Is sodium succinate allowed in food?

Updated by SFA
Sodium succinate, if referring to disodium succinate (FEMA 3277, FL no. 08.113), has been evaluated and endorsed by recognised international bodies such as the Flavour and Extract Manufacturers Association (FEMA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) for use as a flavouring substance. We would have no objection to its use as a flavouring agent in food, provided that the flavouring preparation does not contain any of the prohibited substances listed under Regulation 22(7) of the Food Regulations.
