Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP - - - The Scientific Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (the Panel) was asked to provide scientific advice to 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 41 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 20, Revision 2 (FGE.20Rev2), using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These 41 flavouring substances belong to chemical group 23 and 30, Annex I of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. FGE.20Rev2 includes the assessment of 5 additional candidate substances compared to FGE.20Rev1. The present FGE.20Rev2 deals in total with 41 benzyl alcohols, benzaldehydes, related acetals, benzoic acids and related esters and a hydroxy- and alkoxy-substituted biphenyl derivative.

In particular, the Panel was requested to evaluate 45 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 20, Revision 4 (FGE.20Rev4), using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These flavouring substances belong to chemical groups 23 and 30, Annex I of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. The present revision of FGE.20, FGE.20Rev4, includes the evaluation of four additional substances, o- m- and p-tolualdehyde [FL no: 05.026, 05.028 and 05.029] and phenylmethyl 2-methyl-2-butenoate [09.858].
