Resumen

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the food additive regulations to provide for the safe use of methyltin-2- mercaptoethyloleate sulfide used alone or in combination with several optional substances as a heat stabilizer for use in rigid poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and rigid vinyl chloride copolymers intended for use in the manufacture of pipes and pipe fittings that will contact water in food processing plants. This action is in response to a petition filed by Morton International, Inc.
