Guideline Content of Presentation Roles and Responsibility of Thai FDA From Research to Regulation for Food Safety: Case Studies 1

Food Safety Problems and Challenges in Thailand Burden and Emerging of Food-Related Illness Harmonization on Food Safety and Quality Standards of International Food Trade. Lack of Knowledge and Appropriated Practices in SME/ OTOP cause Microbial Contamination. Changing in Lifestyles, including Rapid Urbanization Food Innovation and health claim. 10

2 Microbial Contaminants in Drinking Water in Sealed Container 3 Revising Maximum Limits of microbial pathogen in Foods 4 Revising Maximum Level of Food Additives 1 Contamination of C. botulinum in Preserved Bamboo Shoots From Research to Regulation for Food Safety 5 Universal Salt Iodization Institute of Nutrition 10

1 Contamination of C. botulinum in Preserved Bamboo Shoots Incident of Botulinum Outbreak in Nan Province in B.E. 2549 Lack of Appropriated Practices in OTOP/ Household (90%). 11

1 Contamination of C. botulinum in Preserved Bamboo Shoots How to Overcome the Problem Thai FDA/ Provincial Public Health Office Stakeholders in Province/ Local Institute of Nutrition Knowledge Appropriated Technology for SME (Acidified Products) Regulation and Education Guideline Inspection and Surveillance System Good Practices for SME Promote Compliances: Acidified Products Producers Household level Follow Regulation and guideline for Acidified Bamboo Shoots Products Wholesalers/ Retailers Sell Acidified Bamboo Shoots products and show all needed information on label Consumers Read Label and Buy Acidified Bamboo Shoot Products 12

2 Contamination of Drinking Water in Sealed Container Contamination of drinking water in bottling plant Lacking of Knowledge Low technology 30% of Microbial Contamination Needs Research 14

2 Microbial Contaminants in Drinking Water in Sealed Container How to Overcome the Problem by Supporting from the Academic o Research in Appropriated Process Control and Sanitation Measure (De-fluoridation). o Design and Develop Appropriate Technology for SME. o Training Center for Small Businesses to do a Good Practice. o Publish Printed Media and Materials to Producers and all Stakeholders. 15

3 Revising Maximum Limits of Microbial Pathogen in Foods (Old Version) Notification of Ministry of Public Health on Maximum Levels of some Microorganisms in Food Products กฎกระทรวง There was only the Standard for Sanitary Indicator Bacteria such as; Coliform, E.coli, Yeast and Mold In Food Products shall not Detect Pathogen such as; Bacillus cereus, Clostridium perfringens, Salmonella spp., and Staphylococcus aureus Requiring the Limit Levels of Pathogen to Comply with International Standards. 20

Research Result: Model to Estimate the Maximum Levels of Microbial Pathogens in Foods Growth Factors; ph, Aw, Generation time, Infective dose, Temp Y=X*2 n Y = Infective dose X = Maximum residue levels of microorganism in a portion size which no harmful to human health n = Generation time Related information - Food Properties - International Standards Propose; Notification of Ministry of Public Health on the Maximum Levels of Microbial Pathogen in Food Products 17

3 Update Maximum Level of Food Additives Notification of Ministry of Public Health on Food Additives Provided the Maximum Use Levels of Food Additives Codex has Reviewed and published the GENERAL STANDARD FOR FOOD ADDITIVES (GSFA) Needs to adapt the guideline to reduce international trade disruption. 23

3 Information Supporting to Update Maximum Level of Food Additives Review information for Toxicological Evaluation Toxicological data Epidemiological study others data National Survey A. Food consumption data B. Maximum Level(mg/kg of food) ADI Acceptable daily intake - mg/ kg bw Proposed quality and standard) Exposure Assessment Total Exposure of Food Additives in food = Food consumption data x Maximum Level ( A ) ( B ) Risk Characterization Risk = Risk < 1 Total Exposure of Food Additives in food ADI Therefore at the ML set forth, Thai populations are safe Proposed Regulation on Food additives: Maximum Use Levels in Food Products 19

5 Universal Salt Iodization Situation; Iodine Deficiency is the Main Cause of Impaired Brain and Cognitive Development among people at all age. Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD) have been Recognized as a Serious Public Health Problem in Thailand in the Past Decade Problem Solving Techniques; Awareness and Perception on Iodized Salts among Stakeholders : Gov., Processers, Academics Appropriated Technology and QA/QC Inspection and Surveillance system 26

Study on the Awareness and Perception of all Stakeholders on Universal Salt Iodization College of Nursing (Boromarajonani) Technology (mixing machine) Development the mixing machine model Univ. (KMITL) Quality Control System Study on analytical method for I 2 Univ. (KMITL, INMU) Propose; - Regulation on universal Salt Iodization -Quality Control System Improvement the mixing machine and Development 3 Learning Centers Improvement salt producer s potential Result: Appropriated Technology Univ. (INMU) Univ. (INMU) Support 100 mixing machines for salt producers Guideline for Authority officer and salt producer -Production -QA & QC Univ. (INMU) Result QA & QC system 21

The academic institute is an essential stakeholders of Thai FDA includes; Research Generation: Knowledge Research Compilation: Develop Regulation and Guideline/ Recommendation Research Dissemination: Training and Consultation 22
