| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) asked the Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (the Panel) to deliver a 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 24 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 24, Revision 2 (FGE.24Rev2), using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These 24 derivatives of pyridine, pyrrole, indole and quinoline belong to chemical group 28, Annex I of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. The present revision of FGE.24, FGE.24Rev2, includes the assessment of new toxicity data on one supporting substance, 2-acetylpyrrole [FL-no: 14.047], to cover the re-evaluation of one candidate substance, 2-acetyl-5-methylpyrrole [FL-no: 14.085], for which additional data were required. Since the publication of the previous version of FGE.24, FGE.24Rev1, nine of the original 33 candidate substances [FL-no: 13.100, 14.002, 14.023, 14.094, 14.107, 14.138, 14.145, 14.163 and 14.169], for which additional data were required, are no longer supported by Industry for use as flavouring substances in Europe and will therefore not be considered any further. This revision of FGE.24, FGE.24Rev2, therefore deals only with 24 candidate substances. |

These 31 flavouring substances belong to chemical group 28, Annex I of the Commission Regulation EC No 1565/2000. The present Flavouring Group Evaluation deals with 31 pyridine, pyrrole, indole and quinoline derivatives. |
