美國(guó)FDA發(fā)布果蔬汁作為著色劑的行業(yè)指南草案

 

    按照21 CFR 73.250以及21 CFR 73.260 的要求，果蔬汁可以按照一定條件用作著色劑。果蔬汁類著色劑的被定義為新鮮或可食用的果蔬的汁液，或者干果蔬的水提取物。

 

    美國(guó)FDA收到多個(gè)關(guān)于某種果蔬是否可作為著色劑的咨詢。在行業(yè)指南文件中，美國(guó)FDA列出了可用作著色劑的果蔬品種以及被否決的品種。

 

    部分原文報(bào)道如下：

 

    Fruit juice and vegetable juice can be used under certain conditions as color additives in food under 21 CFR 73.250 （fruit juice） and 21 CFR 73.260 （vegetable juice）。 The color additive “fruit juice” is defined in § 73.250 as the juice expressed from mature varieties of fresh, edible fruits, or by the water infusion of the dried fruit. Similarly, the color additive “vegetable juice” is defined in § 73.260 as the juice expressed from mature varieties of fresh, edible vegetables, or by the water infusion of the dried vegetable.
