食品伙伴网讯据欧盟食品安全局(EFSA)消息,应欧盟委员会的要求,3月12日欧盟食品安全局专家组就赤藓糖醇(erythritol)的膳食暴露评估发布了声明。

经过膳食暴露评估,欧盟专家组认为,按照2.5%的使用限量将赤藓糖醇用于饮料时的安全边际系数为1.54,不会对儿童健康构成影响。

部分原文报道如下:

Following a request by the European Commission, the Scientific Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Foods (ANS) carried out an assessment of the dietary exposure to erythritol and concluded on the safety of the proposed use in beverages at a maximum use level of 2.5 %, taking into account additional exposure data provided to the Panel. Anticipated exposure to erythritol from its use as food additive including soft-drinks containing a mean concentration of 2.5 % erythritol would be in the range of 0.004-0.04 g/kg bw/day for toddlers, 0-0.05 g/kg bw/day for children, 0-0.08 g/kg bw/day for adolescents, 0-0.14 g/kg bw/day for adults, and 0-0.01 g/kg bw/day for the elderly.

At high level, exposure estimates would be in the range of 0.29-0.48 g/kg bw/day (toddlers), 0.13-0.76 g/kg bw/day (children), 0.04-0.50 g/kg bw/day (adolescents), 0.05-0.43 g/kg bw/day (adults), and 0.01-0.25 g/kg bw/day (the elderly)。 The main categories contributing to the exposure to erythritol were table-top sweeteners and soft drinks for all age groups except toddlers where soft drinks were the only main contributor. The Panel concluded that based on the new data provided on use levels of erythritol in foods and on the basis of the extension of the authorisation for the use of erythritol to soft drinks at a use level of 2.5 % the Margin of Safety of 1.54 is too low to protect children adequately.
