EPOXIDES

摘要

The Committee evaluated a group of seven epoxides that includes two phenylglycidate derivatives (Nos 2143 and 2144), two terpene epoxides (Nos 2145 and 2146) and three aliphatic epoxides (Nos 2147-2149). The evaluations were conducted according to theProcedure for the Safety Evaluation of Flavouring Agents (see Figure 1, Introduction) (Annex 1, reference 131). None of these flavouring agents have previously been evaluated.The Committee previously evaluated nine other members of this group of flavouring agents at the sixty-fifth meeting (Annex 1, reference 178). The Committee concluded that the nine flavouring agents in that group were of no safety concern at estimated dietary exposures.
