据欧盟食品安全局(EFSA)消息,近日欧盟食品安全局分别就孔雀石绿用于食品的安全性进行了评估。
7月27日欧盟食品安全局评估了孔雀石绿(MG)用于水产品中的安全性问题。研究了鱼、甲壳类水产品中孔雀石绿与其主要代谢物隐色孔雀绿(LMG)的限量问题。经过评估,欧盟食品安全局得出结论认为,孔雀石绿与其主要代谢物隐色孔雀绿(LMG)在水产品限量2μg/kg不存在健康问题。
部分原文报道如下:
Malachite green (MG) has been used globally in aquaculture but is not registered for use in food-producing animals in the European unio. The European Commission requested EFSA to evaluate whether a reference point for action (RPA) of 2 μg/kg for the sum of MG and its major metabolite leucomalachite green (LMG) is adequate to protect public health. Available occurrence data were not suitable for a reliable exposure assessment.
