Lessons from Experiences -- References Summary This book concerns the EU legal and regulatory framework relating to Chemicals in Food. It is divided in two parts: the first section offers an introduction to the European General Food Law with an analysis of EFSA (the European Food Safety Authority) and a description of main features of food safety-related regulations. The second part focusses on the legislation finding application concerning chemicals in food from different viewpoints, namely: - the REACH regulation; - the enzyme, flavorings and additive regulatory framework; - the matter of contamination and veterinary drugs; - the use of Food contact materials. The final chapter addresses several considerations relating to chemical hazards and crisis management, highlighting shortcomings and lessons from experience Analysis recht law Europa Europe chemie chemistry voedselwetenschappen food sciences voeding nutrition informatieverwerking information processing Chemistry (General) Chemie (algemeen) Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Online resource; title from PDF title page (Ebsco, viewed September 22, 2014) Subject Food -- European Union countries -- Safety measures Food supply -- Government policy -- European Union countries Food -- Composition.
