Cultured quail cells under FSANZ evaluation as potential novel food
Australia
Dec 11, 2023
The Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) is undertaking the first round of public consultation on the application to amend the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code to authorize the use of cultured quail cells as novel food.
This is the first cell-cultured food application to be assessed in Australia and New Zealand. The call for submissions seeks views on FSANZ’s risk assessment which focused on the first three stages of cell-based food production: cell line, method of production and cell harvest. FSANZ's assessment found the cultured quail cell line is genetically stable and microbiological risks with cell line sourcing and harvest are very low.
