Titre français : Risques liées à la présence de substances indésirables dans l'alimentation animale et les produits animaux

Résumé : Meat and other animal food products meet specific nutritional needs that may not be as well served by diets consisting mainly or wholly of plant origin food. However, animal feed or forage could be the source of infections or intoxication for farm animals that can reduce efficiency in production, cause poor feed utilization and ultimately lead to human illness. This article reviews the major sources of microbial and chemical contamination of animal products through feed, and argues for the need for the establishment of strong regulatory programs developed from well thought-out food and feed quality and safety control strategies. It reviews the major standards, codes and guidelines that have been established by the Codex Alimentarius Commission to protect the health and economic interest of consumers and to facilitate international trade in feedstuffs and animal products. Guidelines are now in the process of being developed specifically for animal feeding, by the new Codex Ad hoc Intergovernmental Task Force on Animal Feeding established in July 1999.
