The article presents, from a comparative perspective, the results of a hygienic assessment of food safety indicators for food raw materials and food products sold in Samarkand Region (Uzbekistan) in 2020-2021. More than 24,000 analyses have been carried out to detect toxic elements, pesticides and their residues, mycotoxins, nitrates, nitrites and their derivatives, antibiotics, preservatives and colourants, as well as compounds from longterm storage and high temperature treatment of food products. It has been established that food raw materials and food products, in general, meet hygienic safety requirements. On average, during the study period, the number of samples with deviations from the maximum permissible concentrations was in the range of 4.4-6.3%.
