Opinion on the re‐evaluation of mono‐ and diglycerides of fatty acids (E 471) as food additive in foods for infants below 16 weeks of age and follow‐up of their re‐evaluation as food additives for uses in foods for all population groups

Abstract Mono‐ and diglycerides of fatty acids (E 471) was re‐evaluated in 2017 by the former EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient sources added to Food (ANS). As a follow‐up to this assessment, the Panel on Food Additives and Flavouring was requested to assess mono‐ and diglycerides of fatty a...
