The law covers those already in use, with a time allowance for testers to tackle the backlog, as well as any proposed for future use. The test technique : put the additive in an appropriate food and give it to laboratory animals (150 rats, 21 dogs, at three-dose levels) for their natural lifetime or a minimum of two years. Even if the critters die natural deaths, their bodies will still be dissected...
