Sec. 70.55  Request for scientific studies.

    The Commissioner will consider requests by any interested person who 
desires the Food and Drug Administration to conduct scientific studies 
to support a petition for a regulation for a color additive. If 
favorably acted upon, such studies will be limited to pharmacological 
investigations, studies of the chemical and physical structure of the 
color additive, and methods of analysis of the pure color additive 
(including impurities) and its identification and determination in 
foods, drugs, or cosmetics, as the case may be. All requests for such 
studies shall be accompanied by the fee prescribed in Sec. 70.19.
