WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Mead Johnson Nutrition (MJN) said it was notified by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) that health inspectors have completed their testing on all formula samples collected from the company.
These tests confirmed that the Mead Johnson products were safe, and no presence of Cronobacter was detected. This is consistent with two rounds of testing conducted by Mead Johnson.
Mead Johnson has been informed that all samples collected from the company - and related to health investigations in Missouri and Illinois - have been found safe. Mead Johnson emphasizes these are the only incidents that led to tests on its products.
Mead Johnson noted that all its infant formulas, including Enfamil Premium Newborn, undergo about 2,300 quality checks and safety tests to ensure that they meet or exceed our own rigorous standards, and those set by the WHO, the FDA and other regulatory bodies before they are made available to consumers.
