SCIENTIFIC OPINION Uranium in foodstuffs, in particular mineral water 1 Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain
2009
SUMMARY The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) was asked to conduct a risk assessment on uranium at the European level because of the existence of differing regulations and also due to existing gaps in the knowledge base concerning the chronic toxicity of uranium. This opinion focuses on uranium‟s chemical toxicity, while the radiological risk will be addressed by the Group of Experts established under Article 31 of the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM) Treaty under the Directorate-General for Energy and Transport 3 .
