Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety of sodium saccharin as a sensory feed additive (flavouring compound) for suckling and weaned piglets, fattening pigs, calves for rearing and for fattening. In a previous assessment, the Panel on Additives and Products or substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP Panel) could not co
nclude on the safety of the additive for the enviro
nment because co
ncentrations of the additive or its degradation product 4-hydroxysaccharin in groundwater above 0.1 g/L were likely to occur. In addition, regarding user safety, sodium saccharin was co
nsidered to be potentially harmful by inhalation or by co
ntact to skin and eyes. In the current opinion, the applicant restricted the use to suckling and weaned piglets and up to a use level of 5 mg/kg complete feed. In relation to the user safety, the additive was neither a skin or eye irritant, nor a dermal sensitiser. In the absence of data, the FEEDAP Panel could not co
nclude on the potential of the additive to be toxic by inhalation. Regarding the safety of the additive for the environment, the new co
nditions of use describe a maximum use level of 5 mg sodium saccharin/kg feed. The applicant indicated that a restriction to a lower use level due to enviro
nmental safety would be accepted and submitted an enviro
nment risk assessment ba
sed on a use level of 1.13 mg sodium saccharin/kg feed. This use level cannot be co
nsidered safe. The estimated use level that would result in a co
ncentration in groundwater below 0.1 g/L is of 0.022 mg sodium saccharin/kg feed. The available data do not allow to co
nclude on the potential effect of the degradation product 4-hydroxysaccharin in ground water.
