Mengniu poisonous milk prevailed who passed the quality control negligence carcinogens concept

Mengniu is one of the largest dairy products in China. After the carcinogens were exposed to milk, the dairy industry’s “brothers” were all drastically plunged yesterday. Mengniu’s carcinogenic door made Erie’s quagmire miserable. The AQSIQ announced on the 24th The results of spot checks on the quality of 200 liquid milk products. Spot checks found that Mengniu and Changfu Pure Milk, two products of the aflatoxin M1 project, did not meet the requirements of the standard.

Aflatoxin was designated as a Class 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization's Cancer Research Institute in 1993. At present, a variety of aflatoxins have been isolated and identified. Aflatoxin B1 is often detected in corn and peanuts, and aflatoxin M1 is mainly found in milk. Some dairy experts have stated that aflatoxins in milk are derived from the feed of dairy cows. Even if the amount of aflatoxins in milk is too small, it can cause cancer if they accumulate in the human body.

Dairy shares become “brothers”

Due to the Hong Kong public holiday on the 26th, Mengniu Dairy (02319.HK), which was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, has not opened. The company's stock price fell 1.128% and the closing price was HK$26.30 before the market closed on the 23rd.

However, the A-listed dairy company listed on the 26th was more or less affected by the news and dragged down, Yili shares (joined stocks to participate in simulated stocks) (600,887) performed the most vulnerable, fell 5.36% on the same day to close at 19.79 yuan / share , and the transaction volume was significantly enlarged. Other dairy stocks such as Bright Dairy (joining the self-selected stocks and participating in analog stocks) (600597) and Wong Dairy (joining the self-selected stocks and participating in analog stocks) (002329) also performed poorly, with only three yuan shares (joining the self-selected shares, participating Simulated stocks (600429) rose 0.75 percent against the trend, the closing price of 5.37 yuan / share.

According to the industry, although other well-known dairy companies have not been exposed to substandard problems this time, the food safety hidden dangers that the dairy industry has accumulated for a long time have caused great distrust among consumers. This distrust has spread throughout the industry. Most dairy companies have become "brothers" and it is difficult to completely withdraw from an incident. Although the incident has not caused serious consequences for melamine, the future impact of the incident on the dairy industry needs to be observed. What is certain is that if the domestic dairy industry continues to overdraw the trust of consumers and the market, the industry that has just recovered will fall back into a downturn.

The melamine incident in 2008 once caused the domestic dairy industry to fall into the freezing point. After a long period of downturn, the vitality of the dairy industry basically recovered. Last year, the output of the dairy industry hit a record high. Since the beginning of this year, the domestic dairy products industry has also maintained stable growth. The data show that in November this year, the national output of dairy products was 2.148 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 17.3%, and the growth rate was 7.1 percentage points higher than in October; the cumulative output in January-November was 21.532 million tons. , a year-on-year increase of 13.6%.

However, insiders also said that in 2012, the growth of endogenous income in the dairy industry has faced pressure, and it is expected that the growth rate will be lower than in 2011, and the potential insecurity will further reduce the possibility of continued rapid growth of the dairy industry.

AQSIQ: raw milk must be tested for aflatoxin M1

The relevant person in charge of the AQSIQ stated that it has instructed relevant local quality supervision departments to deal with unqualified products and production enterprises.

According to the Xinhua News Agency, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine requires all dairy products manufacturers to strengthen the supervision of raw milk, and must detect aflatoxin M1 for raw milk and strictly control the quality of production and processing. Up to now, no new report has been received on the excess of aflatoxin M1 in liquid milk.

According to the news of the "Financial Intermediate Station" of the First Financial Bureau, relevant person in charge of the Food Department of the State General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine revealed that the milk in question is a 250 ml boxed milk produced by Meishan Dairy Meishan Branch on October 18 this year. The milk has been completely destroyed.

However, he also stressed that other unchecked milk does not fully represent no problem.

