CFSAN/Office of Plant and Dairy Foods May 7, 2004; updated June 7, 2004, June 15, 2005, October 27, 2006, and August 2, 2007 Exploratory Data on Furan in Food: Individual Food Products Data through September 12, 2006 Most Recent Data Table 1: Data through April 28, 2004 Table 2: Data through May 27, 2004 Table 3: Data through November 18, 2004 Table 4: Data through November 7, 2005 Table 5: Data through September 12, 2006 ------------------------------------- Background During investigations relating to review of a petition for the use of irradiation in certain foods, FDA scientists identified the substance furan in a number of foods that undergo heat treatment, such as canned and jarred foods. The presence of furan is a potential concern because, based on high-dose animal tests, furan is considered possibly carcinogenic to humans. FDA has developed a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry method to measure furan levels in food. FDA also issued a Federal Register Notice (May 10, 2004), requesting data and information from the public on furan in food and furan toxicology, and brought the topic of furan to its Food Advisory Committee on June 8, 2004. FDA also issued an Action Plan for Furan in Food on September 1, 2005. The data FDA is now posting furan data that were collected through September 12, 2006. Data are presented in chronological order with data collected between July 12, 2006, and September 12, 2006, presented in Table 5. FDA previously posted exploratory furan data collected through April 28, 2004, through May 27, 2004, through November 18, 2004, and through November 7, 2005, which are found in Tables 1-4, respectively. We are presenting these data to inform the public of FDA's progress and to help stimulate research into the formation of furan in food. The results reflect furan levels detected in samples of individual food products. Limits of the data These data are exploratory and should not be understood to be a reflection of the distribution of furan in foods in the U.S. food supply. The data cover a limited number of food categories, a limited number of products in those categories, and a limited number of brands. Also, the data do not fully address the variation from one unit of a food product to another unit of the same product, or from one production lot of a food product to another lot. Also, the choice of products for testing in this exploratory survey should not be taken as an indicator of food product choices by consumers. What consumers should understand Consumers should not view the furan levels in Tables 1-5 as an indicator of furan exposure, or as the "risk" of eating certain foods. First, furan levels alone do not equate to furan exposure; calculating exposure requires consideration of both furan levels, and the amounts of food that consumers eat. Second, estimates of furan exposure take into account not single food items, but the wide variety of foods found in a range of diets. Third, the scope of data in Tables 1-5 is too limited to properly consider potential sources of variation in measured furan levels, such as variability between different units or lots of food and the effect of consumer cooking practices on furan levels. ---------------------------------------------- Notes for Tables 1 and 2: ND = nondetect The estimated limit of quantitation (LOQ) is 2.0 ppb for coffee, applesauce and juices and 5.0 ppb for all other foods. Values below the LOQ but above the estimated limit of detection (0.7 ppb for coffee, applesauce and juices and 1.5 ppb for all other foods) are reported as < 2.0 ppb and < 5.0 ppb respectively. Concentrates (infant formulas and broth) were mixed with water (1:1) for analysis. Results are reported as table ready. All ground coffee was brewed using automatic drip coffee makers. Instant coffees were reconstituted per manufacturer directions. Foods with multiple results were from different cans or jars within the same lot.
