  • “Inert” Ingredients Used in Organic Production
    “Inert” Ingredients Used in Organic Production Terry Shistar, PhD A Beyond Pesticides Report he relatively few registered pesticides allowed in organic production are contained in product formulations with so-called “inert” ingredients that are not disclosed on the T product label. The “inerts” make up the powder, liquid, granule, or spreader/sticking agents in pesticide formulations. The “inerts” are typically included in products with natural or synthetic active pesticide ingredients recommended by the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB) and listed by the National Organic Program (NOP) on the National List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances. Any of the pesticides that meet the standards of public health and environmental protection and organic compatibility in the Organic Foods Production Act (OFPA) may contain “inert” ingredients. Because the standards of OFPA are different from those used by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate pesticides and given changes in how the agency categorizes inerts, the NOSB has adopted a series of recommendations since 2010 that established a substance review process as part of the sunset review. NOP has not followed through on the Board’s recommendations and, as a result, there are numerous materials in use that have not been subject to OFPA criteria. This report (i) traces the history of the legal requirements for review by the NOSB, (ii) identifies the universe of toxic and nontoxic materials that make of the category of “inerts” used in products permitted in organic production, and (iii) suggests a path forward to ensure NOSB compliance with OFPA and uphold the integrity of the USDA organic label.

  • EAFUS: a Food Additive Database
    U. S. Food and Drug Administration Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition Office of Premarket Approval EAFUS: A Food Additive Database This is an informational database maintained by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN) under an ongoing program known as the Priority-based Assessment of Food Additives (PAFA). It contains administrative, chemical and toxicological information on over 2000 substances directly added to food, including substances regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as direct, "secondary" direct, and color additives, and Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) and prior-sanctioned substances. In addition, the database contains only administrative and chemical information on less than 1000 such substances. The more than 3000 total substances together comprise an inventory often referred to as "Everything" Added to Food in the United States (EAFUS). This list of substances contains ingredients added directly to food that FDA has either approved as food additives or listed or affirmed as GRAS. Nevertheless, it contains only a partial list of all food ingredients that may in fact be lawfully added to food, because under federal law some ingredients may be added to food under a GRAS determination made independently from the FDA. The list contains many, but not all, of the substances subject to independent GRAS determinations. The list below is an alphabetical inventory representing only five of 196 fields in FDA/CFSAN's PAFA database. To obtain the entire database, including abstractions of over 7,000 toxicology studies performed on substances added to food as well as a search engine to locate desired information, order Food Additives: Toxicology, Regulation, and Properties, available in CD-ROM format from CRC Press.

The compounds used for the anal;yses were dlsodlum dlhydrogen liypophosphate hexaliydra.te which was prepared by the method of Lelnlnger and Chulskl,^ reagent grade phosphorous acid, and purified sodium hypophosphlte. The compositions of the phosphorous acid end sodium hypophosphlte were established by a gravimetric procedure In which the compounds were oxidized to orthophosphate by repeated evaporations with aqua, regia, and the orthophosphate converted to mag­ nesium pyrophosphate. iiypophosphate , phosphite, and hypophosphlte were quantitatively oxidized to phosphate by an excess of standard potassium dlchromate In 12 normal sulfuric acid at the temperature of a. boiling water bath.
