阪崎肠杆菌-食品安全控制的新目标

自 196 1年英国首次报道阪崎肠杆菌引起婴儿脑膜炎病例以来 ,世界上相继有多个国家报道了新生儿阪崎肠杆菌感染事件 ,婴儿配方奶粉与疾病的暴发密切相关。在 2 0 0 3年第 35次食品卫生法典大会上 ,美国和加拿大提出了有关控制婴幼儿配方奶粉中阪崎肠杆菌的危险性框架 ,指出 1岁以下的易感婴幼儿感染阪崎肠杆菌后有生命危险。 2 0 0 4年第 36次食品卫生法典大会一致通过并设立了以加拿大为首的起草工作组 ,加速修订婴幼儿食品国际卫生操作规范 ,制定阪崎肠杆菌和其它可能导致婴幼儿健康危害的相关病原菌的微生物标准。

A new food safety objective for controlling Enterobacter sakazakii

Since 1961, two cases of Enterobacter sakazakii meningitis in neonates were reported in the United Kingdom, more outbreaks of Enterobacter sakazakii meningitis in neonates were frequently reported from various countries worldwide. The relative contribution of powdered infant formula sources to the burden of E. sakazakii disease was considered. At the 35th Codex Committee on Food Hygiene, the United States and Canada updated the Risk Profile of Enterobacter sakazakii in Powdered Infant Formula in 2003. In 2004, the 36th Codex Committee on Food Hygiene agreed and set a working group, lead by Canada, with assistance of other countries to proceed with the revision of the International Code of Hygienic Practice for Foods for Infants and Children and to develop the microbiological criteria on E. sakazakii and other relevant microorganisms. The Committee agreed to proceed with this work as quickly as possible.
