This book was released on 2006 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contain toxicological monographs prepared at the 66th meeting of the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) which met in Rome, Italy in February 2006. These summarise data on two veterinary drug residues evaluated by the Committee, the antimicrobial agents colistin and erythromycin. For the third antimicrobial agent, tylosin, a toxicological monograph has not been prepared, as no data were submitted, and a brief review of the tocicological information available in the scientific peer-reviewed literature did not allow an evaluation of the compound.

This book was released on 2016-05-18 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report represents the conclusions of a Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee convened to evaluate the safety of various food additives and contaminants and to prepare specifications for identity and purity. The first part of the report contains a brief description of general considerations addressed at the meeting including updates on matters of interest to the work of the Committee. A summary follows of the Committee’s evaluations of technical toxicological and/or dietary exposure data for seven food additives (benzoates; lipase from Fusarium heterosporum expressed in Ogataea polymorpha; magnesium stearate; maltotetraohydrolase from Pseudomonas stutzeri expressed in Bacillus licheniformis; mixed B-glucanase cellulase and xylanase from Rasamsonia emersonii; mixed B-glucanase and xylanase from Disporotrichum dimorphosporum; polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) – polyethylene glycol (PEG) graft copolymer) and two groups of contaminants (non-dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls and pyrrolizidine alkaloids). Specifications for the following food additives were revised or withdrawn: advantame; annatto extracts (solvent-extracted bixin and solvent-extracted norbixin); food additives containing aluminium and/or silicon (aluminium silicate; calcium aluminium silicate; calcium silicate; silicon dioxide amorphous; sodium aluminium silicate); and glycerol ester of gum rosin. Annexed to the report are tables or text summarizing the toxicological and dietary exposure information and information on specifications as well as the Committee’s recommendations on the food additives and contaminants considered at this meeting.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document has been developed by FAO and WHO following a request from the Thirty-fifth Session of the Codex Committee on Food Hygiene (CCFH) for guidance on hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) in small and less-developed businesses (SLDBs), to address obstacles, identified by member countries, facing the small food business sector. It provides a historical background and a summary of the work of the Codex Alimentarius Commission on HACCP. It identifies the challenges facing small food businesses in the application of HACCP, outlines the steps for the development of a HACCP strategy and describes a number of strategic activities based on the collective experience of experts. Wherever possible, examples of national approaches are provided.--Publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A food additive is defined as a substance not normally consumed as a food in itself and not normally used as a characteristic ingredient of food whether or not it has nutritive value. Food additives are natural or manufactured substances, which are added to food to restore colors lost during processing. They provide sweetness, prevent deterioration during storage and guard against food poisoning (preservatives). This book provides a review of traditional and non-traditional food preservation approaches and ingredients used as food additives. It also provides detailed knowledge for the evaluation of the agro-industrial wastes based on their great potential for the production of industrially relevant food additives. Furthermore the assessment of potential reproductive and developmental toxicity perspectives of some newly synthesized food additives on market has been covered. Finally, the identification of the areas relevant for future research has been pointed out indicating that there is more and more information needed to explore the possibility of the implementation of some other materials to be used as food additives.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The manual provides guidance on the application of the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) approach to the prevention and control of mycotoxin contamination of foods and feed. After a brief introduction on the nature of mycotoxins and their effects on human and animal health, the document describes the HACCP system, as defined by the Codex Alimentarius Commission. Six examples (yellow maize kernels, maize-based animal feed, copra cake and meal, commercially produced peanut butter, apple juice and pistachio nuts) illustrate how the HACCP approach can be applied to prevent and control mycotoxin contamination.
Download or read book Joint FAO WHO Expert Consultation on Risk Assessment of Microbiological Hazards in Foods FAO Headquarters Rome 17 21 July 2000 written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2000 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The microbiological safety of food is becoming an increasingly important issue in many countries. A number of factors have contributed to this, including changes in methods of food production and processing, changing consumption patterns, greater consumer awareness of food safety issues and emerging and re-emerging pathogens. Also, the expansion of international trade in food has increased the risk of infectious agents being disseminated from the original point of production to locations thousands of miles away. In addressing this issue at the international level FAO and WHO convened a joint Expert Consultation on Risk Assessment of Microbiological Hazards in Foods from 17 to 21 July 2000 in Rome. The meeting specifically addressed risk assessment of Salmonella spp. in broilers and eggs and Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat foods. This report summarizes its findings and includes advice and guidance on hazard characterization and exposure assessment of these pathogen-commodity combinations for consideration by FAO/WHO Member Countries and the Codex Alimentarius Commission.
