The Ninety-seventh report of the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives, Rome, 31 October–9 November 2023. The report represents JECFA evaluation of technical, toxicological and epidemiological data, including the occurrence of and dietary exposure to the food additive titanium dioxide. The report also summaries JECFA assessment of the dietary exposure to three groups of flavouring agents (aliphatic primary alcohols, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, acetals and esters containing additional oxygenated functional groups; linear and branched-chain aliphatic, unsaturated and unconjugated alcohols, aldehydes, acids and related esters; and saturated aliphatic acyclic linear primary alcohols, aldehydes and acids).

The Ninety-sixth meeting of the Joint Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)/World Health Organization (WHO) Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), Geneva, 27 June to 6 July 2023. The report represents JECFA evaluations of technical, toxicological and epidemiological data, including the occurrence of and dietary exposure to the food additive aspartame. The report also summaries JECFA assessment of the dietary exposure to two groups of flavouring agents (esters of aliphatic acyclic primary alcohols with branched-chain aliphatic acyclic acids and hydroxy- and alkoxy-substituted benzyl derivatives) and the revised specifications for eight flavouring agents.

This report presents the conclusions of a Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), which met virtually from 7 to 18 June 2021. The toxicological and dietary exposure monographs in this volume summarize data on the safety of and dietary exposure to specific food additives: benzoic acid, its salts and derivatives; collagenase from Streptomyces violaceoruber expressed in S. violaceoruber; ¦Â-glucanase from Streptomyces violaceoruber expressed in S. violaceoruber; phospholipase A2 from Stretomyces violaceoruber expressed in S. violaceoruber; riboflavin from Ashbya gossypii; and ribonuclease P from Penicillium citrinum.

The Committee assessed the safety of four food additives (butterfly pea flower extract, natamycin A, nisin, and polyglycerol esters of fatty acids) four processing aids (enzymes) and revised the specifications for 10 flavouring agents. The assessments, recommendations and comments by the Committee will be discussed by the Codex Committee on Food Additives to generate recommendations to national authorities on risk-management and risk-mitigation measures to reduce human exposure. WHO will publish detailed monographs in the WHO Food Additives Series with the toxicological and other related information on which the safety assessments of the compounds were based. FAO publishes summaries of the identity and purity of food additives.
