Editorial note:

The limit of determination is the lowest concentration of a chemical that can be qualitatively detected
using a laboratory method and/or item of laboratory equipment (that is, its presence can be detected
but not quantified).

For Ice Structuring Protein type III HPLC 12 in the Table to clause 14, the manufacturer and patent
holder, Unilever, has undertaken to voluntarily label products where the processing aid has been used
in the manufacturing process. This labelling will appear on the product as ‘ice structuring protein’.
Unilever will also have information about ice structuring protein available to consumers.

Editorial note:

If Listeria phage P100 has an ongoing technological function it ceases to be a processing aid as
defined in subclause 1(1), and operates instead as a food additive. For example, Listeria phage P100
may have an ongoing technological function when introduced to liquids. Standard 1.3.1 does not
permit the use of Listeria phage P100 as a food additive.
