TLDR
In this article, the authors discuss the value and limitations of the Budget Method and make some adjustments to the original Budget Method in order to take more recent data on food intake and food additive use into account.Abstract:
It is the purpose of the present article to discuss the value and the limitations of the Budget Method. Taking sweeteners as an example, it is shown that the Budget Method may be used to differentiate between compounds which qualify for a GMP regulation and those which require an allocation of maximum limits of use. However, some adjustments of the original Budget Method may be required for such calculations in order to take more recent data on food intake and food additive use into accountread more

Assessing and reporting uncertainties in dietary exposure analysis: Mapping of uncertainties in a tiered approach

TL;DR: This analysis identifies that there are general uncertainties common to point estimates (screening or deterministic methods) and probabilistic exposure assessment methods and general sources of uncertainty affecting many dietary exposure assessments should be separated from model-specific uncertainties.

Monitoring sweetener consumption in Great Britain
A L Hinson,W M Nicol +1 more
TL;DR: The quantities consumed of all sweeteners were found to be below the Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) values established by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives, the European Commission Scientific Committee for Food or the UK Committee on Toxicity of Chemicals in Food, Consumer Products and the Environment.

Evaluation of the budget method for screening food additive intakes
TL;DR: The Budget Method appears to be a suitably conservative screen for establishing additive monitoring priorities based on potential lifetime average intakes, and its assumptions regarding energy intake and liquid intake are higher than mean intakes reported in surveys.

Needs and methods for priority setting for estimating the intake of food additives
TL;DR: A scheme is proposed which incorporates both exposure estimation and toxicology in determining which food additives should be allocated a high priority for inclusion in intake surveys.

Estimates of maximum limits of food colours use in Brazil through the Danish Budget Method and the Bär and Würtzen-modified method.
TL;DR: In this article, both the Budget Method and the Bar and Wurtzen-modified method were applied to evaluate whether the maximum levels of food colours use exceeded their Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) or not.
