欧盟评估艾蒿酊剂作为所有动物饲料感官添加剂的安全性

 

　　经过评估，专家小组得出结论，该添加剂在建议使用水平（400mg/kg）下对所有动物物种是安全的。在动物营养中按建议的使用水平应用添加剂后，没有发现消费者安全的问题。部分原文报道如下：

 

　　The tincture derived from Artemisia vulgaris L. （Mugwort tincture） is intended to be used as a sensory additive in feed for all animal species. The product is a water/ethanol solution, with a dry matter content of approximately 1.7% and is specified to contain a minimum of 0.01% hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives （expressed as chlorogenic acid）。 In a previous assessment, the additive was not characterised in full and about 74% of the dry matter fraction remained uncharacterised （representing 1.24% of the tincture）。 Therefore, the Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed （FEEDAP ） could not conclude on the safety of the additive at the proposed use levels of up to 400 mg/kg complete feed for all animal species or for the consumer. The applicant has provided new data which show that the unidentified fraction consists of crude fibre, other carbohydrates, and protein; none of which are considered of concern. Consequently, the Panel concludes that the additive is safe when used at the proposed use level of 400 mg/kg feed for all animal species. No concerns for consumer safety were identified following the application of the additive at the proposed use level in animal nutrition.
