Comments:
Given the deficiencies in the toxicological database, including missing toxicological studies (e.g. long-term toxicity, carcinogenicity, reproductive toxicity and developmental toxicity studies), the inadequate characterization of the test material and limited reporting of the available studies, the Committee was unable to evaluate gardenia yellow proposed for use as a food colour.
