ANNEX - 1

Further Provisions Applicable When Checking Compliance with the Migration Limits

a) General provisions

1) When comparing the results of the migration tests specified in “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Basic Rules for the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs”, the specific gravity of all the simulants should conventionally be assumed to 1. Milligrams of substance(s) released per litre of simulant will thus correspond numerically to milligrams of substance(s) released per kilogram of stimulant and, taking into account the provisions laid down in “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Basic Rules for the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs” to the milligrams of substance(s) released per kilogram of foodstuff.

2) In migration tests, the testing conditions and the actual conditions differ from each other, and the following formula should be applied in order to correct the testing conditions according to the actual conditions:

2005/31

Where;

M     :   is the migration in (mg/kg)
m     :   is the mass in mg of substance released by the sample as determined by the migration test
a1    :   is the surface area in dm² of the sample in contact with the foodstuff or simulant during the migration test;
a2    :   is the surface area in dm² of the material or article in real conditions of use;
q     :   is the quantity in grams of foodstuff in contact with the material or article in real conditions of use.

3) The determination of migration is carried out on the material or article or, if that is impracticable, using either specimens taken from the material or article or, where appropriate, specimens representative of this material or article. The sample shall be placed in contact with the foodstuff or simulant in a manner representing the contact conditions in actual use. For this purpose, the test shall be performed in such a way that only those parts of the sample intended to come into contact with foodstuffs in actual use will be in contact with the foodstuff or simulant. This condition is particularly important in the case of materials and articles comprising several layers, for closures, etc. The migration testing of caps, gaskets, stoppers or similar devices for sealing must be carried out on these articles by applying them to the containers for which they are intended in a manner which corresponds to the conditions of closing in normal or foreseeable use. It shall in all cases be permissible to demonstrate compliance with migration limits by the use of a more severe test.

4) The sample of the material or article is placed in contact with the foodstuff or appropriate simulant for a period and at a temperature which are chosen by reference to the contact conditions in actual use in accordance with the rules laid down in “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Basic Rules for the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs” and “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on the List of Simulants Used in the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs”. At the end of the prescribed time, the analytical determination of the specific migration of one or more substances and/or the overall migration of the substances released by the sample is carried out on the foodstuff or simulant.

5) Where a material or article is intended to come into repeated contact with foodstuffs, the migration test(s) shall be carried out three times on a single sample in accordance with the conditions laid down in “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Basic Rules for the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs” using another sample of the food or simulant(s) on each occasion. Its compliance shall be checked on the basis of the level of the migration found in the third test. However, if there is conclusive proof that the level of the migration does not increase in the second and third tests and if the migration limit(s) is (are) not exceeded on the first test, no further test is necessary.

b) Special provisions relating to overall migration

1) If the aqueous simulants specified “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Basic Rules for the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs” and “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on the List of Simulants Used in the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs” are used, the analytical determination of the total quantity of substances released by the sample may be carried out by evaporation of the simulant and weighing of the residue. If rectified olive oil or any of its substitutes is used, the procedure given below may be followed:

The sample of the material or article is weighed before and after contact with the simulant. The simulant absorbed by the sample is extracted and determined quantitatively. The quantity of simulant found is subtracted from the weight of the sample measured after contact with the simulant. The difference between the initial and corrected final weights represents the overall migration of the sample examined.

Where a material or article is intended to come into repeated contact with foodstuffs, and where it is technically impossible to carry out the test described in paragraph 5 of Article (a) of Annex 1, modifications to that test are acceptable, provided that they enable the level of migration occurring during the third test to be determined. One of these possible modifications is described below:

The test is carried out on three identical samples of the material or article. One of these shall be subjected to the appropriate test and the overall migration determined (M1). The second and third samples shall be subjected to the same conditions of temperature but the period of contact shall be two and three times that specified and overall migration determined in each case (M2 and M3, respectively). The material or article shall be deemed to be in compliance provided that either M1 or M3 - M2 do not exceed the overall migration limit.

2) A material or article that exceeds the overall migration limit by an amount not greater than the analytical tolerance mentioned below should therefore be deemed to be in compliance with this Communiqué.

The following analytical tolerances have been observed:

- 20 mg/kg or 3 mg/dm2 in migration tests using rectified olive oil or substitutes,

- 12 mg/kg or 2 mg/dm2 in migration tests using the other simulants referred to in “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Basic Rules for the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs” and “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on the List of Simulants Used in the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs”.

