The aforesaid indexes mean the authorization to use food additives.

European Community has an analogous Commission that is referred to with the letter “E” (which stands for Europe). State Committee on Epidemiological Survey of Russia is authorized institution entitled to establish the extent of the use of food additives and the list of them for the Russian Federation. The present information must be taking into consideration and serves as guidance.
