Ethylene Oxide is used as a fumigant for controlling post-harvest insects, moulds, and pathogens in a variety of food. The use of ethylene oxide on foods is being phased out worldwide which include New Zealand. Due to the low concentration of ethylene oxide, the acute food safety risk is low and for the risk to be of any concern the exposure needs to be continual over a long period of time.
