| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) asked the Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (the Panel) to advise the Commission on the implications for human health of chemically defined flavouring substances used in or on foodstuffs in the Member States. In particular, the Panel was requested to evaluate 37 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 25, Revision 2 (FGE.25Rev2), using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These 37 flavouring substances belong to chemical group 31, Annex I of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. The 37 candidate substances are aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, which have been divided into eight subgroups: I) acyclic alkanes, II) acyclic alkenes, III) cyclohexene hydrocarbons, IVa) benzene hydrocarbons, IVb) napthalene hydrocarbons, IVc) diphenylmethane, V) bi- and tricyclic, nonaromatic hydrocarbons and VI) macrocyclic, non-aromatic hydrocarbons. |
