| 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 202 (FGE.202) concerns a total of 37 substances. The 37 substances correspond to subgroup 1.1.3 of FGE.19. Three of these substances are aliphatic acyclic 3-alkylated alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes with and without additional (non-conjugated) double bonds and 34 are precursors for such aldehydes. |

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 evaluated a group of 22 aliphatic branched-chain saturated and unsaturated alcohols, aldehydes, acids, and related esters at the 61st meeting. The Panel concluded that the 22 substances are structurally related to the group of branched- and straight-chain unsaturated carboxylic acids and esters of these with aliphatic saturated alcohols evaluated by EFSA in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 05, Revision 2 (FGE.05Rev2). |

These flavouring substances are listed in the Register, which was adopted by Commission Decision 1999/217/EC and its consecutive amendments. In the first version of Flavouring Group Evaluation 72 (FGE.72), EFSA considered a group of 22 aliphatic branched-chain saturated and unsaturated alcohols, aldehydes, acids and related esters which had been evaluated by the JECFA at their 61st meeting. The present revision of FGE.72 is prepared due to inclusion of one additional substance, 2,6-dimethyl-2,5,7-octatriene-1-ol acetate [FL-no: 09.931], which has been cleared for genotoxicity concern in FGE.207. The Panel concluded that the 23 substances are structurally related to the group of branched- and straight-chain unsaturated carboxylic acids and esters of these with aliphatic saturated alcohols evaluated by EFSA in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 05, Revision 2 (FGE.05Rev2). |
