| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (CEF Panel) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion 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 consider the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (the JECFA) evaluations of flavouring substances assessed since 2000, and to decide whether no further evaluation is necessary, as laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These flavouring substances are listed in the Register, which was adopted by Commission Decision 1999/217/EC and its consecutive amendments. After consideration of the limited genotoxicity data available, the Panel concluded these data do not preclude evaluation of the 11 flavouring substances in the present group of JECFA-evaluated tetrahydrofuran derivatives using the Procedure. |

These flavouring substances are listed in the Register, which was adopted by Commission Decision 1999/217/EC, and its consecutive amendments. The present consideration concerns 11 of 18 flavouring substances consisting of tetrahydrofuran derivatives and a furanone derivative evaluated by the JECFA (63rd meeting). The Panel concluded that the 11 substances evaluated by the JECFA were structurally related to six tetrahydrofuran derivatives evaluated by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in Flavouring Group Evaluation 33 (FGE.33). |
