Food Additives Intake Model (faim) Template

چکیده
The purpose of the Food Additives Intake Model (FAIM) template is to provide a screening tool for estimating chronic exposure to food additives. It allows the user to estimate the mean and high level exposure to food additives for different population groups throughout several European countries. According to the ‘Guidance for submission for food additive evaluations’, published on July 2012 on EFSA website (EFSA, 2012), two scenarios can be applied, taking into account: (1) the Maximum Permitted Levels (MPLs) of use as set in the current EU legislation and (2) the levels of use as reported for existing food additives, if available, or as proposed, in the case of new applications. The model also provides information on the food groups contributing to the total mean exposure.