3) Without prejudice to the provisions laid down in Annex 2 (c) of “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Basic Rules for the Migration Test of Substances of Plastic Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs”, migration tests using rectified olive oil or substitutes shall not be carried out to check compliance with the overall migration limit in cases where there is conclusive proof that the specified analytical method is inadequate from a technical standpoint.

In any such case, for substances exempt from specific migration limits or other restrictions in the list provided in Annex II, a generic specific migration limit of 60 mg/kg or 10 mg/dm2, according to the case, is applied. However, the sum of all specific migrations determined shall not exceed the overall migration limit.

ANNEX - 3

Incomplete List of Additives Which May Be Used in the Manufacture of Plastic

Materials and Articles

General Introduction

1) This Annex contains the list of:

(a) Substances which are incorporated into plastics to achieve a technical effect in the finished product. They are intended to be present in the finished articles;

(b) Substances used to provide a suitable medium in which polymerization occurs.

For the purposes of this Annex, substances laid down in paragraphs (a) and (b) are called additives.

For the purposes of this Annex, polymeric additives means any polymers and/or protopolymers and/or oligomers which can be added to plastics in order to obtain technical specifications but cannot be used in the absence of other polymers that are structural components of final articles or materials. Furthermore, they also include substances, which can be added to the medium where polymerization occurs.

The list does not include the substances, colorants and solvents, which directly influence the formation of polymers.

2) The list does not include the salts (including double salts and acid salts) of aluminium, ammonium, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc of the authorised acids, phenols or alcohols which are also authorised. However, names containing “...acid(s), salts” appear in the lists if the corresponding free acid(s) is (are) not mentioned. In such cases the meaning of the term ‘salts’ is ‘salts of aluminium ammonium, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc”.

3) The list does not include the following substances although they may be present:

(a) Substances which could be present in the finished product such as:

- Impurities in the substances used,

- Reaction intermediates,

- Decomposition products;

(b) Mixtures of the authorised substances.

The materials and articles which contain the substances indicated in (a) and (b) shall comply with the requirements laid down in Article 4 of “Turkish Food Codex Communiqué on Articles and Materials in Contact with Foodstuffs”.

4) Substances shall be of good technical quality as regards the purity criteria.

5) The list contains the following information:

Column 1 (Ref. No): the EEC packaging material reference number of the substances on the list,

Column 2 (CAS No): the CAS (Chemical Abstracts Service) registry number,

Column 3 (Name): the chemical name,

Column 4 (Restrictions and/or specifications). These may include:

SML : specific migration limit,

QM : maximum permitted quantity of the substance in the finished material or article,

QMA : maximum permitted quantity of the substance in the finished material or article expressed as mg per 6 dm² of the surface in contact with foodstuffs (),

- Any other restriction specifically laid down,

- Any type of specification related to the substance or polymer.

6) If a substance appearing on the list as an individual compound is also covered by a generic term, the restrictions applying to this substance shall be those indicated for the individual compound.

7) Where there is any inconsistency between the CAS number and the chemical name, the chemical name shall take precedence over the CAS number. If there is an inconsistency between the CAS number reported in EINECS and the CAS registry, the CAS number in the CAS registry shall apply.

18888 3-Hydroxybutanoic acid-3-hydroxypentanoic acid, copolymer

Definition: The copolymers are produced by the controlled fermentation of Alcaligenes eutrophus cepa using mixtures of glucose and propanoic acid as carbon sources. The organism used has not been
genetically engineered and has been derived from a single wild-type organism Alcaligenes eutrophus
strain HI6 NCIMB 10442. Master stocks of the organism are stored as freeze-dried ampoules. A
submaster/working stock is prepared from the master stock and stored in liquid nitrogen and used
to prepare inocula for the fermenter. Fermenter samples will be examined daily both microscopically and for any changes in colonial morphology on a variety of agars at different temperatures.
The copolymers are isolated from heat treatment bacteria by controlled digestion of the other cellular components, washing and drying. These copolymers are normally offered as formulated, melt formed granules containing additives such as nucleating agents, plasticisers, fillers, stabilisers and pigments which all conform to the general and individual specifications.
