| 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 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 present 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 alerts for genotoxicity and the data on genotoxicity previously available for these 10 substances, did not rule out the concern for genotoxicity. |
| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) asked the Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (the Panel) 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 evaluate 32 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 18, Revision 2 (FGE.18Rev2), using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These 32 flavouring substances belong to chemical groups 6 and 8, Annex I of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. The present Flavouring Group Evaluation deals with 32 saturated and unsaturated aliphatic acyclic and alicyclic tertiary alcohols, aromatic tertiary alcohols and their esters. Based on their structures, the candidate substances can be subdivided into 8 subgroups. |
| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | The Scientific Panel on Food Additives, Flavourings, Processing Aids and Materials in Contact with Food (the Panel) is asked to advise 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 is asked to evaluate 30 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 18, Revision 1 (FGE.18Rev1), using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. These 30 flavouring substances belong to chemical groups 6 and 8, Annex I of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. In the present Flavouring Group Evaluation, seven of the candidate substances are aliphatic saturated tertiary alcohols and one is an ester of such, five are aliphatic unsaturated tertiary alcohols which possess isolated terminal double bonds and two are esters of such, two are aliphatic unsaturated tertiary alcohols with conjugated terminal double bonds and one is an ester of such, one is an aliphatic unsaturated tertiary alcohol which does not possess terminal double bonds, two are monocyclic saturated tertiary alcohols and one is an ester of such, one is a monocyclic unsaturated tertiary alcohol, two are mono- and bicyclic unsaturated tertiary alcohols with an isolated terminal double bond, one is a bicyclic unsaturated ester, three are bi- and tricyclic tertiary alcohols and one is a tertiary alcohol with an aromatic substituent. |

In particular, the Scientific Panel is asked to evaluate 24 flavouring substances in the Flavouring Group Evaluation FGE.18, using the procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation EC No 1565/2000. These 24 flavouring substances belong to chemical group six, Annex I of the Commission Regulation EC No 1565/2000. The present Flavouring Group Evaluation deals with six aliphatic saturated tertiary alcohols and one ester of such, five aliphatic unsaturated tertiary alcohols with isolated terminal double bonds and one ester of such, two aliphatic unsaturated alcohols with conjugated terminal double bonds and one ester of such, one aliphatic unsaturated tertiary alcohol without isolated or conjugated terminal double bonds, two monocyclic saturated tertiary alcohols and one ester of such, one monocyclic unsaturated tertiary alcohol with an isolated terminal double bond, one bicyclic unsaturated ester, one bicyclic unsaturated tertiary alcohol and one aromatic tertiary alcohol. |
