2015年4月23日,美国发布G/SPS/N/USA/2754通报,修订色素使用条例,拟允许云母钛珠光颜料作为食品添加剂用于蒸馏酒类。
按照最新规定,当云母钛珠光颜料用于酒精含量在18%至25%(以体积计)之间的蒸馏酒时,最大添加量应不超过0.07%(以重量计),对于含有超过5%葡萄酒的蒸馏酒混合物则解除目前的限制。
部分原文报道如下:

GalloWinery, proposing that the color additive regulations be amended to provide for the safe use of mica-based pearlescent pigments as color additives in certain distilled spirits.
