The affected eggs imported from LCC 'Yasensvit' farm can be identified by the stamp CEUA001 on them.

SINGAPORE: The Singapore Food Agency ordered the recall of eggs imported from LCC"Yasensvit" farm in Ukraine after detecting the presence of Salmonella Enteritidis, it said in a media release on Tuesday .Salmonella Enteritidis may cause foodborne illness if food is consumed raw or undercooked.All batches of eggs with the farm code CEUA001 are implicated in this recall.

Symptoms include diarrhoea, abdominal pain, fever, nausea and vomiting. While the infection typically subsides within a week in most people, Salmonella Enteritidis can cause serious infection in the vulnerable such as the elderly, young children, and those with weakened immune systems.

SFA advise consumers who have purchased the affected eggs to cook them thoroughly before consumption. Those who have consumed the eggs and are unwell should seek medical attention.
