欧盟评估丙酸钠作为所有陆生动物饲料添加剂的授权更新申请
食品伙伴网讯 2024年8月7日,欧盟食品安全局(EFSA)发布消息,欧盟食品安全局(EFSA)发布关于丙酸钠(sodium propionate)作为所有陆生动物饲料添加剂的授权更新申请的评估。 经过评估,专家小组得出结论,该添加剂在授权使用条件下对目标物种、消费者和环境都是安全的。在授权更新的情况下,无需评估添加剂的功效。部分原文报道如下: Sodium propionate is authorised containing at least 98.5% of sodium propionate. The applicants requested for the renewal of the authorisation of sodium propionate when used as a feed additive for all terrestrial animal species. The applicant has provided evidence that the additive in the market complies with the conditions of the authorisation. The Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP Panel) confirms that the use of sodium propionate under the current authorised conditions of use is safe for the target species, the consumers and the environment. Considering the user safety, the additive is corrosive to skin, eyes and respiratory tract, but is not a skin sensitiser. There is no need for assessing the efficacy of the additive in the context of the renewal of the authorisation.
