Regarding flavoring substances, JECFA concluded that there is no safety concern and established specifications for 21 agents across three classes: aliphatic primary alcohols, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, acetals, and esters containing additional oxygenated functional groups; linear and branched-chain aliphatic, unsaturated and unconjugated alcohols, aldehydes, acids, and related esters; and saturated aliphatic acyclic linear primary alcohols, aldehydes, and acids.

To ensure the optimal precipitation percentage, it is important to carefully control these factors during the precipitation process. For example, a higher concentration of titanium sulfate will typically result in a higher precipitation percentage, but may also lead to the formation of impurities. On the other hand, a lower pH of the reaction mixture can promote the precipitation of titanium hydroxide, but may also result in a lower precipitation percentage.
