欧盟就碘代罂粟油乙酯用作碘强化剂的安全性发布声明

    食品伙伴网讯  据欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，应欧委会的要求，3月7日欧盟食品安全局专家组就碘代罂粟油乙酯（iodized ethyl esters of poppy seed oil）用作碘强化剂的安全性发布了声明。

    经过相关的评估，欧盟专家组认为，目前缺少相关的动力学数据以及动态特性数据，因此尚不能得出碘代罂粟油乙酯用作碘强化剂以及其中碘生物利用度的结论。

    部分原文报道如下：

    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.
