1 Flavourings Legislation and Safety Assessment Dr Iona Pratt, FSAI
2 Food Improvement Agents Package (FIAP) Regulation 1331/2008 establishing a common authorisation procedure for additives, enzymes and flavourings Regulation 1332/2008 on food enzymes Regulation 1333/2008 on food additives Regulation 1334/2008 on flavourings and certain food ingredients with flavouring properties for use in and on foods
3 Currently applicable EU legislation on flavourings Legislative Instrument Regulation 1331/2008 Regulation 1334/2008 Regulation 234/2011 Regulation 872/2012 Content of the legislation establishes a common procedure for the authorisation (by the European Commission) for food additives, food enzymes and food flavourings, before they can be used in food lays down the legislative requirements for flavourings and certain food ingredients with flavouring properties for use in and on foods lays down the specific data that are required for the risk assessment and risk management of flavourings adopts the list of flavouring substances (Annex I, Part A, to Regulation 1334/2008.)
4 Currently applicable EU legislation on flavourings Legislation Commission Decision 1999/217/EC Regulation 873/2012 Regulation 2065/2003 on smoke flavourings Regulation 627/2006 Content of the legislation gave force to a Community register of flavouring substances that can be used in or on foodstuffs until date of application of list of chemically defined flavouring substances (22 April 2013). Repealed as of that date provides transitional measures concerning the Union list of flavourings and source materials lays down the procedure for regulation and evaluation of the primary products which are the main ingredients in smoke flavourings, while the associated Regulation 627/2006 lays down quality criteria for analytical methods for sampling, identification and characterisation of these products
5 Regulation 1334/2008 Entered into force 20 th January 2009 Most articles applied from 20 th January 2011 Sections relating to the Union list apply from 22 April 2013 Core principles and provisions of the previous legislation (Regs. 88/388 and 91/171) are maintained
6 Core principles and provisions definition of flavourings general rules for their use designation of flavourings in list of ingredients requirements for labelling maximum levels for substances which raise concern for human health New aspects include: adoption and updating of Union list of flavourings through comitology Core role for EFSA in the risk assessment of flavourings
7 What is a flavouring? Defined in Art 3.2.(a) Not consumed as such, added to impart or modify odour and/or taste Consists of one or more of the 6 flavour categories: Flavouring preparations, flavouring substances, smoke flavourings, thermal process flavourings, flavour precursors and other flavourings Can also contain additives and food ingredients
8 What is a flavouring? a single flavouring substance, e.g. vanillin Mixture of flavouring components typically contains 30/40 substances flavour components - very low levels and the flavouring used also at very low levels. also non flavouring materials e.g. solvents, antioxidants and emulsifiers
9 Flavouring substance versus flavouring preparation? A flavouring substance is a defined chemical substance, e.g. Menthol. A flavouring preparation is not a defined chemical substance, e.g. peppermint oil.
10 PEPPERMINT FLAVOURING Component Concentration (%) Peppermint oil 2.5 Water 77.5 Alcohol (ethyl alcohol) 20.0 % content of main flavouring substances in the peppermint oil (2.5%) Menthol Menthone Menthyl acetate Isomenthone Menthofuran Cineole Pulegone < 0.1 Carvone < Isopulegol < α-pinene, β-pinene < Etc.
11 Types of flavourings Flavouring substances evaluation by EFSA and approval Flavouring preparations - from sources other than food Flavour precursors - from sources other than food Union list Smoke flavourings Other flavourings Thermal process flavour - from sources other than food and/or > 180 C Source materials - from sources other than food
12 Examples of the various flavouring categories Natural flavouring substance: Limonene obtained from oranges Flavouring substance: Ethyl butyrate made by a chemical route Flavouring preparation: Orange oil Thermal process flavouring: A meat flavour made by heating xylose (a reducing sugar) and cysteine (an amino acid) Precursor flavouring: An unheated blend of amino acids and sugars which will produce a flavour in the final food Other flavouring It s there just in case!
13 Labelling provisions in 1334/2008 are more rigorous than before Articles cover general labelling provisions for business to business labelling Article 17 covers sales of flavourings direct to the consumer (e.g. small bottles used for home baking) Article 29 covers the designation of flavourings in the ingredient list of the final food but makes reference to Article 16 (provisions regarding the use of the word natural )
14 Ingredient list designation (labelling) under 1334/2008 Specifies when natural flavouring can be used to describe a flavouring in the ingredient list Can t just say natural flavouring in most cases Flavouring preparations and natural flavouring substances can be used in natural flavourings the other categories of flavouring materials can not be present. The presence of other non-natural materials, e.g. solvents, does not affect the natural status.
