Conn. Agencies Regs. § 21a-115-6 - Examination of samples
(a) For the purpose
of this section the term "examination," as applied to samples collected,
includes analyses or tests or other examinations.
(b) When an officer or employee of the
commissioner of consumer protection collects a sample of a food, drug or
cosmetic for examination under the act, he shall collect at least twice the
quantity estimated by him to be sufficient for examination, unless (1) the
amount of the article available and reasonably accessible for sampling is less
than twice the quantity so estimated; (2) the cost of twice the quantity so
estimated exceeds five dollars; (3) the article is perishable; (4) the
examination consists principally of rapid analytical procedures, organoleptic
examination, or other field inspection examinations or tests, made at the place
where the sample is collected or in a mobile or temporary laboratory.
(c) The Connecticut Agricultural Experiment
Station or the state department of health is authorized to destroy (1) any
sample when they determine that no examination of such sample will be made; (2)
any sample or part thereof when the commissioner determines that no notice
under subsection (b) of section
21a-97
of the general statutes, and no case under the act, is or will be based on such
sample; (3) any sample or part thereof when the sample was the basis of a
notice under said subsection (b) of section
21a-97
and when, after opportunity for presentation of views following such notice,
the commissioner determines that no other such notice, and no case under the
act, is or will be based on such sample; (4) any sample or part thereof when
the sample was the basis of a case under the act which has gone to final
judgment, and when the commissioner determines that no other such case is or
will be based on such sample; (5) any sample or part thereof if the article is
perishable; (6) any sample or part thereof when, after collection, such sample
or part has become decomposed or otherwise unfit for examination.
