like coated fish or fish fillet with added water. When fish is processed under wet conditions under good hygienic practice and good manufacturing practice, there may be some degree of water absorption and loss of soluble nitrogen. Nitrogen factors have been established for some fish species under GMP [good manufacturing practices] and GHP [good hygienic practices] and interim nitrogen factors are available for some species.

That part of Quality Assurance which ensures that products are consistently produced and controlled to the quality standards appropriate to their intended use.

CONT

Good manufacturing practices(GMPs) are measures designed to ensure an effective overall approach to product quality control and risk management. They do so by setting appropriate standards and practices for product testing, manufacturing, storage, handling and distribution. Manufacturers, packagers, labellers and importers must demonstrate that they adhere to these practices before the Natural Health Products Directorate(NHPD) will issue them a site licence, which they must have in order to sell a natural health product in Canada.

Record 5 2010-07-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Investment
DEF

A fund whose investments are limited to companies that satisfy certain ethical standards, for example, upholding good labour practices and environmental policies, not carrying out research on animals, not trading with countries which have oppressive regimes, not manufacturing armaments or unhealthy products.

CONT

Increased demand for ethical funds has prompted one banking group, Mercury Provident, to launch two occupational pension schemes aimed at the ethical market, and it will be introducing an ethical private pension scheme in the new year.

CONT

For a short while now in France, there has been a certain development of "green" funds, otherwise known as ethical and solidarity savings schemes. These can be divided into three groups: green funds for investment in companies that are non-polluting or have an environmental protection vocation; ethical and solidarity funds for development, which especially support actions or companies in connection with the Third World; ethical funds supporting projects and companies that respect the environment and propose products and services that meet strict criteria.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Investissements et placements
DEF

Fonds commun de placement ou société d'investissement à capital variable qui investit exclusivement dans des titres de sociétés intégrant le respect de certains critères sociaux et moraux dans la poursuite de leurs objectifs financiers.

CONT

En comparant, on remarque que ces fonds éthiques, qui préconisent de placer son argent là ou on pourrait également mettre sa conscience, ont réalisé des performances très similaires à celles des fonds classiques.

CONT

On constate depuis peu en France un certain développement des fonds « verts», autrement nommés épargne éthique et solidaire. Ceux-ci se classent en trois groupes : les fonds « verts » pour un investissement dans des entreprises non-polluantes ou avec une vocation de protection de l'environnement; les fonds éthiques et solidaires au service du développement, qui soutiennent surtout des actions ou des entreprises en lien avec le Tiers Monde; les fonds éthiques qui soutiennent des projets et des entreprises qui respectent l'environnement et proposent des produits et des services répondant à des critères stricts.

Current Regulations list food additives in 15 different tables based on functions of the additive, for example, anti-caking and pH adjustment agents, preservatives, etc. Health Canada is proposing to regulate additives in two categories. Additives on the SURE(Safety Universally Recognized) List, in which about 36 percent of all additives fall, will be permitted at good manufacturing practices levels unless precluded by a standard. The second list will include additives where greater control is required to ensure safety and Health Canada will prescribe both finite levels of use and the purpose of the additive.
