Regulated substances (7)
Saccharin (sodium salt) — previously Group 2B, now Group 3 (IARC carcinogen)
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) — generic (REACH SVHC)
Saccharin (sodium salt) is an artificial sweetener, often used in diet drinks, tabletop sweeteners, and some processed foods. It was previously classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as Group 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans), but after reviewing newer scientific evidence, IARC reclassified it as Group 3 in 1999. Group 3 means the evidence is not sufficient to classify it as carcinogenic to humans. This change reflects updated research, not a safety alert. Saccharin is still approved for use in many countries, including the U.S. and Europe, within regulated limits. The reclassification shows how scientific understanding evolves over time.

PFAS, short for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a large group of human-made chemicals used to make products resistant to water, grease, and stains. You'll find them in non-stick cookware, waterproof clothing, food packaging, and some firefighting foams. The European Union's REACH regulation lists PFAS as "substances of very high concern" because they are persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT). This means they don't break down easily in the environment, build up in living organisms, and can cause long-term harm. Because PFAS are so widespread and stable, multiple subgroups are regulated under the Candidate List and other restrictions. The goal is to phase out their use and reduce pollution.
