  "bluf": "Commission Regulation (EU) No 107/2013, adopted on 5 February 2013 and published in the Official Journal of the European Union (L 35/1) on 6 February 2013, amends Annex I to Directive 2002/32/EC on undesirable substances in animal feed. The Regulation establishes a specific maximum level for melamine in canned wet pet food of 2,5 mg/kg on an 'as sold' basis, replacing the prior framework which expressed maximum levels relative to a feed with a moisture content of 12%. The regulatory action is grounded in scientific evidence that melamine, used in the coating of cans containing pet food, can migrate into that pet food. Information demonstrated that melamine can migrate in wet pet food from the can coating at a level above 2,5 mg/kg relative to a feed with a moisture content of 12% but below the specific migration limit (SML) of 2,5 mg/kg in the wet pet food. In light of this development in scientific and technical knowledge, the Commission established the maximum level of 2,5 mg/kg for melamine for canned wet pet food on an 'as sold' basis, in line with what is foreseen for canned food under Commission Regulation (EU) No 10/2011. The Regulation is binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States, entering into force on the twentieth day following its publication in the Official Journal.",
