“…To study the effects of SPS measures on trade flows, scholars commonly introduce SPS, as a kind of factor affecting trade costs, into the classical gravity model (Otsuki & Wilson, 2001;Wei et al, 2012,e.g. ), adopting maximum residual limits (Otsuki & Wilson, 2001;Neeliah & Goburdhun, 2010;Dong, 2011,e.g. ), HACCP standard (Anders & Caswell, 2009;Liu & Yue, 2012,e.g.…”

“…This sharp increase in the number of SPS notifications indicates that the importing countries have paid great attention to food safety issues. This change also has a broad impact on export of agro-products, especially an obvious negative effect on products exporting from developing countries to developed countries (Otsuki & Wilson, 2001;Jongwanich, 2009;Neeliah & Goburdhun, 2010).…”

Sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) measures have become the main obstacles to some China's traditional export product like tea since China's accession to WTO. Different from previous researches, this paper approaches the problem from the perspective of SPS gap between China and importing countries. Based on the panel data of China and its 10 developed trade partners during 1992 to 2013, it applies gravity model to quantify the effects of SPS gap both in quality (i.e use Maximum Residual Limits of fenvalerate and endosulfan as proxy) and in quantity (i.e regulated numbers of Maximum Residual Limits) between China and its partners on China's tea export, the results attribute China's tea restricted by SPS measures to the big gaps from developed countries in maximal residual limits of pesticides and numbers of regulated pesticides.

“…O ideal seria a criação de grupos interministeriais que pudessem trabalhar as AR como um todo, visando todos os potenciais perigos inerentes a importação de um animal ou produto, a fim de ter resultados mais eficientes para a sociedade. Uma alternativa seria criar uma única unidade a qual seria a responsável por coordenar todas as AR realizadas dentro do escopo do acordo SPS evitando a sobreposição de trabalho (Neeliah & Goburdhun 2010, Figueiredo & Miranda 2011. Na Europa, o órgão envolvido na coordenação e condução de avaliações de risco é o EFSA (European Food safety Authority).…”

Pesq. Vet. Bras. 34(6):542-554, junho 2014 542 RESUMO.-O serviço veterinário oficial é responsável por proteger a saúde pública e animal, assegurando a oferta de produtos de origem animal inócuos aos consumidores. Uma ferramenta que auxilia na busca desses objetivos é a análise de risco, que iniciou a ser utilizada na segunda metade da década de 90 pelos serviços veterinários oficiais dos países. Para a realização de uma análise de risco, qualitativa ou quantitativa, inicialmente deve-se identificar o perigo, a qual na área da saúde animal geralmente é o agente patogênico causador de uma doença. A etapa subsequente The official veterinary service is responsible for protecting public and animal health, certifying the supply of safe animal products to consumers. A tool that assists in the pursuit of these goals is the risk analysis, which began to be used in the second half of the 1990s for the official veterinary services of countries. To carry out a risk analysis, qualitative or quantitative, one must initially identify the danger, which in the area of animal health is usually the pathogen causing a disease. The subsequent step is risk assessment, which must be analyzed, supported by scientific studies or experts in the field, the possible ways of introduction, exposition and maintenance of the pathogen in the susceptible population, as well biological, economic, political and social consequences. The third step in the analysis of risk refers to risk management, which aims to propose measures to mitigate the risk to the desired level, and assess the cost/benefit of each measure. The last phase of a risk analysis is risk communication. This step is critical for success of the study and should be initiated along with risk analysis itself, always leaving open a permanent communication with all social actors interested in risk analysis. Risk analysis has become an important tool used by managers of the official veterinary services in decision-making, contributing to the choice of alternatives that give scientifically the lowest animal health risk. This study conducted a review of the literature on risk analysis aimed to expose its definition and development process, as well as to see how it is being used and what limitations and challenges of using this tool by the Brazilian national veterinary service.
