First, there are problems with substandard food

 

(1) The problem of pesticide residues

 

1.
Beans sold in Jiudi vegetable stall in Zhangshi Town, Qujiang District, Shaoguan City, and eggplant sold by Cai Aiqing vegetable stall in Wengyuan County do not meet the provisions

The ginger and lead (in Pb) sold in Renhua County's Afengcai stall, Xinfeng County's Baohua vegetable stall, and Jiudi vegetable stall in Zhangshi Town, Qujiang District do not meet the provisions of
the national food safety standards.

The standard weight of dried shiitake mushrooms (non-fermented soy products, barbecue flavor) and aluminum residue (dry samples, in Al) sold by Shaoguan Zhongfa Trading Co.
, Ltd.

2.
Analysis of unqualified items

 

1.
Clothianidin: Clothianidin is a high-efficiency, broad-spectrum nicotinic insecticide, with long-term contact killing, gastric toxicity and systemic activity, widely used in a variety of crops
.
After nicotinic pesticides are ingested into the human body, they bind to acetylcholine receptors as wrong neurotransmitters, interfere with the normal function of acetylcholine in the nervous system, keep nerve transmission open, cause abnormal excitement, and may cause headaches, palpitations, abnormal heart rate and other symptoms
.
The national food safety standard Maximum residue limits of pesticides in food (GB 2763-2021) stipulate that the maximum residue limits of clothianidin in cowpeas and eggplants are 0.
01mg/kg and 0.
05mg/kg
, respectively.
The reason for excessive clothianidin in cowpea and eggplant may be increased for rapid pest control, or failure to comply with the picking interval regulations, resulting in the drug residue in the product not degraded below the
standard limit when it is marketed.

 

2.
Flycide: Flycide, also known as cipromazine, is a new type of high-efficiency, low-toxicity, nitrogen-containing heterocyclic insecticide, which is currently an ecological pesticide with good control effect on diptera insects and pests
.
A small amount of pesticide residues will not cause acute poisoning of the human body, but long-term consumption of food with excessive pesticide residues has a certain impact
on human health.
The National Food Safety Standard Maximum Residue Limit of Pesticides in Food (GB 2763-2021) stipulates that the maximum residue limit of flycidein in cowpea is 0.
5mg/kg
.
The reason for the excessive level of flycidein in cowpea may be that vegetable farmers do not understand the safe interval for the use of pesticides, so they use pesticides in violation of regulations
.

 

3.
Lead (in terms of Pb): Lead is a chronic and cumulative poison, after entering the human body, a small part will be excreted with the body's metabolism, and most of it will be deposited in the body, endangering human health
.
The National Food Safety Standard Limit of Contaminants in Food (GB 2762-2017) stipulates that the maximum limit value of lead in ginger is 0.
1mg/kg
.
The lead content in vegetables exceeds the standard, which may lead pollution through soil, air, water and other ways during growth and production, such as after the discharge of lead-containing wastewater and waste residue pollutes water bodies and soil, and then pollutes food; The use of lead-containing pesticides can also cause lead contamination
of crops.

 

4.
Residual amount of aluminum (dry sample, in Al): potassium aluminum sulfate (also known as potassium alum), ammonium aluminum sulfate (also known as ammonium alum) are commonly used leavening agents and stabilizers in food processing, and aluminum residues
are produced after use.
Aluminum is not an essential trace element for the human body, does not participate in normal physiological metabolism, has accumulative, excessive intake will affect the body's absorption of iron, calcium and other components, resulting in osteoporosis, anemia, and even affect the development
of nerve cells.
The "National Food Safety Standard for the Use of Food Additives" (GB 2760-2014) stipulates that potassium aluminum sulfate and ammonium aluminum sulfate can be applied to soybean products as leavening agents and stabilizers, and their addition amount is "appropriate addition according to production needs", and the maximum limit value of aluminum residue in the final product (dry sample) is 100mg/kg
.
The reason for the excessive amount of aluminum residue may be that in order to improve the taste of the product, individual enterprises use aluminum-containing additives beyond the limit and scope in the production and processing process, or the aluminum content in the compound additives they use is too high
.
