2 AGENDA 1. Introduction 2. Risk Assessment for Food Additive 3. Current Regulation for Food Additive Health Minister Regulation No. 033 Year 2012 on Food Additives 4. Sweeteners in Indonesia 2

3 1 Introduction 3

4 Food Shall mean: Anything originating from biological of agricultural products, farming, forestry, fisheries, livestock, and water sources either processed and unprocessed, designated as food or beverages as human consumption. Include: Food raw materials Food additives Other material used in the process of preparing, processing, and/or making food or beverages. (Law No.18, 2012 on Food)

5 Food science and technology, Change in life style, Food Innovation Growth of the food industry Type of food VARIES Food additives play an important and essensial role in the food production 5

7 2 Risk Assessment for Food Additive 7

8 How Risk Assessment (RA) In Indonesia? as institutions which provide permit the use of food additive- RA is needed 8

9 Risk Analysis(Codex Alimentarius Commission) 1. Hazard identification 2. Hazard characterization 3. Exposure assessment 4. Risk characterization Science Based Policy Based Interactive Exchange of Information and Opinions

10 How Risk Assessment (RA) In Indonesia? JECFA Codex By experts from scientific institutions including universities Regulation from other countries Exposure assessment: Existing data (Directorate of Food Safety Assessment, Directorate of Food Inspection and Certification, NADFC) National Consumption Survey Controling capabilities---laboratorium Is it Comprehensive yet??? 10

11 Exposure Assessment to ADI/MTDI/PTWI Exposure perday(%) = The maximum level (mg/kg) x consumption (kg) X 100% ADI (mg/kg) x BW (kg) Acceptable daily intake (ADI) is the amount of a food additive expressed on a body weight basis that can be ingested daily over a lifetime without appreciable risk. (standard human = 60 kg). The ADI is listed in units of mg per kg of body weight. Maximum Tolerable Daily Intake (MTDI) is the amount of a substances expressed on body weight basis that can be ingested in a day without appreciable risk. Provisional Tolerable Weekly Intake (PTWI) is the amount temporary of a substances expressed on body weight basis that can be ingested in a week without appreciable risk.

12 Case study Maximum Level Sweetener X Indonesia Codex Other Countries Country 1 Country 2 Country 3 a b x y z Why Indonesia different??? Touching manager (risk manager) Justification: - Exposure - Different culture 12

13 Consideration to Established Functional Classes for Food Additives Codex Class Names and The International Numbering System for Food Additives CAC/GL Amandment 2011 regulated 27 functional classes Functional classess for food additives based on technological function in food. Food additives approved by CAC viewed from the safety aspect to human/consumer health.
