dc.descriptionThis document takes a close look at how Kazakhstan built and maintained a strong, state-led system to keep its food supply safe—particularly from harmful contaminants like mycotoxins. It walks through how the country’s sanitary and epidemiological services were structured and what they did at every stage of food production, from overseeing factory design to regulating additives and packaging. A key focus is the work of the Republican Scientific and Practical Research Centre, which led efforts to map regional contamination risks and carried out thousands of lab tests, including detailed aflatoxin screening. The document also explains how policies, public health institutions, and technical teams worked together to apply strict hygiene standards in food processing and storage. Thanks to these coordinated efforts, the country saw a noticeable drop in contamination levels and food poisoning cases—an outcome that reflects the system’s effectiveness.en
