Commission Regulation (EU) 2016/1244 of 28 July 2016 amending Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards certain flavouring substances from a group related with an alpha beta unsaturation structure (Text with EEA relevance) |
Tóm tắt |
The Union list of flavourings and source materials is laid down in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1334/3008. The Union list was established by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 872/2012 which will be amended by the notified measure.
This amendment concerns the modification of the conditions of use of the following five substances belonging to the chemical subgroup 2.2 of FGE.19 (FGE.208): p-mentha-1,8-dien-7-ol (FL no. 02.060), myrtenol (FL no. 02.091), myrtenal (FL no. 05.106), p-mentha-1,8-dien-7-yl acetate (FL no. 09.278), and myrtenyl acetate (FL no. 09.302).
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) had requested additional scientific data for completion of the evaluation as flavouring substances of the group of substances FGE.208 composed of ten substances which includes these substances. EFSA evaluated the data on this group of substances in its opinion of 24 June 2015 and concluded that the representative substance of the group p-mentha-1,8-dien-7-al (FL-no 05.117) is genotoxic in vivo and therefore its use as a flavouring substance raises a safety concern. This substance was withdrawn from the Union list with Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1760 in an urgent procedure. This measure had been notified earlier in G/SPS/N/EU/149.
The EFSA opinion is available as Scientific Opinion on Flavouring Group Evaluation 208 Revision 1 (FGE.208Rev1): consideration of genotoxicity data on representatives for ten alicyclic aldehydes with the α,β-unsaturation in ring/side-chain and precursors from chemical subgroup 2.2 of FGE.19.
