B. CRITERIA FOR AMENDMENTS OF THE ADVISORY LIST OF MINERAL
SALTS FOR USE IN FOODS FOR INFANTS AND CHILDREN
(i) Mineral salts may be added to the list only if:
(a) they are shown to provide technological and/or nutritional improvements;
(b) the anion of the salt (or the acids from which the anion is derived) is an
approved additive and its use would not exceed the ADI;
(c) it is demonstrated by appropriate studies in animals and/or infants that
the mineral element is biologically available from the salt;
(d) the purity requirements for the mineral salt are established in an
internationally recognized specification.
(ii) Mineral salts shall be deleted from the list if they are found no longer to meet
the above criteria or if there is no evidence of their continued commercial
application.
