美國FDA再次就果蔬汁作為食品著色劑行業(yè)指南草案征求意見

 

    新指南草案完成時，將批準(zhǔn)果蔬汁按照現(xiàn)有許可作為食品著色劑使用，而無需按照著色劑申請程序進行上市前審查與許可。相關(guān)機構(gòu)可于2017年3月1日開始提交意見。按照規(guī)定，使用著色劑需經(jīng)FDA批準(zhǔn)，且需按照FDA條例規(guī)定的使用方式、說明與限制條件進行使用。果蔬汁作為著色劑僅限于一定條件下的特定果蔬汁。

 

    部分原文報道如下：

 

    In response to questions from food manufacturers, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has issued draft guidance to clarify when juices from fruits and vegetables may be used as color additives for foods without additional premarket review and approval from the agency under its color additive petition process.

 

    Color additives must be approved for use by the FDA and must be used only in compliance with the approved uses, specifications, and restrictions set out in FDA regulations. The authorization for the use of fruit and vegetable （21 CFR 73.250 and 21 CFR 73.260, respectively） as color additives in food are limited to the juice from certain fruit and vegetables and under certain conditions.
