Legal aspects

In Europe, gellan gum is listed as generally permitted food additive (E418) and may be added to all foodstuffs, following the ‘quantum satis’ principle, as long as no special regulation restricts the use (cf. Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008).

In the USA the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has affirmed gellan gum as food additive permitted for direct addition to food for human consumption in accordance with 21 CFR § 172.665.

Being a polymer, gellan gum is exempted from REACH registration. Also, no monomer registration is required for this substance.
