欧盟就扩大一种裂殖壶菌海藻油的每日摄入剂量发布意见

       据欧盟食品安全局消息，10月9日欧盟食品安全局就扩大新型食品配料-富DHA与EPA的裂殖壶菌海藻油的每日摄入剂量发布了意见。

    应欧委会请求，欧盟食品安全局专家组就扩大这种新型食品配料的使用剂量发布了意见。经过评估欧盟食品安全局认为，当这种新型食品配料当中EPA和DHA的每日摄入量总和不超过5g 时不会对成人构成安全风险。

    部分原文报道如下：

    Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies （NDA） was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on an extension of use for docosahexaenoic acid （DHA） and eicosapentaenoic acid （EPA）-rich algal oil from Schizochytrium sp. as a novel food ingredient （NFI） in the context of Regulation （EC） No 258/97. The NFI is already authorised for use in a range of foodstuffs at specified maximum levels.

    In a previous opinion on the Tolerable Upper Intake Level of EPA, DHA and docosapentaenoic acid （DPA）， the Panel concluded that supplemental intake of EPA and DHA combined at doses up to 5 g/day, does not give rise to safety concerns for adults.
