| 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. The JECFA has evaluated 37 flavouring substances in the group aliphatic, linear alpha,betaunsaturated aldehydes, acids and related alcohols, acetals and esters at their 63rd meeting. Five of the 37 flavouring substances evaluated by the JECFA are not in the Register [(E)-2-octen-1-ol (JECFA-no: 1370), (E)-2-butenoic acid (JECFA-no: 1371), trans-2-hexenyl pentanoate (JECFA-no: 1379), (E)-2-nonenoic acid (JECFA-no: 1380), mixture of (Z)-3-hexenyl propionate and (E)-2-hexenyl propionate (JECFA-no: 1382)]. Twenty-three substances are alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones considered with respect to genotoxicity in subgroup 1.1.1 of FGE.19, for which a final conclusion as to its genotoxic properties could not be reached and additional data were requested. This consideration therefore only deals with nine alpha,beta-unsaturated acids or esters hereof. The Panel concluded that the nine substances in the JECFA flavouring group of aliphatic, linear alpha,beta-unsaturated carboxylic acids and related esters are structurally related to the group of branched- and straight-chain unsaturated carboxylic acids and esters of these and straight-chain aliphatic saturated alcohols evaluated by EFSA in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 05, Revision 2 (FGE.05Rev2). |
