Meiji Dairy recalled milk powder for radioactive contamination

Xinhua News Agency, Tokyo, December 6 (Reporter He Degong) Japan’s Meiji Dairy Company announced on the 6th that the “Meiji STEP” milk powder produced by the company detected trace amounts of radioactive cesium. The company decided to recall about 400,000 cans of milk powder for free replacement.

According to Kyodo News reported on the 6th, the detection of radioactive cesium is 850 grams per canned "Meiji STEP" milk powder, the highest radioactive activity of 30.8 becquerel per kilogram of milk powder. This is Japan's first detection of radioactive cesium in powdered milk since the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power plant.

The milk powder in question was all manufactured by Meiji Dairy at its factory in Kasukabe, Saitama Prefecture. The shelf life of the tanks was as of October 3, 4, 5, 6, 21, 22, 23, and 24, respectively. day. Milk powder produced by Meiji Dairy holds 40% of the Japanese domestic market.

Japan currently stipulates that the safety limit for radiation in milk powder is 200 becquerels per kilogram. The recalled milk powder actually meets this standard. In this regard, Meiji Dairy explains that the reason for the free exchange is that infants are more susceptible to radioactive substances than adults, and replacements can also eliminate consumers' anxiety.

It is reported that the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare has decided to formulate standards for radiation products that specifically target baby food.

The reason for the incorporation of radioactive cesium into milk powder is not yet clear, but Meiji Dairy believes this is related to the nuclear accident at Tokyo Electric Power Co., Ltd.'s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
