China Consults on Procedures for Evaluating the Safety of Bacterial Cultures for Food Use
Feb 17, 2023
Lennie Tao
At present, there’s no national standard in China regulating the safety evaluation procedures of bacterial strains for food use.
“Health food” and “novel food ingredient” are deleted from the application scope in this draft.
Requirements become more flexible. For example, besides the test methods specified in the draft, stakeholders are also allowed to adopt other methods which have equivalent effect.
Materials related to genetic stability are newly required.
On February 13, 2023, China opened 38 national food safety standards for consultation, involving standards related to complementary baby foods, foods for special medical purposes (FSMP), food additives, food contact materials (FCM), contaminants, etc. Any comments can be sent back prior to March 20, 2023 via online system. Read the full list of the 38 standards and analysis to other standards at China Unveils 38 National Food Safety Standard Drafts.
