PREFACE This publication has been prepared to present an outline of specifications and standards for foods, milk and milk products, food additives, apparatus and container / packages, which are regulated under the Food Sanitation Act and relevant legislations. However, this publication has been produced with a focus mainly on user-friendliness: reference should be made to the original legislation, in order to confirm compliance therewith. Herein presents a summary of the current situation in Japan, as of December 31, 2010, of specifications and standards set out in the “Food Sanitation Act”, “Ordinance for Enforcement of the Food Sanitation Act”, “Ministerial Ordinance Concerning Compositional Standards, etc. for Milk and Milk Products”, relevant legislations (e.g., the Health Promotion Act), notices and announcements issued by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW), as well as legislations issued by the Consumer Affairs Agency (CAA) regarding food labeling. The Food Sanitation Act also applies mutatis mutandis to toys infants may put into their mouths, as well as cleaning agents (detergents) intended for use in washing vegetables, fruits, or tableware. With regards to food labeling, the Consumer Affairs Agency was established on September 1, 2009, to hold overall jurisdiction over food labeling, which was formally under the jurisdiction of the MHLW, as far as regulations for the labeling are concerned. Likewise, with regards to the JAS Law which used to be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, the overall jurisdiction was transferred to the Consumer Affairs Agency as far as the regulations for the labeling are concerned. The Consumer Affairs Agency was to hold overall jurisdiction over food labeling, including measures to be undertaken to ensure compliance with Codex standards. In the context of this publication’s theme, i.e., “specifications and standards for foods, food additives, etc.,” the Ministry of Health and Welfare Notification No. 370, 1959 (latest revision: MHLW Notification No.336, 2010) under the title of “Specifications and Standards for Food and Food Additives etc.” is an important piece of legislation. Therein are set out all the specifications and standards for the following: foods; food additives; apparatus and containers/ packages; toys; and cleaning

    Retention Indices for Frequently Reported Compounds of Plant Essential Oils V. I. Babushok,a) P. J. Linstrom, and I. G. Zenkevichb) National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899, USA (Received 1 August 2011; accepted 27 September 2011; published online 29 November 2011) Gas chromatographic retention indices were evaluated for 505 frequently reported plant essential oil components using a large retention index database. Retention data are presented for three types of commonly used stationary phases: dimethyl silicone (nonpolar), dimethyl sili- cone with 5% phenyl groups (slightly polar), and polyethylene glycol (polar) stationary phases. The evaluations are based on the treatment of multiple measurements with the number of data records ranging from about 5 to 800 per compound. Data analysis was limited to temperature programmed conditions. The data reported include the average and median values of retention index with standard deviations and confidence intervals.

  • Morpholine: a Glazing Agent for Fruits and Vegetables Coating/Waxing (IJSTE/ Volume 2 / Issue 11 / 119) with Glazing Agent
    IJSTE - International Journal of Science Technology & Engineering | Volume 2 | Issue 11 | May 2016 ISSN (online): 2349-784X Morpholine: A Glazing Agent for Fruits and Vegetables Coating/Waxing Rupak Kumar Suman Kapur Research Scholar Senior Professor Department of Biological Sciences Department of Biological Sciences BITS-Pilani, Hyderabad Campus, Hyderabad-500078, India BITS-Pilani, Hyderabad Campus, Hyderabad-500078, India Abstract The saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” probably gives us the impression that apples are the healthiest fruits. But besides the fact that it rhymes, does it really have no adverse effects if we eat a bright red wax coated apple every day? Morpholine (C4H9NO) is a chemical used as emulsifier in the preparation of wax coatings for fruits and vegetables to help them last longer and remain fresh even during prolonged transit. Morpholine oleate is added to wax as it enables spreading wax in water based liquid for use as a protective coating to prevent contamination by pests and diseases. Morpholine alone does not appear to pose a health concern because morpholine itself is neither a carcinogen nor a teratogen and does not cause chronic toxicity. However, it is a precursor for potent carcinogenic nitrosamines. Keywords: Carcinogen, Emulsifier, Morpholine, Teratogen, Wax Coating ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I. INTRODUCTION The practice of fruit/vegetable coating was accepted long before their associated chemistries were understood, and are still practiced till date. The first wax coating was applied to citrus fruits in 12th-13th centuries in China. Today, it has expanded rapidly for retaining quality of a wide variety of foods/vegetables, with total annual revenue exceeding $100 million [1].

They have the general formula : (R-O-R1), where R and R1 may be the same or different. These ethers are very stable, neutral substances. If the radicals belong to the acyclic series, the ether is also acyclic; cyclic radicals give cyclic ethers. The first ether in the acyclic series is gaseous, but others are volatile liquids with a characteristic odour of ether; the higher members are liquids or sometimes solids.

    EXCERPTED FROM: Vitamin and Mineral Safety 3rd Edition (2013) Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) www.crnusa.org Copper Introduction Copper, like iron and some other elements, is a transition metal and performs at least some of its functions through oxidation-reduction reactions. These reactions involve the transition from Cu1+ to Cu2+. There is little or no Cu valence 0 (the metallic form) in biological systems (European Commission, Scientific Committee on Food [EC SCF] 2003). The essential role of copper was recognized after animals that were fed only a whole-milk diet developed an apparent deficiency that did not respond to iron supplementation and was then recognized as a copper deficiency (Turnlund 1999). The similarity of copper-deficiency anemia and iron-deficiency anemia helped scientists to understand copper’s important biological role as the activator of the enzyme ferroxidase I (ceruloplasmin), which is necessary for iron absorption and mobilization from storage in the liver (Linder 1996; Turnlund 1999; EC SCF 2003). Copper activates several enzymes involved in the metabolism of amino acids and their metabolites, energy, and the activated form of oxygen, superoxide. Enzyme activation by copper produces physiologically important effects on connective tissue formation, iron metabolism, central nervous system activity, melanin pigment formation, and protection against oxidative stress. There are two known inborn errors of copper metabolism. Wilson disease results when an inability to excrete copper causes the element to accumulate, and Menkes disease results when an inability to absorb copper creates a copper deficiency (Turnlund 1994). Safety Considerations Copper is relatively nontoxic in most mammals, including humans (Scheinberg and Sternlieb 1976; Linder 1996).

  • Factors Affecting Precipitation of Calcium Lactate from Fermentation Broths and from Aqueous Solution

Lactic acid can be produced either by fermentation or by chemical synthesis but the biotechnological fermentation process has several advantages compared to the other one. However fermentation broth contains a number of impurities which must be removed from the broth in order to achieve more pure lactic acid. Efficiency of recovery is crucial to the economy of the whole process as well since the costs of separation and recovery are responsible for more than half of the entire cost of production. In the traditional procedure, the heated and filtered fermentation broth is concentrated to allow crystallization or precipitation of calcium lactate, followed by addition of sulphuric acid to remove the calcium in form of calcium sulphate. The disadvantage of this procedure is the relatively high solubility of calcium lactate which causes product loss in the crystallization step. Therefore we investigated the effects of four operating parameters of the crystallization/precipitation process from two different fermentation broths and from an aqueous solution.
