食物安全電子訊息 E News (18 August 2022)

致食物安全電子信息訂閱者： Dear E-news recipients, 以下資訊已上載到食物安全中心（中心）網站： News on the Centre for Food Safety (CFS) website :   (1)   供生吃的預先去殼生蠔－該注意什麼？   蠔是濾食性動物，由於經常過濾海水，體內累積水中的物質，包括弧菌、諾如病毒及甲型肝炎病毒等病原體。人類進食生或未煮熟的蠔，可能會感染這些病原體。   烹煮可把病原體消滅，但必須保持高溫才有效。烹煮至內部溫度達攝氏90度並維持90秒，便足以消滅甲型肝炎病毒及諾如病毒等常見食源性病毒，確保安全。切記生蠔存有微生物風險，即使養殖場採取嚴格的控制及監察措施，也無法把風險完全消除。然而，如果選擇生吃蠔隻，應向可靠的持牌店鋪購買擬供生吃的蠔。   詳情請參閱以下網頁: https://www.cfs.gov.hk/tc_chi/multimedia/multimedia_pub/multimedia_pub_fsf_180_01.html     (2)   食用植物中的天然毒素   天然毒素存在於多種植物內，當中有些是人們常吃的食物。吃下這些有毒物質可能會損害健康。由植物毒素引致的食物中毒時有所聞。市民在進食含天然毒素的食用植物前應採取措施減低風險，同時切勿自行採摘及食用野生植物。兒童、長者及身體欠佳者等須加倍留意。此外，市民亦應遵從傳統已知的安全處理食物方法，並保持均衡的飲食。   詳情請參閱以下網頁: https://www.cfs.gov.hk/tc_chi/multimedia/multimedia_pub/multimedia_pub_fsf_13_02.html     (3)   食物安全通訊 (公眾篇)及食物安全廣播站(食物業)   「食物安全通訊 (公眾篇)」及「食物安全廣播站 (食物業)」已經出版。歡迎到以下網頁閱覽上述季刊：https://www.cfs.gov.hk/tc_chi/multimedia/multimedia_pub/multimedia_pub_fsb.html https://www.cfs.gov.hk/tc_chi/multimedia/multimedia_pub/multimedia_pub_fse.html     (4) 食物安全節目頻道「食電視」   新一集「食電視」《煎炸THINGS》已經於食物安全中心YouTube頻道首播，並在中 心的Facebook和Instagram專頁同步上映     詳情請參閱以下網頁： YouTube: https://youtu.be/XO3CeioC6tg Facebook: https://fb.watch/eVKpCiPTuQ/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tv/ChJ8OcMvUuk/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=     (5) 食安中心提醒巿民於夏季多加注意食物安全風險   中心最近公布二○二二夏季食物監測結果，在1,850個完成檢測的食物樣本中，除較早前已公布的兩個樣本外，其餘樣本全部通過檢測。   有關之新聞公報請瀏覽以下網頁： https://www.cfs.gov.hk/tc_chi/press/20220810_9684.html     食物安全中心 18.8.2022     ==============================================================     (1)    Pre-shucked Oysters for Raw Consumption – What Should One be Aware of?   Oysters are filter feeders. They constantly draw in water and accumulate materials from water, including pathogens such as Vibrio bacteria, norovirus and hepatitis A virus.   Pathogens can be readily destroyed by cooking, but high heat must be held to be effective. Cooking to an internal temperature of 90°C for 90 seconds will provide a safety margin to inactivate common foodborne viruses like hepatitis A and norovirus. Remember that raw oysters have an inherent microbiological risk that cannot be completely eliminated, even with stringent control and monitoring measures at farm level. However, if choosing to savour the shellfish raw, buy oysters intended for raw consumption only from reliable licensed premises.   Please click into the webpage for details: https://www.cfs.gov.hk/english/multimedia/multimedia_pub/multimedia_pub_fsf_180_01.html     (2) Natural Toxins in Food Plants   Natural toxins are present in a wide variety of plants, some of which are commonly consumed as food. These toxic substances when ingested can be potentially harmful to human health. From time to time, food poisoning cases due to plant toxins have been reported. The public is advised to take measures for reducing risk prior to ingestion of food plants containing natural toxins, and not to pick and consume wild plants. Particular attention should be given to children, the elderly and individuals with poor health conditions. The public should follow the conventional ways of food processing that are known to be safe, and maintain a balanced diet.   Please click into the webpage for details: https://www.cfs.gov.hk/english/multimedia/multimedia_pub/multimedia_pub_fsf_13_02.html     (3) Food Safety Bulletin (for Customers) and Food Safety Express (for Food Trade)   The Food Safety Bulletin (for Consumers) and Food Safety Express (for Food Trade) had been published.
