Formatter URL edit

The formatter URL

 http://www.codexalimentarius.net/gsfaonline/additives/results.html?searchBy=ins&ins=$1

does not work and should be changed to this:

 http://www.fao.org/gsfaonline/additives/results.html?searchBy=ins&ins=$1

Current link not working on every item edit

I found this link not working for some additives like E537. I found another link for a Dutch website: https://www.voedingswaardetabel.nl/e-nummers/ This list also does not contain every link. Is it possible to add this link as an alternative? Q.Zanden questions? 21:09, 23 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Regex incorrect edit

It should be: E\d{3,4}[A-z][A-z]

This will also validate E-numbers,such as E452iv.

  • @Arnaudleene: we should distinguish two things: number like Exxxa and numbers like Exxx(iv). AFAIK number like the first (e.g. E150a plain caramel) are E numbers; numbers like the second (e.g. E450(iv) dipotassium diphosphate) are not E numbers (valid E number for dipotassium diphosphate is E450). So I think the change shoud allow small lower case letter a-j, but adding the second letter shouldn't be allowed. Maybe the WHO INS numbers has "(iv)" or "iv" suffixes.

Constraint is not correct edit

For food additives the correct statement would be with has use (P366), not using instance of (P31)/subclass of (P279). The current constraints should be modified. Wostr (talk) 23:21, 26 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Database edit

The Reference database for the E-number should not be the FAO

http://www.fao.org/gsfaonline/additives/results.html?searchBy=ins&ins=$1

but the food safety Database from EFSA:

https://ec.europa.eu/food/safety/food-improvement-agents/additives/database_en

Reason: The E-Nummer is soley for the European Union. The FAO has more/other additives registered with INS numbers which are not approved in the EU and doesn't have an E number. Regards --Bert (talk) 14:42, 20 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Is there a way to create direct links to this DB using E numbers? Wostr (talk) 20:29, 20 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
Unfortunately not. The database uses different structure than E-numbers. E. g. entry 6 is for E 101. regards --Bert (talk) 12:42, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Not only for food additive but also animal feed additive edit

The description should be extended as E-numbers are not solely used for food additives but also animal food additives. This has been introduced by Council Directive 70/524/EEC in 1970.

Mostly identical numbers are used for feed than for food additives, but there are cases where

  • different numbers are used for the same substance (e.g. fumaric acid has E 297 in food, E 295 in feed), or
  • the same number for different substances (e.g. E 285 for borax in food, methylpropionic acid in feed).

In addition, there are differences between these E-numbers and the number of the Internation Numbering System - as already stated above. --Bert (talk) 12:59, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
