Infant Formula Recall Details
Feb 5 (Reuters) – Danone is recalling certain production batches of Aptamil and Milumil infant formula in Austria and Germany due to contamination with a toxin, the Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety said on Thursday.
Contamination Concerns
The Cereulide toxin, which can cause nausea and vomiting, has been detected in ingredients from a supplier in China for many infant formula makers, including Nestle, Danone and Lactalis. The findings have triggered recalls in dozens of countries and raised concerns among parents.
Company Response
The French consumer goods group had in January recalled at least three batches of its Aptamil baby formula in Germany, looking to contain a scare over the toxin contamination that started with Nestle products.
Previous Recalls
Bloomberg News had reported the latest recall earlier on Thursday.
In a statement to Bloomberg, Danone said it initiated “a precautionary recall process of specific batches of products on January 23rd and we have implemented additional ingredient controls”.
Danone did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