15 MORE FROM ANNE-MARIE!
16 Presence of certain undesirable substances Some food/flavour extracts naturally contain low levels of substances which are thought to have toxicological issues. E.g. menthofuran These substances can t be added as such. Majority of the materials were restricted in the previous legislation but the way this is done has been changed in Regulation 1334/2008
17 Active principles Allowed at any level in foods apart from those listed where a maximum level is set Maximum level set in all food with higher levels for certain specialist categories. NEW OLD
18 Presence of certain undesirable substances Regulation 1334/2008 only controls those sources that have a key influence on intake. There is no overall level set in food. There are specific levels for those foods which are thought to provide the major intake. The principles of general food law apply.
19 Examples of restrictions Substance Food Max. level mg/kg or mg/l Estragol Dairy products, Processed fruits 50 vegetables, nuts and seeds 50 Fish products 50 Non-alcoholic beverages 10 Hydrocyanic acid Nougat, marzipan or its substitutes or similar products 50 Canned stone fruits 5 Alcoholic beverages 35 Menthofuran Mint/peppermint-containing confectionery, except Micro breath freshening confectionery 3000 Chewing gum 1000 Mint/peppermint containing 200 alcoholic beverages
20 The Community Register of flavouring substances Commission Decision 88/379/EC established an inventory of source materials and substances used in the preparation of flavourings forerunner to the register of flavouring substances Com. Decision 1999/217/EC register of approximately 2600 flavouring substances in use in food in the EU evaluation programme
21 The Community Register of flavouring substances SUBSTANCES EVALUATED BY EFSA: 570 SUBSTANCES EVALUATED BEFORE EFSA: + 21 SUBSTANCES DELETED FROM REGISTER on request of industry = 2658 SUBSTANCES IN EFSA FLAVIS DATABASE Register + New substances)
22 EU list of flavouring substances COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 872/2012 adopting the list of flavouring substances provided for by Regulation (EC) 2232/96 of the European Parliament and of the Council, introducing it in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000 and Commission Decision 1999/217/EC Adopted by qualified majority at SCOFAH, 23 April, 2012, final adoption/publication 1 October 2012.
23 Transitional measures COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 873/2012 on transitional measures concerning the Union list of flavourings and source materials set out in Annex I of Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008 adoption of the Annex could have meant that all substances/ processes etc. not included in the Annex should be prohibited from 6 months after adoption But not yet evaluated! Regulation 873/2012 allows transitional measures while evaluation is completed
24 Date Dates of application of the provisions of Regulation 1334/2008 Applicable provision 22 April, 2013 Union list of flavouring substances applies 31 Dec Latest date for submission of data requested by EFSA on footnote (1) flavouring substances 22 Oct Food containing flavouring substances not included in the Union list may be only be marketed until date of minimum durability or use-by date is reached 22 Oct Deadline for submission of application by industry for authorisation of a flavouring preparation, thermal process flavouring, flavour precursor, other flavouring or source material 22 Oct Parts B to F of Annex 1 of Regulation 1334/2008 apply. Foods containing flavourings and source materials which do not comply with parts B to F of Annex 1 may be only be marketed until their date of minimum durability or use-by date is reached
25 Safety assessment of flavourings in the EC Large number of flavourings and flavouring foodstuffs already on the market (3000+) EFSA has been systematically evaluating these substances since 2002, based on available data
26 Safety assessment of flavourings in the EC Safety is assessed using the traditional risk assessment paradigm hazard identification, hazard characterisation, exposure assessment, risk characterisation Limited opportunity to ask for safety data on the old flavouring substances Very limited information on actual exposure of the consumer
27 Risk Assessment of Flavouring Substances: General Principles Assignment of flavouring substances with common structural elements to compound classes (I - III) (Cramer et al., 1978) Comparison of intake to thresholds of concern for each class Assessment of potential metabolites Particular attention paid to genotoxicity I. Non-genotoxic, innocuous metabolites and intake < threshold of concern no safety concern at the estimated level of intake II. potentially harmful metabolites and/or intake > threshold of concern toxicological assessment NOAEL / adequate margin of safety
28 Safety assessment of flavourings in the EC Safety assessment is not as extensive as for e.g. food additives But: ~ 3000 flavourings to assess Exposure is generally very low Many (most) flavourings occur naturally in food Risk is in reality very low
29 EFSA opinion on risk (published) Safety, conditions of use and (?) maximum permitted levels in food discussed in Working Group on Flavouring Substances (governmental experts on flavourings) Agreement on these, substances added to the Community list
30 For new flavouring substances in the future there is requirement for specific data before the substance can be added to the Community list
31 CONCLUSIONS Flavourings go through an extensive period of safety assessment and review before they are authorised for use in food in Europe A number of bodies involved in assessment (EFSA, European Commission, national experts, European Parliament) = multiple checks
32 Thank you! Any questions?
