Does Safe Catch test for radiation?

We do test for radiation. We do not test every fish but submit samples of the finished product to accredited 3rd party labels to test for radiation. Our most recent analysis was conducted on April 4th, 2019. Our Elite wild tuna, Ahi Yellowfin, and Salmon products were tested for the presence of harmful radionuclides that include Cesium-134, Cesium-137, and Iodine–131, which are considered to be the radionuclides of greatest concern to the food supply following a nuclear power plant accident. There was NO detectable presence of ANY of the aforementioned radionuclides found in our Elite, Ahi, or Salmon products. 

In addition to our testing, we have conducted extensive research on cesium and the potential impact of radiation exposure from the Fukushima disaster on wild seafood. The locations and fish types that we are sourcing have not shown any health problems with cesium. We’ve reviewed the data from the FDA which conducted 1,345 screens on products coming from Japan, specifically in regards to Fukushima. 225 of those tests were on seafood products. We’ve also reviewed hundreds of independent tuna tests. These tests show that radiation levels in tuna that we are sourcing are hundreds of times below the FDA level for concern.
