• The gelatin in Jell-O is what lets you transform it into all sorts of different shapes. What exactly is gelatin? Gelatin is just a processed version of a structural protein called collagen that is found in many animals, including humans. ...
• The gelatin you eat in Jell-O comes from the collagen in cow or pig bones, hooves, and connective tissues. To make gelatin, manufacturers grind up these various parts and pre-treat them with either a strong acid or a strong base to break down cellular structures and release proteins like collagen. ... During this process, the large collagen protein ends up being partially broken down, and the resulting product is called gelatin. The gelatin is easily extracted because it forms a layer on the surface of the boiling mixture. ...

This guidance document represents the agency's current thinking on reducing the potential risk of transmission of BSE related to the use of gelatin in FDA-regulated products for human use. ...
• Purpose - This guidance document addresses the safety of gelatin as it relates to the potential risk posed by BSE in FDA-regulated products for human use. It is intended to provide guidance to industry concerning the sourcing and processing of gelatin used in FDA-regulated products. ... The committee reviewed data on the sourcing and processing of materials used to make gelatin as well as data from an experimental study on the effect of gelatin processing on the infectivity of a spongiform agent. ...
• Guidance on Gelatin - In 1994, representatives of the gelatin industry presented preliminary data to FDA staff concerning an experimental study of the infectivity of TSE-infected tissue that had undergone one of two processes (lime or acid) used to make gelatin. Based on these data, FDA decided not to include gelatin as part of its recommendations concerning other bovine ingredients in FDA-regulated products. A notice in the Federal Register of August 29, 1994, summarized FDA's recommendations to reduce any potential BSE risk and clarified that FDA's recommendations at that time did not extend to gelatin for human use produced from bovine materials from BSE countries. ...
• Recent Review of Gelatin Guidance - In 1996, FDA decided to review its previous guidance on the use of gelatin because of new information suggesting that BSE may be transmissible to humans and because of updated data from the study on the effect of gelatin processing on infectivity. ...
• 1 The tissue was treated with lime or with acid according to gelatin manufacturing conditions. ...
• The advisory committee members stated opinions on questions raised by FDA and were polled on their answers to the final question, "Does current scientific evidence justify continuing to exempt gelatin from restrictions recommended by FDA for other bovine-derived materials from BSE countries?" Ten of the 14 members responded "no"or a "qualified no"to this question (see Appendix B for a summary of the advisory committee meeting). ...
•  Recommendations - FDA has been reviewing the currently available scientific information, including information provided on behalf of the Gelatin Manufacturers of Europe and the Gelatin Manufacturers Institute of America. ... Based on this review, FDA proposes the following recommendations concerning the acceptability of gelatin for use in FDA-regulated products intended for human use: .
• In order to ensure that all parties in the distribution chain take appropriate responsibility, importers, manufacturers, and suppliers should determine the tissue, species, and country source of all materials to be used in processing gelatin for human use.
• Bones and hides from cattle that shows signs of neurological disease, from any source country, should not be used as raw material for the manufacture of gelatin. ...
