China is primary source for some B vitamins, amino acids, and taurine

The following news comes from Petfood Industry E-News, June 5, 2007.

Most petfood ingredients come from the US, but China is a primary source for some B vitamins and amino acids, including taurine used in cat foods. China also supplies about 8% of the USA's wheat gluten. Rather than “shut the door” on China ingredients, Pet Food Institute (PFI) president Duane Ekedahl says better procedures are needed to ensure quality. Many petfood makers are now reportedly screening for melamine. The FDA is also requiring importers prove to the agency that China-produced vegetable proteins are safe before they're let in the US.
