German orientation values for mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) in foodstuffs
Working Group of the Federal States for Consumer Protection Working Group on Food Contact Materials, Wines and Cosmetics (ALB) The German Federation of Food Law and Food Science (BLL) In line with the decision of the 13th Consumer Protection Minister (VSMK) in 2017, the guideline values may represent the starting point for further minimization efforts.

German orientation values for mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) in foodstuffs
The key issues of the concept: Source independence Consideration of current data based on generally accepted analytical
methods Total fraction range C10 - C50
No consideration of exposure and toxicity Statistical analysis of the situation within a product group No legal or health assessment Accordingly, the values are recommendations and guidance for practice; by definition, they are not to be understood or applied as limit values.
