| Summary: | This article systematically compared the differences in safety standards for edible vegetable oils among China and international organizations, countries, and regions such as the Codex Alimentarius Commission, the European Union, the United States, Japan, Australia and New Zealand, Singapore, India, South Korea, and Russia from four safety indicators, including contaminant limits, mycotoxin limits, food additive limits, and pesticide residue limits. The study found that: in terms of contaminants, the number of contaminant types is less than foreign standards, heavy metal limits are basically consistent with foreign standards. The limit for benzo[a]pyrene is higher than foreign standards. In terms of mycotoxins, Chinese limits for aflatoxin B1 in peanut oil and corn oil are higher than foreign standards. In terms of food additives, Chinese standards are generally at the same level as CAC standards in terms of indicators, and in terms of types, China has fewer varieties. In terms of pesticide maximum residue limits, China has far more types of pesticide residues regulated in edible vegetable oils than other countries, and the limits are stricter than other countries, with only 3 types of pesticides having higher limits than other countries. It is suggested that China adjust the indicators of benzo[a]pyrene, 3-chloropropanol ester, glycidyl ester, aflatoxin B1, and increase the limit value of zearalenone in the subsequent revision of relevant standards. |
