食品伙伴网讯    据欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，应欧盟委员会的要求，欧盟食品安全局就紫外线辐照牛奶的安全进行评估。

    这种新型食品为牛奶（生鲜、半脱脂或脱脂），在灭菌后用紫外线进行辐照处理，以延长货架期。紫外处理会导致维生素D3浓度增加。欧盟食品安全局评估发现，辐照奶营养不会打折扣，也不存在安全问题，与传统牛奶的过敏反应相比也没有不同。因此按照规定条件进行紫外处理的牛奶是安全的。

    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 an opinion on UV-treated milk as a novel food submitted pursuant to Regulation （EC） No 258/97, taking into account the comments and objections of a scientific nature raised by Member States. The novel food is cow's milk （whole, semi-skimmed or skimmed） to which a treatment with ultraviolet （UV） radiation is applied after pasteurisation in order to extend the shelf life of the milk. This treatment results in an increase in the vitamin D3 concentrations. The Panel considers that the provided compositional data, the specifications and the data from batch testing do not give rise to safety concerns.
