TITLE 21--FOOD AND DRUGS
CHAPTER I--FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN
SERVICES (CONTINUED)
PART 174 INDIRECT FOOD ADDITIVES: GENERAL--Table of Contents
Sec. 174.6 Threshold of regulation for substances used in food-contact
articles.
Substances used in food-contact articles (e.g., food-packaging or
food-processing equipment) that migrate, or that may be expected to
migrate, into food at negligible levels may be reviewed under Sec.
170.39 of this chapter. The Food and Drug Administration will exempt
substances whose uses it determines meet the criteria in Sec. 170.39 of
this chapter from regulation as food additives and, therefore, a food
additive petition will not be required for the exempted use.
