Gum tragacanth (GT), affirmed as GRAS within the USA since 1961, was evaluated as 'ADI not specified' by JECFA in 1985. Within the EEC, GT has been permitted temporarily as a food additive (E413), without an ADI, since 1974; a decision regarding its permanent status must be reached before the end of 1988. This review collates the dietary, toxicological, immunological and chemical data available and presents the pre-requisite data concerning the 'Need' and low levels of utilization of GT.
刺梧桐树胶（GT）自1961年起在美国被确认为一般认为安全（GRAS）物质，1985年被食品添加剂联合专家委员会（JECFA）评估为“未指定每日允许摄入量（ADI）”。在欧洲经济共同体（EEC）内，自1974年起，GT被临时允许作为食品添加剂（E413）使用，但没有ADI；必须在1988年底前就其永久地位做出决定。本综述整理了现有的饮食、毒理学、免疫学和化学数据，并提供了关于GT的“必要性”和低使用水平的必要数据。
