Materials Originating from Living Organisms

Materials Originating from Living Organisms

The term "living organisms" is used throughout the Japanese original regulatory documents, however the operational meaning is limited to materials originating from human and animals. While the rules and requirements of the key documents "Standards for Raw Materials Originating from Living Organisms" cover exclusively the human and animal (mammals, birds, and insects)-derived materials, as the other "living organisms" such as plants are excluded.
