00:00Europe's best food safety experts are joining forces to crack down on fraud.

00:06Euronews is following them in this special series called The Food Detectives.

00:10In this episode, we're following the team fighting counterfeit olive oil in Italy.

00:23Every drop of olive oil has its own story.

00:27But sometimes what looks like the real deal is in fact counterfeit.

00:32L'olio d'oliva è il cibo che è più soggetto ad adulterazioni a frodi tra tutti i generali alimentari.

00:42È facile miscelarlo con oli valore minore, con oli di semi, con altri composti che ne alterano la qualità.

00:52Such fraud may impact consumer health and it's done for easy profit.

00:57Prezzo dell'olio può variare da poco a un altissimo valore.

01:02Quindi c'è una grossa forchetta all'interno del quale si possono verificare le frodi.

01:06Questo viene aggravato dal fatto che la catena del valore dell'olio è estremamente frammentata.

01:12So, olive oil maker Antonella Meyer-Mashrilli is working with the food detectives from the EU's Watson project in their mission to beat fraud.

01:22Her secret weapon is genetic code.

01:25She uses DNA tests to guarantee the identity of her oils.

01:30Abbiamo scelto di far analizzare i nostri oli nel DNA per creare più trasparenza, più fiducia con i nostri consumatori.

01:40Molti produttori fanno marketing con foto di alberi millenari, ma alla fine non si tratta di olio di questi alberi.

01:50E noi, per renderci credibili, abbiamo questa certificazione.

01:54Perché è una certezza in più che diamo ai nostri consumatori.

02:06Such genetic testing is still very rare among olive oil producers, as it takes time and money.

02:13Until today, it's only been done in research labs.

02:16But the food detectives are now bringing the lab directly to the mill.

02:20Release our DNA.

02:22Greek biotech experts Stelios Ahondakis and Savir Tsikoraki

02:26are developing a solution to make DNA testing more accessible and easier to carry out.

02:31We just opened the door for the first time in the world to do a DNA testing of an olive oil outside of a lab.

02:41We are introducing a device called field DNA.

02:45This device allows to isolate DNA from an olive oil sample in field conditions.

02:53So that's it. We are ready to analyse our DNA.

02:57The food detectives' portable DNA kit still needs refining.

03:03But it's on the right track.

03:05The development of a technology is always a challenge.

03:10Because you need to validate, you need to test it, you need to optimise until you reach a good performance.

03:17And be sure that you have something that is solid.

03:20It is a path that we are under now, we are investigating.

03:24Hopefully to be able to launch this product within the next month, year.

03:30Producers, millers and packagers across Umbria welcome the innovation.

03:37It's the base. It's what can help us, we olive oil farmers, to protect the territory and the product we do.

03:48To have an analysis that guarantees that that product comes from that plant.

03:53It's the most beautiful thing we can do.

03:55Watson's project gives us clarity and clarity.

03:58And the consumer is asking and looking for it more.

04:04Following the DNA tests, the food detectives are taking traceability one step further

04:10by giving each bottle a digital passport too.

04:13All the data that, during the production of olive oil production, are collected in the blockchain.

04:20But they are made accessible to the consumer.

04:24The consumer can easily access through Aquair Code to the history of olive oil.

04:31From the field where olive oil are being produced,

04:34to the number of the bottle that is acquired.

04:38That's it for this episode of the Food Detectives.
