jecfa_by_functional_class
Pack: jecfa · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/jecfa/mcp
List every substance JECFA has evaluated in one functional class — sweeteners, preservatives, colours, emulsifiers, antioxidants and so on — or every substance in one of the four groups: food_additives, flavouring_agents, food_contaminants, veterinary_drugs. Each entry carries its ADI and CAS number. Use to survey what is permitted in a category rather than to look up a single substance.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
functional_class | string | yes | Class name (“sweetener”, “preservative”), group name (“food_additives”), or a numeric class id from jecfa_functional_classes. |
