/>i- Yesterday, FDA announced that it was adding new features to the electronic module (COSM) through which users can send fully electronic submissions to FDA’s Office of Food Additive Safety (OFAS), a part of the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN). OFAS has responsibility for review of food ingredients and packaging and administers related programs including the generally recognized as safe (GRAS) notification program and the food contact notification (FCN) program.
- With the updates users can now (1) submit documents directly to OFAS through the COSM module, (2) send secure communication to OFAS, and (3) access a dashboard displaying the current status of submissions.
- COSM is available for the following OFAS submissions: (1) Biotechnology Notification File (BNF), (2) Color Additive Petition (CAP), (3) Food Additive Petition (FAP), (4) FCN, (5) GRAS Notice (GRN), (6) New Protein Consultation (NPC), and (7) Pre-Notification Consultation (PNC) for a food contact substance.
- Additional information about the COSM module and how to use it can be found at the COSM webpage.
