EAFUS Inventory Replaced by “Substances Added to Food” Inventory - OFW Law
CFSAN/FDA’s Office of Food Additive Safety (OFAS) has replaced the original Everything Added to Food in the U. S. (EAFUS) inventory with an upgraded version – the Substances Added to Food inventory. This new inventory -- which contains about 4000 substances and is searchable -- includes information on:
Generally recognized as safe (GRAS) substances in
21 C.F.R. Parts 182 and 184
and prohibited substances in 21 C.F.R. Part 189
Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association (FEMA) GRAS substances
and some substances no longer FEMA GRAS
Food additives in:
21 C.F.R. Parts 172 and 173
Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) specifications
Color additives in
21 C.F.R. Parts 73 and 74
and delisted color additives in 21 C.F.R. §§ 81.10 and 81.30
Prior-sanctioned substances in
21 C.F.R. Part 181
The new inventory includes direct links to any applicable regulations for a substance, as well as additional information, such as other known names, common uses, and information by other entities (when available).
The Substances Added to Food inventory is only a partial list of food substances. However, a new search function that allows users to search multiple, related food ingredient and packaging inventories also is included. It may be searched along with, for example:
Substances listed in the inventory of GRAS Notices,
Indirect Additives Used in Food Contact Substances, and other
Food Ingredient and Packaging Inventories.
Bear in mind that inclusion in the Substances Added to Food inventory of information from non-FDA entities does not indicate an FDA approval or evaluation of its permissible uses.
