Thanks to Ferdinand for going to the root of this matter (I am contracting for the missing references. Please be patient):
Regulations regarding Bio-Dynamic Preparations in the EU
To your question concerning the preparations: a new EC hygiene regulation (1774/2002) enter into force as from 30th April 2003 in the whole EC. With this regulation the using of some covers for bd preparations is forbidden.
Horns can be used as before as well as stag bladders. The bovel of bovines is risico material and can be only used from BSE-free countries. That means, that the bovel must be imported as well as the mesenterium. But the peritoneum can be used because it belongs to foodstuff.
The using of skulls of domestic animals is differenet. Skulls of bovines under the age of 1 year can be used as well as skulls of pigs. Skulls of older bovines, sheeps and goats may not used.
Attached please find some information to this regulation and the activities of the biodynamic associations in the EC.
With best regards,
Ute Bucholski Demeter International
