including selecting an appropriate
animal model; study monitoring; and
study evaluation. The document also
provides recommendations on test
facility selection, animal housing, and
records and reports, including animal
study reports for premarket
submissions. This guidance supersedes
the final guidance ‘‘General
Considerations for Animal Studies for
Cardiovascular Devices,’’ issued on July
28, 2010.
A notice of availability of the draft
guidance appeared in the Federal
Register of October 14, 2015 (80 FR
61820). FDA considered comments
received and revised the guidance as
appropriate in response to the
comments, including increased
emphasis of the 3Rs to reduce, refine,
and replace animal use in testing when
feasible, reorganization of the guidance
to better represent the study design,
conduct, and reporting process,
clarification of important terminology,
and technical edits.
This guidance is being issued
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115).
The guidance represents the current
thinking of FDA on general
considerations for animal Studies
intended to evaluate medical devices. It
does not establish any rights for any
person and is not binding on FDA or the
public. You can use an alternative
approach if it satisfies the requirements
of the applicable statutes and
regulations.

announcing that we have issued a
temporary permit to Chobani, LLC (the
applicant) to market test lower fat
yogurt products deviating from the
general definition and standard of
identity for yogurt with modified
milkfat and fat-containing flavoring
ingredients, and yogurt deviating from
the yogurt standard of identity by using
ultrafiltered nonfat milk as a basic dairy
ingredient. The temporary permit will
allow the applicant to evaluate
commercial viability of the products
and to collect data on consumer
acceptance of the products.
This temporary permit is
effective for 15 months, beginning on
the date the applicant introduces or
causes introduction of the test products
into interstate commerce, but not later
than June 26, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are
giving notice that we have issued a
temporary permit to Chobani, LLC. We
are issuing the temporary permit in
accordance with 21 CFR 130.17, which
addresses temporary permits for
interstate shipments of experimental
packs of food varying from the
requirements of definitions and
standards of identity issued under
section 401 of the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 341).
The temporary permit covers
interstate market testing of the yogurt
products. The test products deviate from
the basic dairy ingredient provision of
the yogurt standard of identity (21 CFR
E:\FR\FM\28MRN1.SGM
28MRN1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 59 / Tuesday, March 28, 2023 / Notices
131.200(b)). This temporary permit
would allow the applicant to
manufacture yogurts using ultrafiltered
nonfat milk as a basic dairy ingredient
through the addition of water and nonnutritive sweeteners. Consumers can
distinguish this deviation in
manufacturing from yogurts meeting the
standard of identity for yogurt using the
list of ingredients, wherein the
‘‘ultrafiltered nonfat milk’’ ingredient
would be declared as such according to
its common or usual name followed by
a means to indicate to the consumer that
the ingredient is not found in regular
yogurt consistent with 21 CFR
130.10(g)(2).
The purpose of the temporary permit
is to allow the applicant to market test
the products throughout the United
States. The temporary permit will allow
the applicant to evaluate commercial
viability of the products and to collect
data on consumer acceptance of the
products.
This temporary permit provides the
temporary marketing of a maximum of
150,000,000 pounds (68,038,855.5
kilograms) of the test products. Chobani,
LLC will manufacture the test products
at its facilities located at 3450 Kimberly
Rd. East, Twin Falls, ID 83301 and 669
County Rd. 25, New Berlin, NY 13411.
Chobani, LLC will produce, market test,
and distribute the test products
throughout the United States.
Each ingredient used in the food must
be declared on the labels as required by
the applicable sections of 21 CFR part
101. This temporary permit is effective
for 15 months, beginning on the date the
applicant introduces or causes the
introduction of the test products into
interstate commerce, but not later than
June 26, 2023.
Dated: March 23, 2023.
