27-Feb-2009 (17 years 3 months 18 days ago)The European Commission adopted today a Regulation providing a derogation to the zero-tolerance approach in case of the detection of bone fragments due to environmental contamination of feed materials of plant origin (for example from rabbits or mice).
The regulation is needed because improvements in laboratory performance have made it possible to detect the adventitious presence of bone fragments, particularly in tuber and root crops due to environmental contamination.
