Dr Anne-Marie Orth is a state-certified food chemist and a publicly appointed and sworn expert in food chemistry. She has been with RDA Scientific Consultants GmbH since 2014 and has extensive experience in providing scientific and regulatory advice to national and international companies in the food and food supplement sectors.

Her areas of expertise include the assessment of product formulations and labelling, the scientific evaluation of foods and food ingredients, and the preparation of toxicological expert opinions in crisis situations. She also supports complex authorisation procedures at EU level, particularly for Novel Foods, food additives, food enzymes, flavourings and health claims.

Dr Orth studied food chemistry at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg and subsequently completed the practical training required to qualify as a state-certified food chemist. She obtained her PhD from the Technical University of Munich, where her research focused on dietary exposure assessments for flavouring substances. Her work formed part of the European FACET research project and was closely linked to the safety assessment of flavouring substances and the establishment of the Union list under Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008.

Alongside her consultancy work, Dr Orth is a regular speaker at national and international professional conferences. She is also a guest lecturer at the Technical University of Munich, where she teaches on Novel Foods and authorisation procedures at EU level. One of her particular strengths is her ability to communicate complex scientific and regulatory matters in a clear, practical and accessible manner.
