2025年2月19日,歐盟食品安全局就一種枯草桿菌金屬蛋白酶(bacillolysin)的安全性評價發布意見。
據了解,這種食品酶是由轉基因解淀粉芽孢桿菌菌株NPR生產的,旨在用于10種食品生產過程。
經過評估,專家小組認為,在預期的使用條件下,不能排除飲食暴露引起過敏反應的風險,但這種情況發生的可能性很低。根據所提供的數據,評估小組得出結論,這種食品酶在預期使用條件下不會引起安全問題。部分原文報道如下:
The food enzyme bacillolysin (EC 3.4.24.28) is produced with the genetically modified Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain NPR by DSM Food Specialties B.V. The production strain meets the requirements for the qualified presumption of safety (QPS) status. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns. The food enzyme was considered free from viable cells of the production organism and its DNA. The food enzyme is intended to be used in 10 food manufacturing processes. Since residual amounts of food enzyme-total organic solids (TOS) are removed in one process, dietary exposure was calculated only for the remaining nine food manufacturing processes. It was estimated to be up to 6.450 mg TOS/kg body weight per day in European populations. Given the QPS status of the production strain and the absence of concerns resulting from the food enzyme manufacturing process, toxicity tests were considered unnecessary by the Panel. A search for the homology of the amino acid sequence of the bacillolysin to known allergens was made and no match was found. The Panel considered that the risk of allergic reactions upon dietary exposure to the food enzyme cannot be excluded, but the likelihood is low. based on the data provided, the Panel concluded that this food enzyme does not give rise to safety concerns, under the intended conditions of use.
