    At present, the total output of the world's seaweed industry amounts to around US$6 billion, with more than 8 million tonnes of wet seaweed used annually. Seaweeds are widely used as food but are also an important ingredient for the cosmetics industry. They also serve to produce hydrocolloids (alginate, agar and carrageenan), which are used as thickening and gelling agents. This document highlights the rising importance of seaweed farming and shows how an essential Asian food has becom e popular in North and South America as well as in Europe. The report will be useful to those who wish to know more about the seaweed industry, about the markets for commercial seaweeds and about the various sources and methods of production. It is written with a minimum of technical language and is designed to assist in making decisions concerning seaweeds and the seaweed industry.

    The labelling of food allergens in pre-packaged foods plays a key role in protecting food allergic individuals, as no preventative clinical treatment is currently available. The list of major foods and ingredients known to cause hypersensitivity was included into the Codex General Standard for the Labelling of Packaged Foods (GSLPF) in 1999. There have been many scientific developments in the understanding of food allergens and their management since the original drafting of the GSLPF. Thus, in response to the request from Codex for scientific advice, including current evidence of consumer understanding of allergens, FAO and WHO convened a series of three expert meetings to provide scientific advice on this subject. The purpose of the first meeting of the Ad hoc Joint FAO/WHO Expert Consultation on Risk Assessment of Food Allergens was to review and validate the Codex priority allergen list through risk assessment. This report focuses on the deliberations and conclusions of this meeting.
