In the Murmansk region was not allowed to sell Apatite cheese and Murmansk dried fish

Since the beginning of 2026, 61 declarations of conformity for livestock products have been invalidated in the Murmansk region. This was reported by the press service of the North Sea Interregional Directorate of Rosselkhoznadzor.

Of these, 50 declarations concerned fish products, 11 - dairy. This prevented the sale of potentially unsafe products. The main reasons for the recall were incorrect research methods and an incomplete set of tests.

In October, the declaration was withdrawn for cheese and cottage cheese from Apatite. The tests did not cover all safety indicators: they did not check the appearance, consistency, taste, smell, color, mass proportion of fat and protein, microbiology.

In August, the declaration on dried fish from Murmansk was terminated: flounder, smelt, capelin, perch and other species. There were no parasitological studies in the protocols, and the mercury content was checked incorrectly.

Manufacturers were given warnings. During the same period of 2025, 58 declarations were withdrawn. At the same time, five manufacturers made false declarations last year and this year.

Earlier, “MK in Murmansk” said that in the Murmansk region for the quarter did not find a single case of dangerous diseases in animals.
