The Authority also concluded that ginger essential oil, ginger oleoresin and ginger tincture from Zingiber officinale Roscoe should be considered as irritants to skin and eyes and the respiratory tract and as skin sensitisers. Therefore, the Commission considers that appropriate protective measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on human health, in particular as regards the users of the additive. |

Therefore, the Commission considers that appropriate protective measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on human health, in particular as regards the users of the additive.

| (7) | The Authority concluded, that ginger essential oil, ginger oleoresin and ginger tincture from Zingiber officinale Roscoe are recognised to flavour food and their function in feed would be essentially the same as that in food, therefore, no further demonstration of efficacy is considered necessary. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the methods of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
