Import Alert # 17-04
Published Date: 12/10/2020
Type: DWPE

Import Alert Name:

"Detention Without Physical Examination Bulk Shipments of High-Risk Bovine Tissue from BSE-Countries--Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy"

Reason for Alert:

BSE has been identified in more than 100,000 cattle in the United Kingdom and, to a much lesser extent, in several other countries. This neurological disease is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) and is similar to other TSEs such as scrapie in sheep and Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) in humans. The spongiform encephalopathies are uniformly fatal and no rapid diagnostic test for infection in living animals or humans is presently available. Current scientific information indicates that the causative agent is extremely resistant to activation by normal disinfection or sterilization procedures. A range of research projects into the exact nature of both the BSE agent and other TSE agents, host range, patterns of pathogenicity, and development of rapid ante mortem diagnostic tests is ongoing.

Since 1991, USDA has prohibited the importation into the U.S. of certain tissues and organs from ruminants from countries where BSE exists. (refer to 9 CFR 94.18). On January 6, 1998, USDA issued an interim rule listing other countries because of import requirements less restrictive than those that would be acceptable for importation into the U.S. and/or because of inadequate surveillance, which would
present a significant risk. USDA's regulations are intended to protect livestock in the United States from contracting TSEs and address known or strongly suspected modes of transmission. The USDA regulations permit, under certain conditions, the importation of some cosmetic ingredients (i.e., collagen, collagen products, amniotic liquids or
extracts, placental liquids or extracts, serum albumin, and serocolostrum) derived from ruminants from BSE-countries (see 9 CFR 95.4).

The USDA regulations do not apply to imports of:

o cosmetic products that are packaged and ready for sale;

o bovine-derived materials intended for human consumption as either finished dietary supplement products or for use as ingredients in dietary supplements; or

o human food (except meat, i.e., skeletal muscle).

In March 1996, the Spongiform Encephalopathy Advisory Committee of the UK reported that 10 cases of CJD in the UK are likely linked to exposure BSE before the UK ban in 1989.

The FDA has recommended that manufacturers who use bovine by-products voluntarily investigate the geographic source(s) of any bovine or bovine material used in their products (generally neural or glandular tissue or tissue extracts). The Agency also suggested that each manufacturer develop a plan "to assure, with a high degree of certainty," that such materials are not from BSE-countries, as identified by USDA's APHIS, or from scrapie-infected sheep flocks, either foreign or domestic.

FDA considers further protective steps to be reasonable and, in an August 17, 1994, letter (Attachment B), recommended that manufacturers and importers of dietary supplements, cosmetic products, and raw materials for these finished product develop plans for ensuring, with a high degree of certainty, that specific bovine-derived materials from
BSE-countries are not being used.

Attachment A is an expanded list of those tissues presenting the highest known risk of infectivity, e.g., high-risk tissue, which are the subject of this import alert. Additional tissues may be added to this list as studies warrant and this import alert will be revised accordingly.

FDA will be gathering information on the development of BSE plans for all bovine - derived tissues and documenting the use of high-risk tissue from BSE-countries during domestic inspections under both the cosmetics and dietary supplements compliance programs. Due to the difficulty in verifying the presence of high-risk tissues in finished dietary supplements or cosmetic products, this import alert is limited to bulk lots of these tissues from BSE-affected or at risk countries listed above. However, if during wharf examinations or label reviews high-risk bovine tissues are noted in the ingredients statement, districts should follow the procedure in the Guidance section of this alert to notify CFSAN.

The United States Department of Agriculture issued an interim rule on January 6, 1998. The interim rule restricts the importation of ruminants, meat and meat products from ruminants, and certain ruminant products and byproducts not only from countries and other regions in which BSE is known to exist, but also from countries and other regions which, because of import requirements less restrictive than those that would be acceptable for import into the United States and/or because of inadequate surveillance, present a significant risk.

Guidance:

Districts may detain the shipment without physical examination, if the high-risk bovine tissue or ingredient, as listed in Attachment A, originated from one of the following Countries: Albania, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Republic of, Italy, Japan, Leichtenstein, Luxembourg, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Oman, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, the Slovak Republic (Slovakia), Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. If an entry is detained and the importer or manufacturer has not provided within sixty (60) days documentation that establishes that the bovine derived tissue used in the product came from BSE-free cattle or from a non BSE affected or at risk country, districts should attempt to determine the status of the entry and, where possible, reach a final determination as to the entry. Sixty (60) days should be ample time for an importer or manufacturer to provide such documentation.

Districts may provide a copy of the Agency's August 17, 1994, letter (Attachment B) to importer's for their use in developing plans to assure that future shipments of bovine tissues are obtained from non-BSE countries.

