Food Chemicals Codex Revisions and Commentary

Revision proposals published in Food Chemicals Codex (FCC) Forum often elicit public comments that are forwarded to the Food Ingredients Expert Committee for review and response. In accordance with the Rules and Procedures of the 2005-2010 Council of Experts, revision proposals can advance to publication with minor modifications, as needed, without requiring further public review. In such cases a summary of comments is published on the USP Web site. Click on the text below to see an explanation of the changes that will appear in a particular edition.
