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.
