Abstract: Title: Mitigation of Food Fraud using the USP Food Fraud Mitigation Guidance and Food Fraud Database 2.0.<br/>Food Fraud, also known as Economically Motivated Adulteration (EMA), threatens the integrity of the food supply and can introduce significant public health risks. USP will offer perspectives and tools that can be used to mitigate the risk of food fraud. The Food Fraud Mitigation Guidance is an appendix to the Food Chemicals Codex. The guidance was developed by panel of experts and is intended to be used as an information tool and resource only. It is intended to elaborate guidance frameworks and tools to assist users in the development of their own personal management system to counter food fraud. This presentation will summarize the principles of the Food Fraud Mitigation Guidance. Descriptions of the use of the Food Fraud Database 2.0 in performing the four step process for Food Fraud Mitigation Guidance will be included. Food Fraud Vulnerability assessment of a food product (salsa) will be used as an example to illustrate the guidance.<br/>
