Any of the rules and regulations that pertain to the standards the Federal Food and Drug Administration have established that address quality standards of foods and drugs for human consumption. The FDA’s responsibility in regard to areas they create standards for are described as:

“FDA is the federal agency responsible for ensuring that foods are safe, wholesome and sanitary; human and veterinary drugs, biological products, and medical devices are safe and effective; cosmetics are safe; and electronic products that emit radiation are safe. FDA also ensures that these products are honestly, accurately and informatively represented to the public”.
