Gerry Woolf talks to Dr David Kilcast and Dr Bill Reid of Leatherhead Food Research Association on the problem of identifying taints. Next to food safety issues, the problems of taint are probably the biggest threat facing food manufacturers today.

Their investigation pushes the science of analytical chemistry to its limits and requires the investigative skills of Sherlock Holmes to resolve.