Districts should be alert to entries of finished products from BSE affected countries which contain high-risk bovine tissues listed in the ingredients. When conducting field examinations and/or label reviews of finished products, such as dietary supplements or cosmetics that contain high-risk bovine tissues, contact CFSAN/Import Branch with product identity, high-risk bovine tissue used as ingredient, manufacturer/shipper, country of origin, and importer of record and for further guidance.

For any issues and/or questions regarding science, science policy, sample collection, analyses, preparation, analytical methodology or confirmation tests, districts should contact the Office of Regulatory Science.

To Manufacturers and Importers of Dietary Supplements:
To Manufacturers and Importers of Cosmetics:


The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is recommending that firms that
manufacture or import dietary supplements and cosmetics containing specific
bovine tissues (see Appendix A) ensure that such tissues do not come from
cattle born, raised, or slaughtered in countries where bovine spongiform
encephalopathy (BSE) exists (BSE-countries). Extracts of these tissues and
ingredients derived from these tissues are also of concern. The recommended
actions are precautionary measures to reduce potential risk of human exposure
to, or transmission of, the agent which causes BSE in cattle.

At this time, FDA is not extending the recommendation in this
letter to dairy products or gelatin, because available evidence
does not suggest transmission via these foods. Furthermore, meat
(i.e., skeletal muscle) is not covered by this letter. For
guidance on importation of meat and other products regulated by
the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), refer to Title 9 of the
Code of Federal Regulations.

The Agency is providing the following information to explain why
it believes that BSE may potentially be a concern with certain
dietary supplements and cosmetic products. BSE has been identified in more
than 100,000 cattle in the United Kingdom and, to a much lesser extent, in
several other countries. This neurological disease is a transmissible
spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) and is similar to other TSEs such as scrapie
in sheep and Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) in humans. The spongiform
encephalopathies are uniformly fatal and no rapid diagnostic test for
infection in living animals or humans is presently available. Current
scientific information indicates that the causative agent is extremely
resistant to inactivation by normal disinfection or sterilization procedures.
A range of research projects into the exact nature of both the BSE agent and
other TSE agents, host range, patterns of pathogenicity, and development of
rapid ante mortem diagnostic tests is ongoing.

Since 1991, USDA has prohibited the importation into the U.S. of
certain tissues and organs from ruminants from countries where BSE exists
(BSE-countries; see 9 CFR 94.18). USDA's regulations are intended to protect
livestock in the United States from
contracting TSEs and address known or strongly suspected modes of
transmission. For the up-to-date listing of BSE-countries please
contact USDA, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS)
at (301) 436-7830.

The USDA regulations permit, under certain conditions, the
importation of some cosmetic ingredients (i.e., collagen, collagen products,
amniotic liquids or extracts, placental liquids or extracts, serum albumin,
and serocolostrum) derived from ruminants from BSE-countries; see 9 CFR 95.4.

The USDA regulations do not apply to imports of:

cosmetic products that are packaged and ready for sale;

bovine-derived materials intended for human consumption
as either finished dietary supplement products or for use as
ingredients in dietary supplements; or

human food (except meat, i.e., skeletal muscle).

While documented transmission of the causative agents of BSE or
scrapie to humans has not been reported to date, the FDA wrote to
manufacturers of dietary supplements in November 1992, alerting
them to the developing concern about TSEs in animals and CJD in
man. That letter recommended that manufacturers voluntarily
investigate the geographic source(s) of any bovine or ovine
material used in their products (generally neural or glandular
tissue or tissue extracts). The Agency also suggested that each
manufacturer develop a plan "to assure, with a high degree of
certainty," that such materials are not from BSE-countries, as
identified by USDA's APHIS, or from scrapie-infected sheep flocks, either
foreign or domestic.

FDA now considers further protective steps to be reasonable and is restating
and expanding its recommendation to manufacturers and importers of dietary
supplements and their ingredients, to develop plans for ensuring, with a high
degree of certainty, that specific bovine-derived materials (see Appendix A)
from BSE-countries are not being used. The Agency is also recommending that
manufacturers and importers of cosmetic products and their ingredients develop
the same type of plans. FDA is not, at this time, recommending restrictions on
the use of ovine-derived materials in the manufacture of dietary supplement
and cosmetic products and ingredients, as the epidemiological evidence now
appears convincing that scrapie is not related to TSEs in humans.

