Fonterra, the world's largest dairy exporter, said on Monday it has reassured its global customers that New Zealand dairy products are safe following the discovery of traces of a potentially toxic substance in milk samples.
新西兰的牛奶样品日前被爆检出一种疑似有毒物质。消息曝光后,全球最大的乳品出口商恒天然周一向全球客户保证:其乳制品是安全的。

The New Zealand firm said its testing had found "minute traces" in some of its products of dicyandiamide (DCD), a chemical used in fertilisers to prevent them from soaking into rivers, which can be toxic in large amounts.
恒天然证实在产品测试中发现了“微量” 双氰胺。双氰胺是一种防止肥料渗入河流的化学物质,大量使用有毒。

恒天然公司在一份声明中向客户保证,检测到的双氰胺水平不会威胁到人类健康。

"Customers are satisfied with our answers and the anxiety is dying down," Chief Executive Theo Spierings said later on Radio New Zealand.He said the DCD levels found in tests last year were "100 times less than European standards".
恒天然公司的首席执行官西奥-史毕根斯在新西兰之声中表示,“客户对我​​们的回答表示满意,对此的焦虑也逐步减少。”他同时表示,在去年的检测中发现的双氰胺水平“比欧洲标准少100倍”。

The fertiliser companies making the product have suspended its sale. Fonterra has been working with the government and the industry since last November to resolve the issue, Spierings said.
生产双氰胺的化肥公司已被暂停销售。史毕根斯表示从去年11月开始,公司一直与政府和业界合作来解决问题。

Fonterra is New Zealand's largest company with revenues of around NZ$20 billion ($16.8 billion), and is looking to expand in Asia to tap into the region's growing demand for dairy goods.
