Food Additive
Any substance not normally consumed as a food by itself and not normally used as a typical ingredient of the food, whether or not it has nutritive value, the intentional addition of which to food for a technological (including organoleptic) purpose in the manufacture, processing, preparation, treatment, packing, packaging and transport .
The term does not include contaminants, or substances added to food for maintaining or improving nutritional qualities

Basic requirements of dietary exposure assessment
(1)Concentration of the food additive in food (2) Amount of food consumed (3)Average body weight of the population (kg). The general equation for dietary exposure is: Dietary exposure = Σ (Concentration of food additive in food × Food consumption) Body weight (kg)
![Page 9: Exposure Assessment of Food Additives - home | Food and](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012211/61df19c96c1e8e47c25aa831/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Exposure assessment Pre –Regulation Food additive concentration data from manufacturer Post- Regulation Specific foods containing the food additive in the market Actual use levels of the food additives from food manufacturers or food processors Analytical data on the concentrations of the food additive in food may also be used to more realistically estimate the levels of the food additive likely to be found in the diet as consumed Data can be derived from monitoring and surveillance data on food.

Theoretical Maximum Daily Intake
Average per capita daily food consumption
for each foodstuff or food group X legal maximum
use level of the additive established by Codex
standards/FSSAI
![Page 11: Exposure Assessment of Food Additives - home | Food and](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012211/61df19c96c1e8e47c25aa831/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Assumptions for TMDI
(a) All foods in which an additive is permitted contain that additive
(b) Always present at the Maximum Permitted Level
(c) Foods containing the additive are consumed by people
each day of their lives at the average per capita level
(d) the additive does not undergo a decrease in level as a
result of cooking or processing techniques
(e) All foods permitted to contain the additive are ingested
and nothing is discarded.

Estimated Daily Intake
The Estimated Daily Intake (EDI) of a food additive is the amount of an additive ingested by the average consumer of the food based on
a) the actual use of the additive by industry
b) according to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)
c) an approximation as close as possible to the actual use level.

Risk Characterization
An estimate of the likelihood of adverse health effects in human populations as a consequence of the exposure. For threshold acting agents, population risk is characterized by comparison of the ADI (or other measures) with exposure. The likelihood of adverse health effects is notionally zero when exposure is less than the ADI. INS (International Numbering System)

Acceptable Daily Intake
The Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) is an estimate by JECFA of the amount of a food additive,expressed on a body weight basis, that can be ingested daily over a lifetime without appreciable health risk(standard man - 60 Kg) (WHO Environmental Health Criteria document N° 70, Principles for the SafetyAssessment of food Additives and Contaminants in Food, Geneva, 1987). The ADI is expressed in milligrams of the additive per kilogram of body weight.For this purpose, "without appreciable risk" is taken to mean the practical certaintycertainty that injury will not result even after a life-time's exposure (Report of the 1975 JMPR, TRS 592, WHO, 1976).
A group of 700 substances categorized as GRAS ("generally recognized as safe"), which are so classified because of extensive past use without harmful side effects

Acceptable Daily Intake "Not Specified"
A term applicable to a food substance of very low toxicity for which, on the basis of the available data (chemical, biochemical, toxicological, and other), the total dietary intake of the substance, arising from its use at the levels necessary to achieve the desired effect and from its acceptable background levels in food, does not, in the opinion of JECFA, represent a hazard to health.

To conclude
Exposure assessment of food additives is the critical component of risk assessment of food additives Need to identify models to capture the food additive intake Food safety is shared responsibility of all stake holders but the major responsibility lies with food industry in case of food additives
