| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | The Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (the Panel) was asked to provide scientific advise for 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 asked to evaluate flavouring substances using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. The present Flavouring Group Evaluation 214 (FGE.214) concerns 29 substances. The 29 substances correspond to subgroup 3.1 of FGE.19. Eleven of these substances are alpha,beta-unsaturated cinnamyl aldehydes [FL-no: 05.014, 05.039, 05.040, 05.041, 05.048, 05.050, 05.051, 05.118, 05.122, 05.154 and 05.155] and 18 are precursors for such aldehydes [FL-no: 02.017, 02.030, 06.013, 06.014, 09.018, 09.026, 09.053, 09.085, 09.090, 09.133, 09.306, 09.339, 09.459, 09.468, 09.470, 09.708, 09.739 and 09.780]. |
| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA 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 18 compounds belonging to chemical group (CG) 22. |
| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | The Scientific Panel on Food 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 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. This consideration deals with 54 substances in the group of cinnamyl alcohol and related substances evaluated by JECFA at their 55th meeting. The Panel concluded that the 54 substances in the JECFA flavouring group of cinnamyl alcohol and related flavouring substances are structurally related to the group of nine aryl-substituted saturated and unsaturated primary alcohol/aldehyde/acid/ester derivatives evaluated by EFSA in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 15, Revision 1 (FGE.15Rev1). |
