针对麦趣尔牛奶检出丙二醇问题，新疆维吾尔自治区市场监督管理局第一时间联合昌吉回族自治州市场监督管理局、昌吉市市场监督管理局组成调查组，入驻企业开展执法检查，督促企业立即停止纯牛奶生产，及时下架、封存、召回不合格产品。

Chinese milk producer Maiquer is under investigation after unauthorised additives were found in some of its dairy products. The local market regulator has already sent a special investigation team to the company, which is based in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uyghur autonomous region, to conduct inspections, and have urged the enterprise to immediately stop milk production, and promptly remove, seal, and recall substandard products.

经初步调查分析，麦趣尔纯牛奶中检出丙二醇为企业在生产过程中超范围使用食品添加剂香精所致。目前，市场监管部门已对麦趣尔公司超范围使用食品添加剂违法行为立案调查。案件查明后，市场监管部门将依法予以严肃处理并及时向社会公布处置情况。

Two batches of Maiquer milk were found to have excessive amounts of propylene glycol. Preliminary investigation and analysis show that the detection of propylene glycol in Maiquer pure milk was caused by the excessive use of food additives and flavors in the production process.

根据《食品安全国家标准食品添加剂使用标准》（GB 2760-2014）、《食品安全国家标准食品用香精》（GB 30616-2020）的规定，丙二醇是批准使用的食品添加剂，也是允许使用的食品用合成香料和食品用香精中允许使用的溶剂。食品添加剂丙二醇在生湿面制品、糕点中的最大使用量分别为1.5克/公斤、3.0克/公斤。丙二醇不得在纯牛奶中使用。

According to Chinese food law, propylene glycol is an approved food additive and a permitted solvent in synthetic food flavors and food flavors, but the country has set a maximum usage limit, while the additive cannot be used at all in pure milk.

据了解，市场监管总局组织对14家市场占有率高的企业生产的纯牛奶和麦趣尔公司生产的纯牛奶共23批次样品进行了抽检，结果显示，只有麦趣尔公司生产的6批次纯牛奶检出丙二醇，检出值在0.264克/公斤—0.363克/公斤。市场监管总局要求新疆市场监管局尽快查清麦趣尔公司违法事实，依法严厉查处，及时公布查处情况。

In light of the Maiquer case, the State Administration of Market Supervision has also organized a sampling inspection among 23 batches of samples of pure milk produced by 14 companies with high market shares, propylene glycol was detected in six batches from Maiquer, with between 0.264 grams per kilogram and 0.363 grams detected per kilogram. The State Administration for Market Regulation asked the Xinjiang market regular to identify the extent Maiquer's violations as soon as possible, investigate and punish the firm strictly according to the law, and publish the investigation and punishment results in a timely manner.

▌麦趣尔已停止纯牛奶生产

4日，上市公司麦趣尔发布公告，公司近日因纯牛奶检出丙二醇问题受到市场监督管理部门立案调查。就上述事项公司具体采取措施如下：①已停止纯牛奶生产，下架、封存、召回不合格产品；②承诺对已购买不合格纯牛奶的消费者，无条件退货、退款；③将认真开展自查自纠，排查不合格产品原因并进行整改，及时向市场监督管理部门报告排查情况；④将积极配合市场监督管理部门的调查处理，不拒绝、逃避，主动承担企业责任。

Maiquer has suspended production of milk products, and has removed, sealed, and recalled all substandard products, the company said on Monday. It said it will unconditionally refund consumers that bought these products. “Maiquer will actively cooperate with the regulators on the investigation, and will not reject or avoid responsibility,” the company said, noting that it will conduct an earnest self-inspection to identify problems which led to substandard products being sold and rectify these issues.
