The specifications in this document provide information on the identity and purity of additives used directly in foods or in food production. The three main objectives of these specifications are to identify the additive that has been subjected to testing for safety, to ensure that the additive is of the quality required for use in food or in processing, and to reflect and encourage good manufacturing practice.

This document contains food additive specification monographs, analytical methods, and other information prepared at the eighty-ninth meeting of the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), which was held virtually on an online platform from 1 – 12 June 2020, due to travel restrictions and lock-downs caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Committee evaluated the safety of six food additives, conducted an exposure assessment for one group of food additives, and revised the specifications for three other food additives (including one group). The Committee also evaluated the safety of two groups of flavoring agents and revised the specifications for 12 flavoring agents. Tentative specifications were prepared for three, as the safety evaluations were not completed.
