The above agencies include: Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), France AN-SES (National Food, Environmental and Labor Hygiene Agency), Australia New Zealand Food and Standards Administration (FSANZ), the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and recent The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA).
