Bio-Cat Inc. has recalled approximately 171,000 kilograms (377,000 pounds) of various bulk enzyme blends, including Cellulase, Pectinase, and Xylanase, used in the manufacturing of animal feed. These raw material enzymes were distributed in boxes and drums ranging from 1 kg to 25 kg to manufacturers and distributors across the United States. The recall was initiated because the enzymes may be contaminated with chloramphenicol, an antibiotic that is not permitted in food-producing animals. Consumers and manufacturers should check their inventory for specific lot numbers and item codes like CELIND, PECCI, and XYXP.
The product may contain chloramphenicol, a potent antibiotic that is strictly prohibited for use in animals intended for human food due to the risk of severe adverse health effects in humans, including the potential for bone marrow suppression.
Return to the place of purchase for a full refund or contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
