Food Chemicals Codex CD-ROM defines the quality of food-grade chemicals in terms of identity, strength, and purity based on the elements of safety and good manufacturing practice. This cd-rom parallels the revisions and changes reflected in the fourth edition of the Food Chemical Codex, including 192 new monographs (for a total of 967), several quantitative procedures to measure low lead levels, and new, lower limits on lead and heavy metal contaminants.
Users can quickly locate chemical names and specific data not only through its full text and work-search capabilities. It also allows the user to perform quick searches for information by:
- chemical name and synonyms
- molecular formula
- molecular weight
- CAS number
- INS
- description
- functional use in foods
- requirements
- uses
For flavor chemicals, individual search forms include:
- chemical name
- FEMA number
- formula
- physical form
- odor
- solubility
- boiling point
- specific gravity
Another highlight of the electronic Food Chemicals Codex CD-ROM is that the infrared spectra can be zoomed and panned for easy viewing, and there are individual search forms for spectra by Essential Oils and Flavor Chemicals.
