Recently, the Market Supervision Administration of Hainan Province issued a notice about 13 batches of substandard food, which attracted wide attention.
According to the notice, the Market Supervision Administration of Hainan Province found a batch of food products that did not meet food safety standards during the organisation of food safety supervision and sampling. Among them, furacilinum metabolite was detected in mussels sold by Yazhen Seafood Stall in Lingshui Xincun. According to relevant regulations, furazolidone is a kind of drug whose use is prohibited in food animals, while furacilinum metabolite is a substance produced after its metabolism. Prolonged consumption of large quantities of food products in which furazolidone metabolite was detected may pose serious health hazards.
It is understood that furazolidone is metabolised in animals to produce furacilinum metabolites, which may accumulate in the human body and cause a range of adverse reactions. These include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, headache, dizziness and other symptoms, which may even be life-threatening in serious cases. Therefore, the detection of furacilinum metabolites in food does not meet the requirements of food safety standards.
In response to the notification of substandard food, the Hainan Provincial Market Supervision Administration has asked relevant enterprises and operators to immediately remove from the shelves, recall substandard products, and carry out rectification. At the same time, the bureau will also strengthen food safety supervision to ensure that the food on the market meets national safety standards and protects the dietary safety of consumers.
