Melamine Contamination in China

11/13/2008  FDA 는 우유가 함유된 중국산 모든 제품에 대하여 통관 중지 지시를 내렸다.
중국산 수입제품에 대해 멜라민이 오염되어 있지 않다는 사실이 입증될 때까지 통관을 보류한다고 밝혔다.
 
더 나아가 FDA 는 멜라민 오염 가능성이 있는 우유성분이 포함된 제품을 넘어, 단백질이 함유된 제품에 대한 검사도 할 예정이다. 추가 멜라민 검출이 없다 하더라고 FDA는 적절한 규정법을 취할 것이라고 밝혔다.  
November 13, 2008: As part of its ongoing strategy to address the present problem with melamine contamination of consumer products exported from the People’s Republic of China, FDA has expanded its import controls on Chinese dairy products, and food and feed products manufactured in China that contain dairy ingredients.
 
Since Oct. 10, 2008, FDA has had an import alert in place for specific products found contaminated with melamine and melamine-related compounds.
 
FDA has collected additional information on the scope of the melamine contamination problem in China, and determined a countrywide import alert is warranted.
 
This action will help ensure that only Chinese dairy products and food and feed products manufactured in China that contain dairy ingredients are not contaminated with melamine and melamine-related compounds reach U.S. consumers.
 
No adverse health effects have been reported in the United States from contamination with melamine of dairy products or dairy containing products.
 
But melamine is not approved for direct addition to human or animal foods and no manufacturer is allowed to deliberately add it to any food for U.S. consumers.
 
As part of ongoing activities, FDA will also examine a range of protein-containing products beyond just dairy and dairy-containing products for contamination with melamine and melamine-related compounds. FDA will continue to take appropriate regulatory action if these efforts uncover additional contamination.
