RE: FDA, Draft Guidance Levels for Radionuclides in Domesticand Imported Foods



John, 



I noticed your comment on the FDA Draft Compliance Guide that the Table

contained only DILs for the so-called principal radionuclides. It is likely

that in an emergency situation, involving other radionuclides, FDA would

respond in a similar   manner.  If you want to explore this with the Agency,

contact the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, e.g.

Dr. Patricia Hansen at 301-436-2369 or Dr. William Cunningham at

301-975-6271.

Imported Foods







Just, FYI



FDA has issued this Draft Compliance Policy Guide for comment.

http://www.fda.gov/OHRMS/DOCKETS/98fr/03d-0558-gdl0001.pdf



Strontium-90

Iodine-131

Cesium-134 + Cesium-137

Plutonium-238 + Plutonium-239 + Americium-241

Ruthenium-103 + Ruthenium-106



These are the only radionuclides listed.
