recommendation for ammonia usage levels up to :
 not for fragrance use.
 
Use levels for FEMA GRAS flavoring substances on which the FEMA Expert Panel based its judgments that the substances are generally recognized as safe (GRAS).
The Expert Panel also publishes separate extensive reviews of scientific information on all FEMA GRAS flavoring substances and can be found at FEMA on the "LIBRARY" link.

Food categories according to Commission Regulation EC No. 1565/2000 (EC, 2000) in FGE.06 (EFFA, 2002a). According to the Industry the "normal" use is defined as the average of reported usages and "maximum use" is defined as the 95th percentile of reported usages (EFFA, 2002i).
Note : mg/kg = 0.001/1000 = 0.000001 = 1/1000000 = ppm.
