Shaanxi Chestnut Sea Group (hereinafter referred to as "Lihai") 45 days of rapid chicken "hormone door" turmoil has not subsided, recently, it has been referred to the broiler to eat antibiotics. This seems to tear another "hole": the use of antibiotics in the livestock and poultry is not an isolated case, but the general phenomenon of the industry. Food Safety research experts yesterday to the "First financial daily" reporter said that China may be the world's livestock and poultry abuse of antibiotics in one of the most serious, and the abuse of antibiotics may lead to a variety of meat, dairy products antibiotics exceeded the human organs, but also may have resistance to the emergence of bacterial groups. It is understood that after being accused of eating antibiotics, Lihai to the relevant media, the chicken to eat antibiotics, just as people are sick to take medicine, is not unacceptable, in line with the standard of use, the impact of health can be neglected. However, Zhu Yi, an associate professor at the School of Food Science and nutrition engineering, China Agricultural University, told reporters that in livestock and poultry farming, antibiotic abuse is possible, and China's poultry meat containing antibiotics is not strict, it is easy to lead to antibiotics over the poultry meat into the market. Dongqingli, an associate professor of food safety at Shanghai Institute of Technology, says that countries such as Europe and the United States have strict restrictions on the use of antibiotics in livestock and poultry farming, and the World Health Organization has set up a coalition of cautious antibiotics, whose members include more than 90 countries, with stringent means to restrict or even prohibit the application Sweden became the first country in 1986 to partially disable the AGP (antibiotic growth promoter) in animal feed. Since January 1, 2006, the EU has fully implemented this ban. Similar laws and regulations have been introduced in the United States and Japan to restrict or prohibit the use of antibiotics in feed. McDonald's related officials said the company is strictly prohibited poultry meat suppliers in the process of adding antibiotics. Dongqingli told reporters that our country in the livestock and poultry feed restrictions on the addition of antibiotics is not mandatory. "China has not yet a comprehensive ban on animal feed in order to promote growth for the purpose of adding antibiotics regulations, to some extent, to contribute to the abuse of antibiotics." "The industry has revealed that many aquaculture enterprises have the use of antibiotics, including large, well-known meat enterprises under the farms are hard to promise not to add antibiotics to feed." McDonald's officials said that for some reason the company has canceled the cooperation with the Li Hai Group. KFC said the company still has 1% of the purchase of meat from the Chestnut group, but the past food records are normal. For two will detect meat antibiotic content, as of press, two have failed to give a clear answer.
