The food enzyme alternansucrase (sucrose:1,6(1,3)‐α‐d‐glucan 6(3)‐α‐d‐glucosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.140) is produced with a non‐genetically modified Leuconostoc citreum strain NRRL B‐30894 by Cargill Incorporated. As a consequence of the absence of antimi ...
This opinion deals with the re‐evaluation of polydextrose (E 1200) when used as a food additive. The Panel followed the conceptual framework for the risk assessment of certain additives and considered that: adequate exposure estimates were available; the ...
The food enzyme is a protease complex, containing trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4), chymotrypsin (EC 3.4.21.1), pancreatic elastase (EC 3.4.21.36) and carboxypeptidase B (EC 3.4.17.2), obtained from porcine pancreas by Neova Technologies Inc. The food enzyme is inte ...
The food enzyme triacylglycerol lipase (triacylglycerol acylhydrolase EC 3.1.1.3) is produced with a genetically modified Aspergillus niger strain NZYM‐DB by Novozymes A/S. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns. The food enzyme is ...
The food enzyme is a serine protease complex, containing trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) and chymotrypsin (EC 3.4.21.1), obtained from porcine pancreas by Neova Technologies Inc. The serine protease complex is intended to be used for hydrolysis of whey proteins emp ...
The food enzyme cellulase (4‐(1,3;1,4)‐β‐d‐glucan 4‐glucanohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.4) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Penicillium funiculosum strain Lzc35 by Danisco US Inc. The cellulase is intended to be used in distilled alcohol production, b ...
The food enzyme dextranase (6‐α‐d‐glucan 6‐glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.11) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Collariella gracilis strain ATCC‐16153 by Mitsubishi‐Kagaku Foods Corporation. The food enzyme is free from viable cells of the product ...
Bacterial antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is considered to be very alarming following an upward trend and thus posing a primary threat to public health. AMR has tremendous adverse effects on humans, farm animals, healthcare, the environment, agriculture an ...
The EUropean FOod Risk Assessment (EU‐FORA) Fellowship work programme ‘Livestock Health and Food Chain Risk Assessment’, funded by EFSA was proposed by the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA), UK. A scientist with a PhD in Food Science was selected to w ...
Food contact materials (FCM) can contain chemicals that could migrate from the material itself to the foodstuff posing health concerns if ingested in non‐safe quantities by the consumer. FCM include containers, packaging, machinery or kitchenware and can ...
