食品伙伴网讯 据美国食品安全新闻网消息，近日美国印第安纳大学发布一项研究指出，中美两国婴儿食品当中的阻燃剂含量水平具有可比性，均在不安全水平以下。
阻燃剂是一类存在于电子器件、塑料与纺织品当中的一类持久性化学物质，可防止材料着火。近年来，包括多溴联苯醚在内的阻燃剂引起了媒体的关注，它们存在于沙发、座椅与床垫的泡沫垫内。
部分原文报道如下：
The levels of flame retardant chemicals in baby food from the U.S. and China are well below levels considered unsafe, according to a new study conducted by researchers at the Indiana University School of Public and Environmental Affairs （SPEA）。
In fact, the levels of flame retardants in baby food are lower than those in other foods such as meats, dairy products, and even human breast milk.
Flame retardants are persistent chemicals found in electronics, plastics and textiles that keep the materials from easily catching fire. The compounds, including polybrominated diphenyl ethers （PBDEs）， have gained heightened media attention in recent years for their presence in the foam cushions of couches, chairs and mattresses.
