Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP - - - The Scientific Panel on Food Additives, Flavourings, Processing Aids and Materials in Contact with Food (the Panel) is asked 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 is asked to evaluate 30 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 18, Revision 1 (FGE.18Rev1), using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These 30 flavouring substances belong to chemical groups 6 and 8, Annex I of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. In the present Flavouring Group Evaluation, seven of the candidate substances are aliphatic saturated tertiary alcohols and one is an ester of such, five are aliphatic unsaturated tertiary alcohols which possess isolated terminal double bonds and two are esters of such, two are aliphatic unsaturated tertiary alcohols with conjugated terminal double bonds and one is an ester of such, one is an aliphatic unsaturated tertiary alcohol which does not possess terminal double bonds, two are monocyclic saturated tertiary alcohols and one is an ester of such, one is a monocyclic unsaturated tertiary alcohol, two are mono- and bicyclic unsaturated tertiary alcohols with an isolated terminal double bond, one is a bicyclic unsaturated ester, three are bi- and tricyclic tertiary alcohols and one is a tertiary alcohol with an aromatic substituent.
Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP - - - The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) asked the Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (the Panel) 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 32 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 18, Revision 2 (FGE.18Rev2), using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These 32 flavouring substances belong to chemical groups 6 and 8, Annex I of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. The present Flavouring Group Evaluation deals with 32 saturated and unsaturated aliphatic acyclic and alicyclic tertiary alcohols, aromatic tertiary alcohols and their esters. Based on their structures, the candidate substances can be subdivided into 8 subgroups.
Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP - - - Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of 13 compounds (aliphatic, alicyclic and aromatic saturated and unsaturated tertiary alcohols and esters with esters containing tertiary alcohols and ethers, belonging to chemical group 6) when used as flavourings for all animal species. All are currently authorised for use as flavours in food and have all been detected in plant materials, in fruits or in processed foods, however the reports of their distribution vary greatly.
Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP - - - The Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids of the European Food Safety Authority was requested to evaluate 29 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 18, as laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. None of the substances were considered to have a genotoxic potential. The substances were evaluated through a stepwise approach (the Procedure) that integrates information on structure-activity relationships, intake from current uses, toxicological threshold of concern, and available data on metabolism and toxicity. This revision deals with new toxicity data on the supporting substance myrcene [FL-no: 01.008], providing an appropriate NOAEL for the evaluation of candidate substance [FL-no: 02.146]. The Panel concluded that all 29 substances [FL-nos: 02.041, 02.052, 02.054, 02.120, 02.123, 02.129, 02.140, 02.146, 02.144, 02.147, 02.149, 02.150, 02.168, 02.171, 02.181, 02.184, 02.197, 02.203, 02.206, 02.219, 02.226, 02.230, 02.253, 09.171, 09.356, 09.614, 09.617, 09.671 and 09.808] do not give rise to safety concerns at their levels of dietary intake, estimated on the basis of the MSDI approach.
Genetic Toxicity - - - Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of 13 compounds (aliphatic, alicyclic and aromatic saturated and unsaturated tertiary alcohols and esters with esters containing tertiary alcohols and ethers, belonging to chemical group 6) when used as flavourings for all animal species.
