Dietary exposure assessments are not only required for new product development, but also in safety study design and assessments, and for regulatory petitions, including food additives and ingredients, dietary supplements, novel foods, and Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) substances. Cantox uses the most recent food consumption databases and techniques to calculate dietary exposure estimates for our clients.

Our services include:

• Expert scientific and international regulatory advice on dietary intake assessment
• Estimation of dietary exposure based on methodologies ranging from generalized food disappearance data to computerized food consumption databases for individuals
• Preparation of computerized dietary exposure estimates using international food consumption databases including those of North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand
• Provision of theoretical estimates of the mean, and percentile dietary exposure in terms of total exposure and exposures based on body weight (mg/kg body weight)
• Determination of acute as well as chronic estimates of dietary exposure for a number of different age groups within the total population
• Integration of dietary exposure assessments into safety assessments for product development or regulatory purposes

Whether supporting new product development or creating a new petition for an existing product, Cantox can provide the intake assessment strategy appropriate for you.
