食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊  據(jù)歐盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，應(yīng)歐委會(huì)的要求，3月7日歐盟食品安全局專(zhuān)家組就碘代罌粟油乙酯（iodized ethyl esters of poppy seed oil）用作碘強(qiáng)化劑的安全性發(fā)布了聲明。

    經(jīng)過(guò)相關(guān)的評(píng)估，歐盟專(zhuān)家組認(rèn)為，目前缺少相關(guān)的動(dòng)力學(xué)數(shù)據(jù)以及動(dòng)態(tài)特性數(shù)據(jù)，因此尚不能得出碘代罌粟油乙酯用作碘強(qiáng)化劑以及其中碘生物利用度的結(jié)論。

    部分原文報(bào)道如下：

    Following a request from the European Commission to the European Food Safety Authority （EFSA）， the Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food （ANS） was asked to deliver an opinion on the safety of "iodized ethyl esters of poppy seed oil" （ethyl esters of iodinated fatty acids of poppy seed oil, EEIFAPSO） and the bioavailability of the iodine from this source when used for the fortification of vegetable oils with iodine. The safety of iodine itself, in terms of amounts that may be consumed, is outside the remit of this Panel.

    EEIFAPSO are described as a mixture of ethyl palmitate, ethyl stearate, ethyl monoiodostearates, ethyl diiodostearates and ethyl triiodostearates. The source is intended to be added at the concentration of 2.76-3.05 mg of EEIFAPSO per kg of vegetable oil. The iodine content of EEIFAPSO is 37-39 % （w/w） and the resulting final iodine content in the iodine-enriched vegetable oils amounts to 1.021 to 1.190 mg/kg.
