食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊   據(jù)美國食品安全新聞網(wǎng)消息，美國阿肯色大學(xué)法學(xué)專家馬蘭達(dá).懷特（Maranda White）撰文稱，美國食品安全現(xiàn)代化法案（FSMA）的實(shí)施有助改變?yōu)E用添加劑的狀況。

    美國現(xiàn)在的食品添加劑法規(guī)建立在1958年美國國會修訂的《聯(lián)邦食品、藥品和化妝品法案》，該法規(guī)要求所有的新增食品添加劑都必須經(jīng)過FDA專家的評估和批準(zhǔn)，除非該添加劑已被證明“一般公認(rèn)安全（Generally Recognized as Safe，GRAS）”。

    部分原文報道如下：

    In 1958, Congress amended the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act （FDCA） to establish new regulatory and procedural requirements for the use of novel food additives.

    FDA has called FSMA “the most sweeping reform of our food safety laws in more than 70 years.” Under the Act, FDA has the authority to compel food facilities to inform FDA of GRAS determinations and provide proof that generally recognized as safe means just that. FDA should seize this opportunity to inform itself and consumers about the true state of our food supply and finally capture the “Great White Whale” of food safety.
