Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP - - - The EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (CEF) was requested to evaluate the genotoxic potential of flavouring substances from subgroup 2.2 of FGE.19 in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 208 Revision 2 (FGE.208Rev2).
Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP - - - Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (CEF) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion 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 0 (hereafter 'the Procedure'). The Union List of flavourings and source materials was established by Commission Implementing Regulation (EC) No 872/2012. The list contains flavouring substances for which the scientific evaluation should be completed in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. The Flavouring Group Evaluation 208 (FGE.208), corresponding to subgroup 2.2 of FGE.19, concerns three alicyclic aldehydes with the alpha,beta-unsaturation in ring / side-chain and seven precursors for such. The alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde structure, which is a structural alert for genotoxicity and the data on genotoxicity previously available for these 10 substances, did not rule out the concern for genotoxicity.
