食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊   據(jù)歐盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，5月7日歐盟食品安全局就活性物質(zhì)鐵粉、活性炭、煅燒高嶺土、氯化鈉、交聯(lián)聚丙烯酸鈉鹽、氯化鈣作為活性系統(tǒng)用于食品接觸材料的安全性評估發(fā)表科學(xué)意見。

　　專家組經(jīng)過評估得出結(jié)論認(rèn)為，該活性系統(tǒng)的使用不會對人體健康構(gòu)成威脅。

　　部分原文報(bào)道如下：

　　The CEF Panel concluded that the use of substances iron powder, activated carbon, calcined kaolin, sodium chloride, polyacrylic acid, sodium salt, crosslinked and calcium chloride does not raise a safety concern when used in oxygen absorbers in labels, which prevent the physical release of their content into the food. When placed in the headspace of the packaging or when used in direct contact with foods, the labels should not intentionally or unintentionally come into direct contact with liquid foods or foods that have an external aqueous phase on the surface such as sliced fruits.

　　Activated carbon should in addition comply with the same purity requirements as for Vegetable Carbon （E 153） set out by Commission Regulation （EU） No 231/2012 with exception of ash content which can be up to 10 % （w/w）。

　　Iron is a natural constituent of foods. Iron compounds are also used as food additives, nutrient sources and for other purposes. The Commission may wish to take note of this if setting a restriction for iron.
