Import Tips
• Certify 100% bovine origin via DNA testing if challenged, as blends could reclassify under multi-species codes
• Declare exact fat content and emulsification process to prevent confusion with Chapter 21 extracts
• Use tamper-evident airtight seals and document pressure sterilization for FDA prior notice
