食品伙伴網(wǎng)導(dǎo)讀，據(jù)英國(guó)食品標(biāo)準(zhǔn)局官網(wǎng)8月4日最新消息，該機(jī)構(gòu)對(duì)從美國(guó)進(jìn)口的八個(gè)克隆牛胚胎及其后代進(jìn)行了追溯，這八個(gè)胚胎全部是荷蘭乳牛Holstein品種。其中4頭公牛，4頭母牛。
FSA已確認(rèn)來(lái)自第二頭公牛Parable（中文：寓言）（生于2007.5，被宰殺于2010.5.5）的肉已進(jìn)入食品供應(yīng)市場(chǎng)，并且之前所確認(rèn)的另一只叫做鄧迪傘兵的公牛已于2009年被宰殺，這兩頭公牛的肉已經(jīng)確認(rèn)被消費(fèi)者所食。該局已于8月3日確認(rèn)第三只叫做鄧迪完美的公牛于7月27日被宰殺，但它肉已被阻止進(jìn)入市場(chǎng)。而第四只公牛在其1月大時(shí)就已夭折，其肉未進(jìn)入市場(chǎng)，而是按照法律規(guī)定的方法處置。
四頭母牛之一，鄧迪天堂，目前在被養(yǎng)在英國(guó)奶牛場(chǎng)，食品標(biāo)準(zhǔn)局被告知，目前沒(méi)有任何證據(jù)證明產(chǎn)自該牛的牛奶進(jìn)入市場(chǎng)。
該局已經(jīng)追溯另外2頭母牛，它們?cè)谛笕褐斜伙曫B(yǎng)，但目前無(wú)法確定是否來(lái)自這2頭母牛的牛奶已進(jìn)入食物供應(yīng)。地方政府官員目前正在訪問(wèn)這2頭母牛的飼養(yǎng)農(nóng)場(chǎng)。第四母牛牛犢在不到一個(gè)月大時(shí)夭折，其肉未進(jìn)入市場(chǎng)，而是按照法律規(guī)定的方法處置。
該機(jī)構(gòu)還一直在跟蹤這8頭牛的后代。目前它們的后代都太年輕，無(wú)法擠奶或用于繁殖。該機(jī)構(gòu)提醒飼養(yǎng)這些動(dòng)物的農(nóng)場(chǎng)主，如果他們想生產(chǎn)來(lái)自這些動(dòng)物的食品，他們需要尋求新型食品法規(guī)的授權(quán)。

Update on cloned animals and their offspring
Wednesday 4 August 2010
The Food Standards Agency is updating on its investigation into reports that products from the offspring of cloned animals have entered the food chain.
While there is no evidence that consuming products from healthy clones, or their offspring, poses a food safety risk, meat and products from clones and their offspring are considered novel foods and would therefore need to be authorised before being placed on the market.
The Agency has traced all of the calves born in the UK from eight embryos harvested from a cloned cow in the US. Four of these embryos resulted in male calves and four were female; all were the Holstein breed of cattle.
The FSA can confirm that meat from a second bull, Parable, has entered the food chain. Parable was born in May 2007 and was slaughtered 5 May 2010. This is in addition to the confirmation given yesterday that meat from another of the bulls, Dundee Paratrooper, entered the food chain in 2009. Meat from both of these animals will have been eaten.
The Agency confirmed yesterday a third bull (Dundee Perfect) was slaughtered on 27 July 2010 and its meat has been prevented from entering the food chain.
The fourth male calf died at about one month old. No meat or products from this young animal entered the food chain and its carcass was disposed of in accordance with the law.
Of the four female cows, Dundee Paradise is alive on a UK dairy farm. Following a visit from local authority officials, the Agency has been informed that there is no evidence milk from this animal has entered the food chain.
The Agency has traced two other cows that we believe are being kept as part of dairy herds but at present we cannot confirm whether or not milk from these animals has entered the food chain. Local authority officials are visiting the farms on which these animals are kept.
The fourth female calf died at less than a month old. No meat or products from this young animal entered the food chain and its carcass was disposed of in accordance with the law.
The Agency has also been working to trace offspring from these eight animals. At present any offspring will be too young to be milked or to be used for breeding purposes. The Agency is reminding farmers with these animals that in order to produce food products from them they will need to seek authorisation under the Novel Food Regulations.
