|
This study was conducted to evaluate the daily intakes of propyl gallate, EDTA (ethylenediamine tetra acetate), and erythorbic acid for average consumers by age group and the intake of high consumers (95th percentile) in Korea. The average intake of EDTA was 1.14 μg/kg·bw/day, and 0.0% of the ADI (acceptable daily intake) established by JECFA (Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives). The 95th percentile intake of EDTA was 141.24 μg/kg·bw/day (5.6% of ADI). The average intake of erythorbic acid was 16.93 μg/kg·bw/day, and the 3-6 year-old group had the highest consumption (58.43 μg/kg·bw/day), which was <1.0% of the ADI established by the EU (European Union). The 95th percentile intake of erythorbic acid was 1,320.31 μg/kg·bw/day and 22.0% of the ADI. In conclusion, daily intakes of propyl gallate, EDTA, and erythorbic acid in Korea were at safe levels in all age groups and also in high consumers.
