| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | The Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (the Panel) was asked to provide scientific advise for 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 asked to evaluate flavouring substances using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. The present Flavouring Group Evaluation 212 (FGE.212) concerns 23 substances which correspond to subgroup 2.6 of FGE.19. Fifteen of these substances are alpha,beta-unsaturated alicyclic ketones [FL-no: 07.033, 07.035, 07.094, 07.098, 07.112, 07.126, 07.129, 07.140, 7.146, 07.147, 07.172, 07.175, 07.196, 07.202 and 07.255] and eight are precursors for such ketones [FL-no: 02.062, 02.083, 02.101, 02.214, 09.143, 09.215, 09.821 and 09.870]. |
| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | Authority was requested to evaluate the genotoxic potential of 22 flavouring substances from subgroup 2.6 of FGE.19 in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 212. Based on available genotoxicity data and new genotoxicity data submitted by the Industry, the Panel concluded that genotoxic potential could be ruled out for the six carvone derivatives [FL-no: 02.062, 07.146, 07.147, 09.143, 09.215 and 09.870], the 11 isophorone derivatives [FL-no: 02.083, 02.101, 07.035, 07.098, 07.126, 07.129, 07.172, 07.175, 07.196, 07.202 and 07.255] and the five substances [FL-no: 07.033, 07.094, 07.112, 07.140 and 07.219] from subgroup 2.6 in FGE.212, FGE.212Rev1 and FGE.212Rev3, respectively. Two substances previously included in FGE.212Rev2, vetiverol and vetiveryl acetate [FL-no: 02.214 and 09.821], are no longer supported by Industry. Based on the available data, all 22 substances of this FGE are no longer of concern with respect to genotoxicity and can be evaluated through the Procedure. |
| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | Following a request from the European commission, the EFSA 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 (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 revision of FGE.51, FGE.51Rev2, is due to new genotoxicity data evaluated in FGE.212Rev3 (EFSA CEF Panel, 2015a), which deals only with the genotoxic potential of alpha,beta-unsaturated flavouring substances. Based on these data, the Panel concluded that the data available could rule out the concern for genotoxicity for [FL-no: 07.033, 07.094, 07.112 and 07.140] and accordingly these substances can be evaluated through the Procedure in this revision. |

In particular, the Panel was asked to evaluate flavouring substances using the Procedure as referred to in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. In the present revision of FGE.212, FGE.212Rev1, there has been a reassessment of [FL-no: 02.083, 02.101, 07.033, 07.035, 07.094, 07.098, 07.112, 07.129, 07.140, 07.172, 07.175, 07.196, 07.202 and 07.255] for which there were a request for genotoxicity data in FGE.212.

| Carcinogenicity_EU_PPP | - | - | - | The Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids of the European Food Safety Authority was requested to evaluate the genotoxic potential of 24 flavouring substances from subgroup 2.6 of FGE.19 in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 212, Revision 2. The Panel concluded in FGE.212, that the genotoxic potential could be ruled out for d-carvone [FL-no: 07.146] together with the structurally related l-carvone [FL-no: 07.147] as well as carveol and the carvyl derivatives [FL-no: 02.062, 09.143, 09.215 and 09.870]. Based on available genotoxicity data and new submitted genotoxicity data from the Industry, the Panel concluded that the genotoxic potential could be ruled out for the 11 isophorone derivatives [FL-no: 02.083, 02.101, 07.035, 07.098, 07.126, 07.129, 07.172, 07.175, 07.196, 07.202 and 07.255] and the two vetiveryl derivatives [FL-no: 02.214 and 09.821] in FGE.212Rev1 and FGE.212Rev2, respectively. For the remaining five substances [FL-no: 07.033, 07.094, 07.112, 07.140 and 07.219] from subgroup 2.6 there is still a genotoxicity concern and additional data are required. |
