USA
Sep 02, 2020
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued guidance finalizing the 2016 draft guidance for inorganic arsenic in infant rice cereals and identifying the agencyâs intended sampling and enforcement approach. The guidance identifies an action level of 100 micrograms per kilogram (µg/kg) or 100 parts per billion (ppb) which protects public health by reducing infantsâ dietary exposure to inorganic arsenic and is achievable by industry. The FDA is taking this action because exposure to inorganic arsenic is associated with neurodevelopmental effects.
