Indirect Food Additives: Adjuvants, Production Aids, and Sanitizers

Resumen

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the food additive regulations to provide for the safe use of acid-catalyzed condensation reaction products of branched 4-nonylphenol, formaldehyde, and 1-dodecanethiol for use as an antioxidant in adhesives, pressure- sensitive adhesives, and repeated-use rubber articles intended for use in contact with food. This action is in response to a petition filed by Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.
