Abstract

Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the assessment of the application for the renewal of authorisation of naringin as a sensory additive for all animal species. The applicant provided data demonstrating that the additive currently in the market complies with the conditions of authorisation. The FEEDAP Panel confirms that the use of naringin under the current authorised conditions of use is safe for the target species, the consumers and the environment. Naringin does not cause severe irritation or corrosion to eyes, is not irritant to the skin and is not classified as a dermal sensitiser. The FEEDAP Panel cannot conclude on the possible respiratory sensitisation of the additive, due to the lack of data. There was no need for assessing the efficacy of the additive in the context of the renewal of the authorisation.
