Evaluations

Evaluation year: 2012
Specs Code: M
Comments: The Committee concluded that the Procedure could not be applied to this group because of unresolved toxicological concerns. Studies that could assist in the safety evaluation include investigations of the influence of the nature and position of furan ring substitutions on metabolism and covalent binding to macromolecules, demonstration of the ring opening and reactivity of the resulting products. Depending on the findings, additional genotoxicity or other studies might be needed.
