Descripción
Steviol glycosides produced by extraction from the leaves of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni were reviewed by the Committee at its fifty-first, sixty-third, sixty-eighth, eighty-second, eighty-fourth,
eighty-seventh and ninety-first meetings. At the sixty-eighth meeting the Committee extended the previously designated temporary ADI of 0–2 mg/kg bw for steviol glycosides, expressed as steviol, pending submission of the results of then-ongoing studies by the end of 2008. The sixty-eighth meeting also removed the ‘tentative’ designation on the specifications for steviol glycosides. At the sixty-ninth meeting, the Committee received additional data and reevaluated steviol glycosides from S. rebaudiana Bertoni. The Committee at that meeting concluded that the data was sufficient to establish an ADI for steviol glycosides of 0–4 mg/kg bw, expressed as steviol equivalents. A specifications monograph for Steviol glycosides was prepared, which needs to be uploaded on teh FAO JECFA Food additives database.
