3 Technical Requirements

3.1 Raw material requirements

3.1.1The raw materials used in the product shall comply with the corresponding safety standards and/or relevant provisions, and shall ensure the safety of infants and meet their nutritional needs. The substances that are detrimental to the nutrition and health of infants shall not be used.

3.1.2The raw materials and food additives used shall not contain gluten.

3.1.3Hydrogenated oil and fat shall not be used.

3.1.4Raw materials treated by irradiation shall not be used.

3.3.2The energy contained in each 100 mL of the product under the ready-to-eat state shall fall within the range of 250 kJ (60 kcal)~295 kJ (70 kcal). For calculation of energy, the content of protein, fat and carbohydrate per 100 mL of the product is multiplied by the energy coefficient of 17 kJ/g, 37 kJ/g and 17 kJ/g (8 kJ/g for dietary fiber) respectively, and the obtained sum expressed in kJ/100 mL is divided by 4.184 to obtain a value expressed in kcal/100 mL.

3.3.3The content of protein, fat and carbohydrate contained per 100 kJ (100 kcal) of the product shall comply with the provisions of Table 1.

3.3.4For infant formula, fructose and sucrose shall not be used as the source of carbohydrate, while appropriate amount of glucose polymer may be added (the starch can be added only after pre-gelatinization); for milk-based infant formula, lactose shall be preferred as the source of carbohydrate (lactose shall account for ≥90% of the carbohydrate).
