Dear All 

 

i am looking of acceptable limits for allergen as reference for Allergen validation , hence if any one have defined limits as per Codex or FDA/ USFDA, EU/ FSSAI or any other regulatory i.e 

 for Sulphites   concentration of more than 10 ppm is allergenic limit , hence i need reference for below : 

 

Celery,

Cereals containing gluten,

Crustaceans,

Eggs,

Fish,

Lupin,

Milk,

Mustard,

Peanuts,

Sesame,

Soybeans

Tree nuts :

The FDA does not place limits on allergens.  The only thing you can do is show present or not present, or detectable/not detectable.

Hi Sunil,

 

I think you will find some useful information for some of the allergens in Joint FAO/WHO Expert Consultation on Risk Assessment of Food Allergens.

 

See Risk assessment of food allergens: part 1 - 4: review and validation of Codex alimentarius priority allergen list through risk assessment

 

Risk assessment of food allergens: part 5: review and establish threshold levels for specific tree nuts (‎Brazil nut, macadamia nut or Queensland nut, pine nut)‎, soy, celery, lupin, mustard, buckwheat, and oats: meeting report

See Chapter 4 Results - Table 1 Consensus Reference Dose (Rfd) Recommendations snd Potential “Values For Risk Management”

 

Kind regards,

 

Tony
