EU Directive No 95/2/EC:
According to Annex I of this directive E 471 = Mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids is listed as "FOOD ADDITIVES GENERALLY PERMITTED FOR USE IN FOODSTUFFS NOT REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 2 (3)". Substances on this list may be added to all foodstuffs with the exception of those referred to in Article 2 (3) following the quantum satis principle.
According to Annex II of this directive (FOODSTUFFS IN WHICH A LIMITED NUMBER OF ADDITIVES OF ANNEX I MAY BE USED) the maximum level of E 471 in non-emulsified oils and fats of animal or vegetable origin (except virgin oils and olive oils)
is 10 g/L.
According to Annex VI of this directive ( FOOD ADDITIVES PERMITTED IN FOODS FOR INFANTS AND YOUNG CHILDREN) the maximum level for the use of E 471 as "FOOD ADDITIVES PERMITTED IN INFANT FORMULAE FOR INFANTS IN GOOD HEALTH" is 4g/L.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
