Provision of analytical and research services to support the Food Standards Agency's biomonitoring programme for exposure to food additives.

Services include laboratory analysis of specified sweetener biomarkers and urinary creatinine, estimation of dietary exposure based on analytical results, statistical analysis of findings, and production of a final technical report.
