    • Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food (ANS) provides a scientific opinion regarding the safety of the extension of use of the food additive sucralose (E 955) when added to dietary food for special medical purpose (FSMP) intended for young children aged from 1 to 3 years. Sucralose was evaluated by the EU Scientific Committee on Food (SCF) who established an acceptable daily intake (ADI) of 15 mg/kg body weight (bw). Sucralose is authorised in the EU for food use with exception for foods for young children. According to the applicant, the use of sweeteners is required to ensure palatable foods for the dietary management of patients whose compliance with the dietary regime (prescribed by healthcare professionals) is a key factor to their health. The exposure scenarios based on the proposed use by the applicant on the FSMP indicated that the total daily protein requirement (3 g protein/kg bw) could be covered by the product containing 400 mg sucralose/kg without exceeding the ADI. Also, exposure in other scenarios based on different assumptions was always below the ADI. Therefore, the ANS Panel concluded that the proposed extension of use of sucralose (E 955) in FSMP in young children aged from 1 to 3 years would not be of safety concern.

    • 添加到食品食品添加剂和营养来源(ANS)提供了一个科学的观点重新评估安全的瓜尔胶作为食品添加剂(412 E)。在欧盟,瓜尔胶评估了粮农组织/世卫组织食品添加剂专家委员会(联合)在1970年,1974年和1975年,分配一个可接受的每日摄入量(ADI)未指定的。瓜尔胶也评估了食品科学委员会(SCF)在1977年批准了ADI的未指定分配的联合。后国际患者安全分类的概念性框架下的某些食品添加剂重新评估风险评估委员会监管(欧盟)没有257/2010,专家组认为足够的曝光和毒性数据可用为止。瓜尔胶是几乎未消化的,而不是吸收完整,但在人类明显由肠道细菌发酵。没有不良反应报告subchronic和致癌性研究最高剂量测试;没有对基因毒性的关注。口服摄入的瓜尔胶在成人耐受性良好。专家组得出结论,没有必要为一个数值ADI瓜尔胶(E 412),和没有安全关心大众精制暴露评估的瓜尔胶作为食品添加剂(412 E)。专家组认为,瓜尔胶使用的食物用于婴幼儿腹部不适的发生应该监控和如果这种效应是观察到剂量应该被识别为基础进一步风险评估。专家组认为没有足够的具体研究解决的安全使用瓜尔胶(412 E)在食品类别13.1.5.1和13.1.5.2都是可用的。因此,委员会得出结论,可用的数据不允许足够的瓜尔胶的安全评估(412 E)在婴幼儿食用这些食物特殊医疗用途。
