This volume contains monographs prepared at the seventy-sixth meeting of
the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), which met
in Geneva, Switzerland, from 5 to 14 June 2012.
The toxicological monographs in this volume summarize the safety data on
four food additives (other than flavoring agents). Monographs on 12
groups of related flavoring agents evaluated by the Procedure for the
Safety Evaluation of Flavouring Agents are also included.
This volume and others in the WHO Food Additives series contain
information that is useful to those who produce and use food additives
and veterinary drugs and those involved with controlling contaminants in
food, government and food regulatory officers, industrial testing
laboratories, toxicological laboratories and universities.
