China Will Make a Public Appearance of National Egg Standard
China¡¯s first national egg standard will make a public appearance.
In the new pollution-free egg national standard, there is
a maximum limitation standard for toxic and hazard materials,
especially it stipulates that eggs should not check out chloramphenicol,
furazolidone and salmonella that are hazard to human health.
Journalist learned from the national standard approval conference
of ¡°Agricultural Product Safety and Quality: Safety Requirement
for Pollution-Free Egg¡± and ¡°Agricultural Product Safety and
Quality: Producing Area and Environment Requirement for Pollution-Free
Egg¡± that the first issue of national standard of egg is estimated
to make its public appearance recently after its approval,
By then, chicken producing enterprises will be compulsory
to implement this standard. In addition, according to introduction
by relevant person, the main body of commercial chicken egg
production is still small-size rural farmers. The control
of infectious disease is very difficult and misuse of drugs
and violation of drug administration is very serious. And
eggs are inevitable to have drug residue problems. In addition,
salmonella and other pathogenic bacteria pollution problem
exist in eggs. This has very significant effect on the hygiene
and quality of eggs and has great effect on the export of
eggs from China.
