2.0 RISK ASSESSMENT SECTION
2.1 Introduction
The Risk Assessment Section was established in 2011, after the Food Safety and Quality Division was upgraded into a Programme. This section is responsible for carrying out activities related to food safety risk assessment. Besides, this section is also responsible for carrying out Total Diet Study activities, Food Consumption Database and act as secretariat for ASEAN Risk Assessment Centre for Food Safety (ARAC).
2.2 Activities
2.2.1 Risk Assessment
Risk assessment is a scientific evaluation of known or potential adverse health effects resulting from human exposure to food hazards. It forms the scientific basis of food safety control. Typically, risk assessment consists of four components: (i) hazard identification, (ii) hazard characterization, (iii) exposure assessment and (iv) risk characterization. By carrying out risk assessment, food hazard including chemical, microbiological and physical can be evaluated and potential risk to population can be assessed, facilitating formulation of appropriate risk management actions and risk communication messages to protect consumer health.
In 2016, the Risk Assessment Section has prepared report of risk profile, exposure assessment, food safety technical inputs and risk assessment based on hazards and parameters identified. In addition, the Risk Assessment Section also provided Agency Review on Genetically Modified Organisms/Foods (GMO) to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
2.2.2 Total Diet Study
Total Diet Study is carried out to estimate the dietary exposure intake of the Malaysian population to chemicals that may be found in the food supply and determine whether there are any public health and safety concerns. Total Diet Study approach is the most accurate dietary exposure estimation as the food sample is prepared as consumed before analysed in the laboratory.
58 BKKM ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
2.2.2.1 Outcome of Total Diet Study 2014/2015
In 2016, Risk Assessment Section has prepared a report of Total Diet Study 2014/2015. A total of 171 food items from 12 food groups were sampled randomly throughout Malaysia and were analysed for heavy metal and preservative parameter.
a) Heavy Metal Parameter
The percentage contribution of dietary exposure to heavy metal i.e. inorganic arsenic and cadmium for an average consumer by food groups are shown in Figure 24.
Figure 24: Percentage contribution of dietary exposure to inorganic arsenic (left) and cadmium (right) for an average consumer by food groups
For inorganic arsenic, the main dietary source of inorganic arsenic was “fish and fish products”, “cereal and cereal products” and “drinks” which contributed to 84%, 8% and 4% of the total exposure respectively. The finding shows that inorganic arsenic exposure through food intake is unlikely to pose a significant risk to public health.
As for cadmium, the main dietary source of cadmium was “drinks”, “cereal and cereal products” and “fruits and fruits products” which contributed to 43%, 18% and 12% of the total exposure respectively. The dietary exposure of cadmium for average consumers of the general population was unlikely to experience major health concern. Dietary exposures of methylmercury for average consumers of the general population also shows that there is no health concern through the dietary intake but high risk consumers especially pregnant women are recommended to eat balance diet and avoid excessive exposure to methylmercury.
Figure 25: Percentage contribution of dietary exposure to benzoic acid (left) and sorbic acid (right) for an average consumer by food groups
59BKKM ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
b) Preservative Parameter
The percentage contribution of dietary exposure to preservative i.e. benzoic acid and sorbic acid for an average consumer by food groups are shown in Figure 25.
2.2.2.2 Preparation of Total Diet Study 2017
In year 2016, Risk Assessment Section also conducted the preparation for the implementation of the Total Diet Study 2017. The previous Standard Operation Procedure for Total Diet Study has been reviewed and updated. The new Standard Operation Procedure for Total Diet Study 2017 had been briefed to the person-in-charge of Total Diet Study from indicates State Health Departments, Food Safety and Quality Laboratories and Public Health Laboratory.
Figure 25: Percentage contribution of dietary exposure to benzoic acid (left) and sorbic acid (right) for an average consumer by food groups
The main dietary source of benzoic acid through food intake was “cereal and cereal products”, “drinks” and “seasoning” which contributed to 37%, 36% and 16% of the total exposure, respectively. Generally, the exposure is low and the adult population was unlikely to experience undesirable health effect of benzoic acid through food consumption.
The exposure for sorbic acid also is low and unlikely pose any health concern to the adult population through dietary intake. The main dietary source of sorbic acid was “drinks”, “meat and meat product” and “cereal and cereal product” which contributed to 33%, 22% and 20% of the total exposure, respectively.
60 BKKM ANNUAL REPORT - 2016
2.2.3 ASEAN Food Consumption Database
ASEAN Food Consumption Database is also one of the activities carried out under the Risk Assessment Section. ASEAN Food Consumption Database is a source of information on food consumption across ASEAN member states.
ASEAN Food Consumption Database was developed to harmonize ASEAN food
consumption data at level 1 (food group) and at level 2 (food subgroup) for conducting reliable risk assessment purposes. In 2013, an electronic Working Group for ASEAN Food Consumption Data for Exposure Assessment was set up to assist in the development of ASEAN Food Consumption Database with Malaysia as the lead country. The database consist of Food Consumption Data from Malaysia and Phillipine. However due to lack of commitment by ASEAN member states the harmonization project was unable to proceed.
In year 2016, FAO/WHO have introduced the use of a global categorization system coding tool developed by European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) namely FoodEx2 Codification Tool as a step to harmonize Individual Food Consumption Data and Exposure Assessment in ASEAN. Thus the Workshop on the FoodEx2 Codification Tool was held in Bangkok on 17-18 October 2016 in order to train participants to perform preliminary categorizing based on the classification of foods using the FoodEx2.
