Value
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Metal species | Inorganic arsenic, sum of As(III) and As(V) |
| Maximum level | 0.030 mg/kg |
| Normalized value | 30 ug/kg |
| Basis | Wet weight |
| Product scope | Non-alcoholic rice-based drinks |
| Regulatory source | Current EU contaminants framework: Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915, Annex I, section 3.4.1.6; value introduced by Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/465 |
HMI use
This is an external regulatory value for Plant Milks, Rice-Based — RETIRED. It is not an HMTc threshold. The comparison layer may place it next to field findings from Inorganic Arsenic in Rice-Based Beverages: Occurrence in Products Available on the Italian Market and Dietary Exposure Assessment because the source reports the same product matrix, analyte species, and unit basis.
Legal Source Handling
Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/465 introduced the 0.030 mg/kg value for non-alcoholic rice-based drinks by amending Regulation (EC) No. 1881/2006. Regulation (EU) 2023/465 was later implicitly repealed when Regulation (EU) 2023/915 replaced and consolidated the EU contaminants framework. For current-facing comparison tables, cite Regulation (EU) 2023/915; retain 2023/465 as the historical amendment trail.
This row is now also represented in the broader EU 2023/915 source ingest at Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915 of 25 April 2023 on maximum levels for certain contaminants in food and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 and the canonical hub EU Regulation 2023/915 maximum levels for contaminants in food.

The five most recent substantive edits to this page, classified major (evidence or structure moved), correction (a published value or statement was wrong and has been fixed), or minor (narrative rewritten without changing the underlying evidence). Each description is derived from what the edit did to this page; the linked commit is the authoritative record, routine regeneration passes are excluded, and the full version history lives in git.
