| 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 Scientific Panel is 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 consideration concerns a group of 16 alicyclic, alicyclic-fused and aromatic- fused ring lactones evaluated by the JECFA at their 61st meeting. One of the JECFA evaluated substances is not in the Register (dihydro-5-((Z,Z)octa-2,5-dienyl)-2(3H)-furanone) (JECFA-no: 1160) and four [FL-no: 10.034, 10.036, 10.169, 13.012] are precursors for alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones and will be considered together with other alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones and aldehydes. The Panel concluded that the remaining 11 substances in the JECFA flavouring group of alicyclic, alicyclic fused and aromatic-fused ring lactones are structurally related to the aromatic lactone in the FGE.27, as well as to a group of lactones in FGE.10 and the hydrolysis products to secondary and tertiary alcohols in FGE.09 and FGE.18, respectively. |

Furthermore, the JECFA evaluation is supported by a group of lactones evaluated in FGE.10 as well as by alicyclic secondary and tertiary alcohols in FGE.09 and FGE.18, respectively. |
