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. 2, record 1, English, - nitrogen%20factor

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. 3, record 4, English, - good%20manufacturing%20practice

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. 7, record 5, English, - ethical%20fund

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. 2, record 7, English, - Safety%20Universally%20Recognized%20List
