Fonterra, the world's largest dairy exporter, said on Monday it has reassured its global customers that New Zealand dairy products are safe following the discovery of traces of a potentially toxic substance in milk samples.
新西蘭的牛奶樣品日前被爆檢出一種疑似有毒物質(zhì)。消息曝光后,全球最大的乳品出口商恒天然周一向全球客戶保證:其乳制品是安全的。

The New Zealand firm said its testing had found "minute traces" in some of its products of dicyandiamide (DCD), a chemical used in fertilisers to prevent them from soaking into rivers, which can be toxic in large amounts.
恒天然證實(shí)在產(chǎn)品測試中發(fā)現(xiàn)了“微量” 雙氰胺。雙氰胺是一種防止肥料滲入河流的化學(xué)物質(zhì),大量使用有毒。

Fonterra, said in a statement it had assured its customers that the detected DCD levels were no threat to human health.
恒天然公司在一份聲明中向客戶保證,檢測到的雙氰胺水平不會威脅到人類健康。

"Customers are satisfied with our answers and the anxiety is dying down," Chief Executive Theo Spierings said later on Radio New Zealand.He said the DCD levels found in tests last year were "100 times less than European standards".
恒天然公司的首席執(zhí)行官西奧-史畢根斯在新西蘭之聲中表示,“客戶對我??們的回答表示滿意,對此的焦慮也逐步減少?!彼瑫r表示,在去年的檢測中發(fā)現(xiàn)的雙氰胺水平“比歐洲標(biāo)準(zhǔn)少100倍”。

The fertiliser companies making the product have suspended its sale. Fonterra has been working with the government and the industry since last November to resolve the issue, Spierings said.
生產(chǎn)雙氰胺的化肥公司已被暫停銷售。史畢根斯表示從去年11月開始,公司一直與政府和業(yè)界合作來解決問題。

Fonterra is New Zealand's largest company with revenues of around NZ$20 billion ($16.8 billion), and is looking to expand in Asia to tap into the region's growing demand for dairy goods.
