Description
EFSA, the European Food Safety Authority, issues a 2026 scientific report setting safe intake values for trifluoroacetic acid, a breakdown product of concern in food and water. The European Commission asked the authority to revise the acceptable daily intake and the acute reference dose for consumers.
After a targeted call for data in late 2024, a working group weighed the full evidence and judged that the acid and its sodium salt are unlikely to damage genes directly. The group set a daily intake value derived from the available toxicity data. Food safety officials and risk managers across Europe gain updated health-based limits they can apply when judging residues in crops, water, and the wider diet.
