（a Regulations prescribing conditions under which food additive substances may be safely used predicate usage under conditions ofgood manufacturing practice. For the purpose of this part and parts 175, 176, and 177 of this chapter,good manufacturing practiceshall be defined to include the following restrictions:
? The quantity of any food additive substance that may be added to food as a result of use in articles that contact food shall not exceed, where no limits are specified, that which results from use of the substance in an amount not more than reasonably required to accomplish the intended physical or technical effect in the food-contact article; shall not exceed any prescribed limitations; and shall not be intended to accomplish any physical or technical effect in the food itself, except as such may be permitted by regulations in parts 170 through 189 of this chapter.
? Any substance used as a component of articles that contact food shall be of a purity suitable for its intended use.
（b The existence in the subchapter B of a regulation prescribing safe conditions for the use of a substance as an article or component of articles that contact food shall not be construed to relieve such use of the substance or article from compliance with any other provision of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For example, if a regulated food-packaging material were found on appropriate test to impart odor or taste to a specific food product such as to render it unfit within the meaning of section 402（a）（3 of the Act, the regulation would not be construed to relieve such use from compliance with section 402（a）（3?
（c The existence in this subchapter B of a regulation prescribing safe conditions for the use of a substance as an article or component of articles that contact food shall not be construed as implying that such substance may be safely used as a direct additive in food.

? Substances generally recognized as safe in or on food.
? Substances generally recognized as safe for their intended use in food packaging.
