Voluntary Consensus Standards for Color Additives from Natural Sources

Call for Volunteers: Working Group for Color Additives from Natural Sources

About AOAC Working Group for Color Additives from Natural Colors:

AOAC is seeking volunteer subject matter experts to serve on a newly established working group, composed of four contaminant-specific subgroups, to develop and adopt voluntary consensus standards for color additives from natural sources. Stakeholder-approved standards will be used in the development of Official Methods of Analysis for (1) microbial contaminants, (2) residual solvents, (3) pesticide residues, and (4) heavy metal contaminants in naturally derived color additives. Each sub-group will develop and adopt one or more Standard Method Performance Requirements, SMPRs® based on priorities established by the project’s Advisory Panel.

The Natural Colors Project will be guided by an advisory panel (AP) of funding organizations to confirm priorities and working group objectives. This panel will meet quarterly to review progress and consider additional objectives.

If you are interested in participating and being a member of the working group, please complete this form.
