Results from national testing programs on the occurrence of chemical contaminants in food and feed - Latvia

In the framework of Articles 23 and 33 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 EFSA has received from the European Commission a mandate (M-2010-0374) to collect all available data on the occurrence of chemical contaminants in food and feed. These data are used in EFSA’s scientific opinions and reports on contaminants in food and feed. The presence of unauthorised substances or chemical contaminants in food may pose a risk factor for public health and can cause a negative impact on the quality of food. Commission Recommendations and Regulations on occurrence monitoring are in place for several contaminants of interest, some of which can be found here below: Commission Regulation (EU) 625/2017, on the application of food and feed law Commission Regulation (EC) 1881/2006, on maximum levels for certain contaminants in foodstuffs Commission Regulation (EC) 2017/2158 establishing mitigation measures and benchmark levels for the reduction of the presence of acrylamide in food These datasets contain the results of sampling that was designed according to national testing programs for a variety of contaminants in food and feed, as reported under the Chemical Monitoring Data Collection 2022, 2021, and 2020, split by sampling year (data element ‘sampY’). More details are available in the ‘Call for continuous collection of chemical contaminants occurrence data in food and feed | EFSA (europa.eu)’. REPORTING AUTHORITIES CONTRIBUTING TO EACH DATA COLLECTION: OCC-CHEMMON2020 – Institute of Food Safety, Animal Health and Environment OCC-CHEMMON2021 – Institute of Food Safety, Animal Health and Environment OCC-CHEMMON2022 – Institute of Food Safety, Animal Health and Environment依据（EC）第178/2002号条例第23条与第33条的规定框架，欧洲食品安全局（EFSA，European Food Safety Authority）从欧盟委员会处获得编号为M-2010-0374的任务授权，要求其收集所有可获取的食品与饲料中化学污染物残留的相关数据。上述数据将用于欧洲食品安全局关于食品和饲料中污染物的科学意见与专项报告。食品中若存在未授权物质或化学污染物，不仅可能构成公众健康风险因子，还会对食品品质造成负面影响。欧盟委员会已针对多类关注污染物制定了残留监测相关的建议与条例，部分示例如下： 1. （EU）第625/2017号委员会条例，关于食品和饲料法律的实施 2. （EC）第1881/2006号委员会条例，关于食品中特定污染物的最大残留限量 3. （EC）2017/2158号委员会条例，旨在制定降低食品中丙烯酰胺残留的缓解措施与基准水平 本数据集包含依据食品和饲料中多类污染物的国家检测方案设计的抽样检测结果，相关数据上报自2022、2021及2020年化学监测数据收集计划（Chemical Monitoring Data Collection），并按抽样年份（数据元素‘sampY’）进行拆分。更多详细信息可参阅《关于持续收集食品和饲料中化学污染物残留数据的征集函 | 欧洲食品安全局（europa.eu）》。 参与各批次数据收集的报告机构如下： - OCC-CHEMMON2020：食品安全、动物健康与环境研究所 - OCC-CHEMMON2021：食品安全、动物健康与环境研究所 - OCC-CHEMMON2022：食品安全、动物健康与环境研究所
