Latest test results of dairy product samples (with tables)

The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) today (October 3) released the latest batch of results of melamine tests on dairy products.

Results available today showed that all the 92 samples tested were satisfactory. These included Mainland-produced biscuits, chocolates, oatmeal, noodles, vermicelli, instant drink mixes and raw milk; and milk and milk beverages, ice-cream and cream produced in other places.

"The CFS has been testing each consignment of Mainland fresh milk since September 25. So far, 34 consignments of fresh milk were tested and all were satisfactory," a spokesman for the CFS said.

"We will continue to collect samples of dairy products and products with dairy ingredients for testing. Test results for some cakes, egg tarts, baby food, chocolates, instant drink mixes, milk, ice-cream, cream and nutrition supplements for hospital use will be available tomorrow."

Information on the test results can be found on the CFS's website, www.cfs.gov.hk. For enquiries, members of the public can also call the CFS's enquiry number 2381 6096 which operates from 9am to 9pm daily.
