Food Additives Permitted for Direct Addition to Food for Human Consumption; Change in Specifications for Gum or Wood Rosin Derivatives in Chewing Gum Base; Correction
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration, HHS.
ACTION:
Final rule; correction.
SUMMARY:
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register of July 23, 2001 (66 FR 38152). The document amended the food additive regulations in § 172.615 (21 CFR 172.615) to provide for their safe use as plasticizing materials (softeners) in chewing gum base. A word in the specification for glycerol ester of gum rosin was inadvertently misspelled. This document corrects that error.
EFFECTIVE DATE:
July 23, 2001.
