Eggs from a farm in Ukraine are being recalled after the Singapore Food Agency detectedImported from the LCC “Yasensvit” farm, the eggs with the stamp “CEUA001” were found to contain the bacteria, said the agency on Tuesday.

The farm has since been suspended, and will not be allowed to export their eggs to Singapore until it has rectified its SE contamination issue, said SFA. SE can be present inside the egg as well as on the egg shell, and can survive in raw and undercooked eggs, SFA said. It may cause diarrhoea, abdominal pain, fever, nausea and vomitting, with infections typically subsiding in a week, although it can be serious for people such as the elderly, young children and those with weakened immune systems.

“As SE can be destroyed by heat, eggs are safe to consume if they are cooked thoroughly,” SFA said. It added that proper hygienic practices should also be carried out to prevent cross-contamination with other food. Those who have bought the affected eggs are advised to cook them thoroughly before consumption, and those who have consumed the eggs and are unwell should seek medical attention.
