1 Scope
This standard is applicable to formula for infants aged 0~6 months.
2 Terms and definitions
2.1 infant formula
formula which is applicable to normal infants, with energy and nutrient ingredients which can meet the normal nutritional needs of infants aged 0~6 months
2.1.1 milk-based infant formula
products produced and processed through only physical method, using milk and milk protein products as main protein sources, by adding an proper amount of vitamin, mineral substance and/or other raw materials
2.1.2 soy-based infant formula
products produced and processed through only physical method, using soys and soy protein products as main protein sources, by adding an proper amount of vitamin, mineral substance and/or other raw materials
3 Technical requirements
3.1 Requirements for raw materials
3.1.1 The raw materials used in the products shall meet the related safety standard and/or requirements, guarantee the safety of infants, and meet their nutritional need. The substances with the hazards on infant nutrition and health must not be applied.
3.1.2 The raw materials and food additives used shall not contain gluten.
3.1.3 Hydrogenated oil and fat shall not be used.
3.1.4 Irradiated raw materials shall not be used.
3.2 Sensory requirements
The color, lustre, taste, odour, texture and fast dissolvability of infant formula shall conform to the characteristics of the corresponding products, and there shall be no foreign matter visible in normal vision.
3.3 Essential ingredients
3.3.1 All essential ingredients contained in the product are essential to the growth and development of infants.
3.3.2 The product shall, at the ready-to-eat condition, contain the energy of 250kJ (60kcal)~295kJ (70kcal) per 100mL. The calculation method of energy is to multiply the contents of protein, fat and carbohydrate per 100mL of product respectively by the energy coefficient 17kJ/g, 37kJ/g and 17kJ/g (the energy coefficient of dietary fiber is 8kJ/g); sum above values expressed in kJ/100mL; divide the sum by 4.184, expressed in kcal/100mL.
3.3.3 The contents of protein, fat and carbohydrate in per 100kJ (100kcal) of the product shall meet those specified in Table 1.
3.3.4 Fructose and sucrose shall not be used as carbohydrate sources in infant formula, and the glucose polymer may be added appropriately (starch may only be added after pregelatinization). For milk-based infant formula, lactose shall be the preferred carbohydrate source (lactose shall account for not less than 90% of carbohydrate content).
