Recently, Canada issued a circular (G/SPS/N/CAN/636), and the Health Department of Canada issued an information consultation document on the recommendation of allowing the food additive trisodium phosphate to be used in some standardized meat, poultry, seafood and freshwater products and non-standard food. The Ministry of Health of Canada has received a proposal to legally approve the use of trisodium phosphate for standardized meat, poultry meat, seafood and freshwater products and non-standard food, where the use of sodium pyrophosphate (sodium tetraphosphate) and/or acid sodium pyrophosphate has been approved. Trisodium phosphate is a phosphate with different technical functions, which can replace other phosphate products that have been allowed to use. According to the calculation of disodium phosphate, the proposed maximum use standard of trisodium phosphate in standardized meat, poultry, marine and freshwater animal products accounts for 0.5% of the total amount of phosphate added. When trisodium phosphate is used alone or in combination with other phosphates, the highest use standard applies to trisodium phosphate. The use standard of non-standard food is intended to be a use standard in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). These proposed maximum use standards are the same as other statutory use standards currently approved for phosphate in these foods!
Health Canada completed a safety assessment of the information related to trisodium phosphate in support of the proposed use of food additives, and determined that there were no health or safety issues related to the prescribed use. The Ministry of Health has determined that the applicant meets the requirements of the food additive proposal outlined in Section B.16.002 of the Food and Drug Regulations. Therefore, the Ministry of Health of Canada intends to permit the legal use of trisodium phosphate as described in the technical consultation document.
At present, the circular is in the process of soliciting opinions.
