Color Additive Status List

Disclaimer FDA offers this list as a service to the Field Offices. Inclusion of a substance in the Food Additive Status list does not necessarily represent its legal regulatory status. The regulations for food additives in 21 Code of Federal Regulations need to be consulted.

NOTE: The Food Additives Status List is provided only as a quick look-up on the use limitations for a food additive. It is possible that mistakes or omissions could have occurred. Additionally, there may be cases where the agency has offered interpretations concerning specific provisions of the regulations. For example, in the case of boiler water additives or other minor ingredients, processing aids, or indirect additives, FDA has not objected, in certain cases, to the substitution of ammonium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, or sodium salts for each other when only one is listed in a regulation. The Food Additive Status list is updated at regular intervals, so it may not reflect the latest information. For all these reasons, take care before advising a firm that a use of a particular food additive is prohibited or otherwise limited. Read the actual regulation. If there are any doubts or if a particular situation is unclear, you or your supervisor should consult with the CFSAN, Office of Food Additive Safety (HFS-200) at (240) 402-1200 , or the Division of Petition Review (HFS-265) at (240) 402-1264 , or the Division of Food Contact Substance Notification Review HFS-275 at (240) 402-1162 , or the Division of Biotechnology and GRAS Notice Review HFS-255 at (240) 402-1221 .

FOREWORD

This Food Additives Status List, formerly called Appendix A of the Investigations Operations Manual (IOM),  organizes additives found in many parts of 21 CFR into one alphabetized list. Additives included are those specified in the regulations promulgated under the FD&C Act, under Sections 401 (Food Standards), and 409 (Food Additives). The Food Additives Status List includes short notations on use limitations for each additive. For complete information on its use limitations, refer to the specific regulation for each substance. New regulations and revisions are published in current issues of the Federal Register as promulgated. Also refer to the Food Ingredient and Packaging inventories in the Foods section of the FDA  web site to review several FDA databases of additive categories. For example, Substances Added to Food is a helpful reference within the limitations described at the beginning of the database.

NOTE: Pesticide chemicals from 40 CFR 180 for which EPA has set tolerances in food that are enforced by FDA have been removed from this list.

The Food Additive Status List omits certain categories of additives. Here are the omissions:

  1. Obviously safe substances not cited in a regulation as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS). You may find such substances in the GRAS Notice Inventory on the FDA web site. This site contains notices received from companies since 1998, and FDA's response.
  2. Synthetic flavoring substances in 21 CFR 172.515. The CFR does not contain a complete list of permissible flavorings. Certain trade groups such as the Flavor Extract Manufacturers Association have established expert panels to evaluate and make determinations on the GRAS status of their products. If you need help in determining the acceptability of a flavoring after consulting 21 CFR 172.515, contact CFSAN Office of Food Additive Safety (HFS-200) at (240) 402-1200 .
  3. Those pending administrative determination.
  4. Substances granted prior sanction for specific use prior to enactment of the Food Additives Amendment. For additional information on these substances, contact the CFSAN Office of Food Additive Safety (HFS-200) at (240) 402-1200 .
  5. Indirect food additives, 21 CFR Parts 175, 176, 177, & Part 178 (except that sanitizing agents for food processing equipment as listed in 178.1010 are included in the Food Additives list.) Be aware that as a result of the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 and Antimicrobial Regulation Technical Corrections Act of 1998, EPA now has jurisdiction over sanitizing solutions applied to permanent or semi-permanent food contact surfaces, other than food packaging. To look up indirect food additives in Parts 175, 176, 177 and 178 go to FDA's Indirect Additives Used in Food Contact Substances. Use it to locate the regulation in which its use is fully described. In 1997, FDA implemented a new Food Contact Notification program for certain food contact substances. These notifications are effective only for the manufacturer or supplier identified in the notification. A list of Effective Food Contact Substance (FCS) Notifications is available on the FDA web site.
  6. Color additives, 21 CFR Parts 70, 71, 73, 74, 80 & 82. Go to the Color Additives Status List.

Please send corrections or additions to the list to Harold Woodall, FDA/CFSAN Office of Food Additive Safety (HFS-206), 5100 Paint Branch Parkway, College Park, Maryland 20740 or e-mail them to harold.woodall@fda.hhs.gov.

BAN Substances banned prior to the Food Additives Amendment (FAA) because of toxicity. These substances are bolded and italicized. FS Substances permitted as optional ingredient in a standardized food
GRAS Generally recognized as safe. Substances in this category are by definition, under Sec. 201(s) of the FD&C Act, not food additives. Most GRAS substances have no quantitative restrictions as to use, although their use must conform to good manufacturing practices. Some GRAS substances, such as sodium benzoate, do have a quantitative limit for use in foods. GRAS/FS Substances generally recognized as safe in foods but limited in standardized foods where the standard provides for its use.
ILL Substances used or proposed for use as direct additives in foods without required clearance under the FAA. Their use is illegal. These substances are bolded and italicized. PD Substances for which a petition has been filed but denied because of lack of proof of safety. Substances in this category are illegal and may not be used in foods.
PS Substances for which prior sanction has been granted by FDA for specific uses. There are a number of substances in this category not listed herein because they have not been published in the FEDERAL REGISTER. REG Food additives for which a petition has been filed and a regulation issued.
REG/FS Food additives regulated under the FAA and included in a specific food standard.