FDA believes it is prudent to expand its recommendation to
cosmetics and cosmetic ingredients because extracts of listed
tissues, e.g. sphingolipids isolated from brain tissue and
extracts of bovine placenta, are used in cosmetics. Additionally,
FDA is unaware of data demonstrating that processing techniques
used in the manufacture of cosmetics will inactivate TSE agents.
Further, little is known about the potential human risk of
transmission from topical application of cosmetics containing TSE
agents to intact, broken or abraded skin.

To assist manufacturers and importers whose products are within
the scope of this recommendation in developing their plans, the
following guidance is provided:

. To ensure that bovine-derived materials (listed in appendix A)
used in the product(s) are from non BSE-countries, identify all
countries where the animals used were born, raised or slaughtered.
The supplier of the bovine-derived materials should provide the
necessary records.

b. Maintain traceable records for each lot of bovine-derived material
and records of products containing the materials.

. Maintain records for those products manufactured at foreign sites
or by foreign manufacturers which contain bovine-derived
materials.

The Agency recommends that manufacturers and importers of dietary
supplements and cosmetic products and ingredients used in the
manufacture of these products develop their plans within the next
two months and notify the Agency, in writing, that their plans
have been developed. The designated contact is Dr. Elisa Elliot,
Science Policy Analyst, Executive Operations Staff, HFS-22, Center for Food
Safety and Applied Nutrition, FDA, 200 C Street, S.W., Washington, DC, 20204
or FAX (202) 205-5025. FDA recommends that the plans be implemented as soon
after development as possible, and be available for review by the Agency
during inspections.

The Agency is continuing to examine all available information
about TSEs and will provide additional guidance as necessary. If
you need more information please contact Dr. Elliot by telephone
at (202) 205-5140.

We appreciate your attention to and cooperation in this matter.

Sincerely,

TO MANUFACTURERS AND IMPORTERS OF DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS:
TO MANUFACTURERS AND IMPORTERS OF COSMETICS:


As the media have widely reported, the British government announced on March 20, 1996, that new information had been gathered about bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle that suggests a possible relationship between BSE and ten cases of a newly identified form of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), a similar fatal transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) in humans. To serve our mutual interest in protecting public health, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) believes it is prudent to reiterate concerns we have previously expressed on this issue.

BSE is a transmissible neurologic disorder of cattle and is prevalent in
certain parts of the world. This neurological disease is one of a number of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) known and is similar to other TSEs such as scrapie in sheep and CJD in humans. It is believed that the spread of BSE in cattle in some countries, particularly Great Britain, was caused by the feeding of infected cattle and sheep tissues to cattle. While transmission of the causative agent of BSE to humans has not been definitively documented to date, inter-species transfer has been demonstrated (e.g., mice can be infected by exposure to infected bovine tissues). Recent developments
in Great Britain raise serious questions regarding potential hazards of the consumption of animal tissues containing the causative agent of BSE.

Although there is still no definitive evidence that the consumption of bovine tissues that contain the transmissible agent for BSE cause CJD in humans, FDA is concerned that appropriate measures to eliminate the use of bovine tissues from BSE-countries be instituted industry-wide.

We strongly recommend that firms manufacturing or importing dietary
supplements which contain specific bovine tissues (see appendix A), including extracts or substances derived from such tissues, take whatever steps are necessary to assure themselves and the public that such ingredients do not come from cattle born, raised, or slaughtered in countries where BSE exists.

FDA believes that immediate and concrete steps should be taken by
manufacturers to reduce the potential risk of human exposure to the infectious agent which causes BSE in cattle.

The list of countries where BSE is known to exist is maintained by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and codified in Title 9, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 94.18. The following is the current list:

USDA LIST OF COUNTRIES WHERE BSE EXISTS
(Current as of May 1996)

Great Britain (including Northern Ireland and the Falklands)
Switzerland
France
Republic of Ireland
Oman
Portugal

A range of research projects into the exact nature of both the BSE agent and other TSE agents is ongoing. Available scientific information indicates that these agents are extremely resistant to inactivation by normal disinfection or sterilization procedures. A number of dietary supplement products use bovine-derived tissues or extracts of such tissues as ingredients. These ingredients include, for example, specific tissues and organs or their extracts (e.g., liver powder, "orchic" extracts, ovaries, eye tissue, mammary
tissue), glandular powders or extracts (e.g., adrenal gland, thyroid gland), or specific substances extracted from glands or tissues (e.g., melatonin extracted from the pineal gland).

At a future date, we will contact you with guidance on how best to provide
assurance that your products do not contain potentially BSE-infected
materials.

We appreciate your attention to and cooperation in this matter. If you need
more information, please contact Dr. Elisa Elliot by telephone at (202)
205-5140.

Sincerely yours,
