欧盟评估红坚木提取物作为所有动物饲料添加剂的安全性和有效性

 

　　经过评估，专家小组得出结论，在建议的饲料使用条件下使用提取物预计不会对环境造成风险。由于白坚木及其制剂被认为可以给食物调味，其在饲料中的功能与在食物中的功能基本相同，因此认为没有必要进一步证明其功效。部分原文报道如下：

 

　　Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of an extract of condensed tannins from Schinopsis balansae Engl. and Schinopsis lorentzii (Griseb.) Engl. (red quebracho extract) when used as a sensory additive in feed and water for drinking for all animal species. The EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concluded that the additive under assessment is safe up to the maximum proposed use levels of 400 mg/kg for chickens for fattening and other growing poultry, 600 mg/kg for laying hens and other laying/breeding birds kept for egg production/reproduction, 540 mg/kg for turkeys for fattening, 720 mg/kg for piglets, 860 mg/kg for pigs for fattening and other growing Suidae, 1,050 mg/kg for sows, 1,680 mg/kg for veal calves (milk replacer), 1,580 mg/kg for cattle for fattening and other growing ruminants, 1,030 mg/kg for dairy cows and other dairy ruminants, 1,580 mg/kg for sheep, goats, horses, 630 mg/kg for rabbits, 1,810 mg/kg for salmonids and other fin fish, 1,900 mg/kg for dogs and 3,000 mg/kg for ornamental fish. For cats, the calculated safe concentration in feed is 317 mg/kg complete feed. For all the other minor species, the additive is considered safe at 317 mg/kg complete feed. The FEEDAP Panel considered the use in water for drinking as safe provided that the total daily intake of the additive does not exceed the daily amount that is considered safe when consumed via feed. No concerns for consumers were identified following the use of the additive at the maximum proposed use level in feed. The extract under assessment is not an eye irritant but in the absence of data, no conclusion can be drawn on its potential to be a skin irritant and a dermal and respiratory sensitiser. The use of the extract under the proposed conditions of use in feed was not expected to pose a risk for the environment. Since quebracho and its preparations were recognised to flavour food and its function in feed would be essentially the same as that in food, no further demonstration of efficacy was considered necessary.