Yesterday, Mengniu Group's major shareholder and chairman of COFCO Ning Gaoning disclosed in the media that although it did not cause any harm, Mengniu did have responsibility. The company needs to reflect on this and COFCO took care of it very carefully.

Aflatoxin-toxic Toxic Aflatoxin Aflatoxin was identified in 1993 as a class 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization's Cancer Research Institute. Among them, aflatoxin B1 is the most toxic and carcinogenic, while aflatoxin M1 is a metabolite of aflatoxin B1. A Ministry of Health official website’s explanatory note on food poisoning states that aflatoxin mainly damages the liver and is very carcinogenic. China’s milk and dairy products require a limit of 0.5 μg/kg for aflatoxin M1.

Wang Dingmian said that melamine is a chemical substance and micro-toxicity. The toxicity of the melamine is not serious after a small amount of human body intake. Aflatoxin is highly toxic and is a strong carcinogen.

Wang Dingmian pointed out that the melamine incident in 2008 was artificially added. The problem with the exceeding of aflatoxin was in the feed.

Gu Zhongyi, a dietitian at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, said that grains are prone to aflatoxin contamination, especially corn and peanuts. In terms of toxicity, aflatoxin is more harmful than melamine.

Aflatoxin M1: Toxicity is comparable to arsenic expert connection What is aflatoxin M1? Yesterday, Professor Fu Liang, deputy director of the Department of Food Science and Engineering at Jinan University, explained in an interview that the aflatoxin M1 is a toxin produced by Aspergillus flavus, which is easily present in many foods such as grain and cereals. The substance is a highly toxic toxin. It can cause death and is more toxic than arsenic when the amount is too large. Even if the amount is small or exceeds the standard, long-term intake can lead to growth retardation and be easily carcinogenic. , especially liver cancer.

According to statistics, Aflatoxin M1 was designated as a carcinogen by the World Health Organization (WHO) Cancer Research Institute in 1993 and is a highly toxic highly toxic substance. The danger of aflatoxins lies in the destruction of human and animal liver tissues, which can lead to liver cancer and even death.

For the detection of excessive aflatoxin M1 in pure milk products, Fu Liang analyzed that the milk contains the substance. First, it may be stored improperly, or it may be contaminated during processing and transportation. The second is that the feed may contain milk. Excessive aflatoxin M1 is transferred to milk during milk production. Tetra Pak pure milk will be sterilized during the production process. Why kill Aflatoxin M1? In this regard, Fu Liang pointed out that the general sterilization of aflatoxin M1 can not kill, it has heat resistance.

Reaction Mengniu: Recognized the results of Zheng Zheng apologized for a batch of product detection problems, Mengniu issued two statements yesterday, the company admits that in the AQSIQ recent national spot checks, Mengniu Meishan factory of a batch of products is Aflatoxin M1 was found to be excessive in the sampling.

“Mengniu Group once again expressed its sincere apologies to the consumers!” Mengniu said that in the future work, it will more stringently and meticulously implement the quality and testing standards of the country and the company, and put a good quality control in every link. .

However, the company did not explain why the aflatoxin M1 exceeded the standard and why aflatoxin M1 was contained in sealed and high-temperature-sterilized pure milk products.

The impact of the stock market Although the incident of aflatoxin did not cause serious consequences for the melamine incident, it is currently limited to Mengniu Dairy. Whether the whole industry has such conditions depends on the results of follow-up spot checks. However, the incident involved food safety. The dairy listed companies affected by this fear may face trials, and short-term A shares related dairy stocks will also have bearish effect.

As of the close, A-share market dairy stocks fell more or less, including leading shares Yili shares fell 5.36% heavy volume, Bright Dairy fell 0.33%, Sanyuan shares rose 0.75% against the market. Mengniu Dairy's suspension of trading of Hong Kong stocks today and tomorrow closed at HK$26.50.
