Today the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has received the data of the new study on the sweetener aspartame from the Ramazzini Foundation in Bologna. EFSA’s Scientific Panel on Food Additives, Flavourings, Processing Aids and Materials in Contact with Food (AFC) will begin its evaluation of the dossier of the new aspartame study as a matter of high priority. Furthermore, it will consider the data from the new study in the context of the previous extensive safety data available. It could take three to five months before the AFC Panel can finalise its work and come to a conclusion.
