General Standard for Food Additives: Notes to the Comments for the Proposed Draft Schedule of Food Additives Specifically Permitted in Foods - Antioxidants & Preservatives

Note 1:

ADI as ascorbyl palmitate, ascorbyl stearate, or both. Use level reported as ascorbyl stearate.

Note 2:

Level in food as consumed.

Note 3:

Group ADI for benzoic acid and its calcium, potassium, and sodium salts, and benzyl acetate, alcohol, and benzoate. Use level reported as benzoic acid.

Note 4:

Used in concentrated form of food.

Note 5:

Fat or oil basis.

Note 6:

ADI note: conditional 0.05-0.25.

Note7

ADI as calcium disodium EDTA; no excess of disodium EDTA should remain in foods.

Note 8:

ADI note: provisional maximum tolerable daily intake (PMTDI) for iron.

Note 9:

Group ADI for formic acid and ethyl formate. INS Nos. 237 and 238 = NE, but are included in the group because they are salt forms of a weak acid (INS No. 236). Use

level reported as formic acid.

Note 10:

ADI as sum of ethyl, methyl, and propyl compounds. INS Nos. 215, 217, & 219 = NE, but are included in the group because these compounds are covered by the group

ADI in the broadest sense. Use level reported as p-hydroxybenzoic acid.

Note 11:

Surface treatment only.

Note 12:

ADI note: high viscosity (incl. P100(H) oil) = 20; medium and low viscosity: Class I (incl. P70(H) oil) = 1 (temporary); Class II (include. N70(H) & N70(A) oils) and Class

III (incl. P15(H), N15(H), & N10(A) oils) = 0.01 (temporary group ADI).

Note 13:

Unconditional ADI in Units/kg bw.

Note 14:

ADI as nitrate ion.

Note 15:

As residual NaNO_3.

Note 16:

Residual level.

Note 17:

Added level; 250 mg/kg residual level.

Note 18:

Added level: 70 mg/kg residual level.

Note 19:

As residual NO;.

Note 20:

Use level as mg/L raw mash.

Note 21:

ADI as nitrite ion.

Note 22:

Added level; 175 mg/kg residual level as NaNO₃.

Note 23:

Added level; 50 mg/kg residual level as NaNO₃.

Note 24:

Added level; 70 mg/kg residual level as NaNO₃.

Note 25:

Added level; 100 mg/kg residual level.

Note 26:

Maximum tolerable daily intake (MTDI) 70 mg/kg bw, as phosphorus from all sources.

Note 27:

Group ADI for sorbic acid and its calcium, potassium, and sodium salts. Use level reported as sorbic acid.

Note 28:

As tin.

Note 29:

ADI note: provisional maximum tolerable daily intake (PMTDI) for inorganic tin, including stannous chloride.

Note 30:

Group ADI for sulphur dioxide and sulphites, as SO;. Use level reported as residual SO₂..

Note 31:

ADI is temporary.

Note 32:

Use level reported as thiodipropionic acid.
