3 Basic requirements
3.1 When detergents are used under the conditions recommended, the level of substances remain in, or transferred to food shall not endanger human health.
3.2 When detergents are used under the conditions recommended, the level of substances remain in, or transferred to food shall not lead to any change of food composition, structure, color, flavor or other properties, and shall not result in any technical functions of food.
3.3 The raw materials of detergent shall comply with national relevant standards and regulations, and manufacturers shall control unintentional additives such as impurities, decomposition products and reaction products to ensure that products meet the requirements of 3.1 and 3.2.
4 Technical requirements
