英国就海藻油作为DHA来源用于婴儿及较大婴儿配方食品征求意见

    食品伙伴网讯  据英国食品标准局消息，9月30日英国食品标准局就海藻油作为DHA来源用于婴儿及较大婴儿配方食品征求意见，征求意见截止2013年10月20日。

    目前婴儿配方食品中的DHA通常是金枪鱼油或寇氏隐甲藻（Crypthecodinium cohnii）中提取的。

    本次申请从裂殖壶菌（Schizochytrium sp）中提取DHA.

    部分原文报道如下：

    A company has applied to the Food Standards Agency to widen the use of algal oil under the Novel Food Regulation （EC） No. 258/97. Views are wanted on the company's application. The deadline for sending comments is Sunday 20 October 2013.

    This oil, which is rich in the omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid （DHA）， is extracted from a newly isolated strain of the microalgae, and the company, DSM Nutritional Products, proposes to use the oil primarily as a source of DHA in infant and follow on formula.

    The DHA that is currently used in infant formula is typically extracted from tuna fish oil or from a microalgae, Crypthecodinium cohnii.
