Corn fiber — cross-standard identity (EU Reg 68/2013 / CN 公告1773)
Derived crosswalk of how one pet-food ingredient is named and defined across jurisdictions. No claim of regulatory equivalence is made — pairings are anchored on Latin name + process and the verdict states where the definitions actually diverge.
- Latin anchor: Zea mays L. (maize fibre)
- Process anchor: EU Reg 68/2013
1.2.7(maize fibre). CN 公告1773 has no standalone "玉米纤维"/"corn fiber" entry — see CN cell below. - Verdict:
no_confirmed_equivalent
Per-jurisdiction entry
- 🇺🇸 AAFCO (US) — Ch.6
48.2"Corn Bran": AAFCO defines Corn Bran (48.2) as the outer coat of the corn kernel with little or none of the starchy germ (adopted 1931). Corn fiber is this outer kernel coating, so it maps to Corn Bran as the closest AAFCO match. Verdict = closest_with_differences for the AAFCO axis. _(paraphrase) — AAFCO OP 2024 Ch.6, code 48.2; not verbatim)_

1.2.7"Maize fibre": Product of the manufacture of maize starch. It consists principally of fibre. _(src: EU Reg 68/2013 Annex, code 1.2.7)_
- 🇨🇳 CN — 公告1773: no confirmed equivalent entry named "玉米纤维" / "corn fiber" exists in the CN feed-ingredient directory (Ann.1773) — the directory has no standalone maize-fibre entry. The closest real 1773 material is
玉米皮(1.13.15, "玉米加工过程中分离出来的皮层", spec 粗纤维 — corn bran/husk), but it is defined as the separated peel/bran, not as maize fibre, so it is not asserted as the equivalent. Verdict = no_confirmed_equivalent for the CN axis. _(src: 农业部公告第1773号 饲料原料目录, entry 玉米皮 1.13.15)_
- 🇨🇦 CA — honest gap: not listed in CFIT as a recognized feed ingredient. _(src: Canadian Feed Ingredients Table (CFIT), inspection.canada.ca; SOR/2024-132)_
Crosswalk verdict
EU Reg 68/2013 1.2.7 "Maize fibre" is a defined material, but CN 公告1773 has no standalone corn-fibre / 玉米纤维 entry and the closest real 1773 material (玉米皮, corn bran/husk) is not the same regulatory unit. The crosswalk verdict is therefore no_confirmed_equivalent across the CN axis; no fabricated CN pairing is asserted.

- 🇷🇺 RU (ЕАЭС ТР ТС 024/2011): not retrieved — the in-force EAEU feed technical regulation exists, but its feed-material nomenclature could not be obtained as a first-hand parseable substring in this environment (adilet.zan.kz / docs.cntd.ru returned 000, eec.eaeunion.org 404 via Tokyo relay; JS-gated). Honest gap, not fabricated.
> Method: derived_from_dataset. Every quoted name/definition is from the first-hand source cited per cell. Equivalence is a derived editorial judgement anchored on Latin name + process; where jurisdictions use different regulatory units the verdict is closest_with_differences / no_confirmed_equivalent rather than 'same'.
