據(jù)美國食品安全新聞網(wǎng)消息,，近日美國印第安納大學(xué)發(fā)布一項(xiàng)研究指出,，中美兩國嬰兒食品當(dāng)中的阻燃劑含量水平具有可比性，均在不安全水平以下,。

    阻燃劑是一類存在于電子器件,、塑料與紡織品當(dāng)中的一類持久性化學(xué)物質(zhì),，可防止材料著火。近年來,，包括多溴聯(lián)苯醚在內(nèi)的阻燃劑引起了媒體的關(guān)注,，它們存在于沙發(fā)、座椅與床墊的泡沫墊內(nèi),。

    部分原文報(bào)道如下：

    The levels of flame retardant chemicals in baby food from the U.S. and China are well below levels considered unsafe, according to a new study conducted by researchers at the Indiana University School of Public and Environmental Affairs （SPEA）,。

    In fact, the levels of flame retardants in baby food are lower than those in other foods such as meats, dairy products, and even human breast milk.

    Flame retardants are persistent chemicals found in electronics, plastics and textiles that keep the materials from easily catching fire. The compounds, including polybrominated diphenyl ethers （PBDEs）， have gained heightened media attention in recent years for their presence in the foam cushions of couches, chairs and mattresses.
