The sanitary and hygienic standards of the Russian Federation (RF), the Eurasian economic Union (EAEU), the China, the European Union and the World Health Organization (WHO) on the content of lead in milk, meat and offal, as well as the maximum permissible levels (MRL) of metal in feed for farm animals established in the RF, the Republic of Belarus, the EAEU and USA are presented. A comparative analysis of national and international standards for lead content in livestock products revealed significant differences. Russia's accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) requires harmonization of national and international standards on the content of lead in livestock products (milk, meat, offal). To ensure food security of the population of the RF (milk, meat and offal) on the basis of sanitary-hygienic standards of WHO, it is necessary to clarify the MRL of lead in feed for farm animals in toxicological studies and to scientifically justify the permissible limits of daily intake of lead with a ration. |
