Notice of modification to the List of Permitted Emulsifying, Gelling, Stabilizing or Thickening Agents to enable the use of alpha-cyclodextrin in various foods |
Summary |
Health Canada's Food Directorate completed a premarket safety and efficacy assessment of a food additive submission seeking authorization for the use of alpha-(α)-cyclodextrin in various foods. α-Cyclodextrin is a new food additive in Canada.
The results of the premarket assessment support the safety and efficacy of α-cyclodextrin for use as a food additive. Consequently, Health Canada is authorizing the use of α-cyclodextrin as described in the information document by modifying the List of Permitted Emulsifying, Gelling, Stabilizing or Thickening Agents, effective 31 May 2023.
The purpose of this information document is to publicly announce the Department's decision in this regard and to provide the appropriate contact information for those wishing to submit an inquiry or new scientific information relevant to the safety of this food additive.
