Approved lists

For supply - Approved Supply List - Information approved for the classification and labelling of substances and preparations dangerous for supply . Guidance on the Regulations. HSE publication L124 (loose leaf). 

For transport - Approved Carriage List — Information approved for the carriage of dangerous goods by road and rail other than explosives and radioactive materials . HSE publication L90. 

It takes account of the amendments required by CHIP 2002 and is in six parts  

Part I -for each dangerous substance gives alternative names, CAS number, index number, classification and relevant risk and safety numbers. 

Part II - gives the EINECS description, index number and CAS number. Part III - lists mixtures and mixture/specific isomers and gives index number. Part rV - gives information on the classification of pesticides. 

Part II- gives the EINECS description, index number and CAS number.

Flavor. Dentifrices are used to refresh the oral cavity. Flavor oils and other flavoring materials are key to that function (see Flavors and spices). Generally recognized as safe (GRAS) flavors or flavors from approved lists are used. The most popular flavors are peppermint [8006-90-4], spearmint [8008-79-5], cinnamon [8006-79-9], and mixtures of these. Menthol is a principal constituent of the mint flavors and a source of refreshment and coolness.

Any substance which under the Classification, Packaging and Labelling of Dangerous Substances Regulations 1984 (SI 1984/22, amended by SI 1986/1922 and SI 1988/766) has been assigned the risk phrase, R45 May Cause Cancer, and which is listed in Part (A) of the approved list. 

Requirements for labelling of containers for supply may differ from those for conveyance. Key features of a supply label are to identify the substance (the chemical name in most cases) and any hazards and safety precuations. In Europe the classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances is covered by Directive 67/548/EEC as amended. This requires labels to identify appropriate risk and safety phrases (Tables 12.2 and 12.3) depending upon product properties. A substance is considered dangerous if in Part lA of an approved list or if it exhibits hazardous properties as defined in Schedule 1 for supply, or Schedule 2 for conveyance as shown in Tables 12.4 and 12.5. Substances not tested should be labelled Caution — substance not yet fully tested . Criteria for risk phrases are provided, e.g. as in Table 12.6 for toxic compounds.

Colorants do not contribute to therapeutic activity, nor do they improve product bioavailability or stability. Indeed, they increase the cost and complication of the manufacturing process. Their main role is to facilitate identification and to enhance the esthetic appearance of the product. In common with all material to be ingested by humans, solid dosage forms are severely restricted in the coloring agents that are allowable. This situation is complicated by the lack in international agreement on an approved list of colorants suitable for ingestion. 

With the exception of ethylene vinyl acetate added in the 1980 s, the list of materials and polymers approved as packaging for food irradiated products has remained static for decades. This article supplies details of the approved list, which includes such polymers as polyethylene terephthalate and polyvinyl chloride. The article provides an update on the latest proactive move to expand the list of packaging materials and polymers approved for the irradiation of foods. The expanded list would include ethylene vinyl alcohol, PVC film, ionomers, nylon 66, 6/12 and copolyesters among others. 

In Malaya the Rubber Research Institute is continually studying new and old fungicidal treatments. These are gazetted and, if they have passed tests, they are included in an approved list, which gives the range of concentrations that will properly inhibit the disease and still not be too toxic for treating the newly cut bark tissues. The materials are applied by spraying a narrow band on the trunk, on each... 

Further investigation revealed that Kligman had reported tests on three groups of prisoners, but he could only find the records for two. In addition, he had reported blood tests on patients who were not even in his hospital. For only the second time in its history, the FDA struck a doctor s name from its approved list of researchers. My earlier criticism of the quality of the work he was doing may not have been so outrageous after all. 

To function effectively, detection devices, particularly the spot, fixed-temperature, heat type, must be properly positioned. Detailed requirements for spacing can be found in NFPA 72. These spacing requirements are based on limitations contained in UL listings and FM Global approval lists and industry experience.
