Overview
UAE.S GSO 2538:2021 sets the maximum limits for residues of ethyl alcohol in foods, which gives it direct Halal significance alongside its regulatory force. This bilingual workbench guides assessment of the product types where ethanol commonly appears, among them beverages, bakery items, confectionery and flavoured foods, against the limit applicable to each. Every assessment captures the analytical value, the threshold it was measured against and the conformity decision that follows.
It is a single HTML file working offline in any browser, with printable output for the file.
