經(jīng)過評估，專家小組認(rèn)為，在預(yù)期的使用條件下，不能排除飲食暴露引起過敏反應(yīng)的風(fēng)險，但這種情況發(fā)生的可能性很低。根據(jù)所提供的數(shù)據(jù)，評估小組得出結(jié)論，這種食品酶在預(yù)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 α-galactosidase (α-d-galactoside galactohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.22) is produced with the genetically modified Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain CBS 615.94 by Kerry Ingredients & Flavours Ltd. The production strain of the food enzyme contains multiple copies of a known antimicrobial resistance gene. However, based on the absence of viable cells and DNA from the production organism in the food enzyme, this is not considered to be a risk. As no other concerns arising from the genetically modified microbial source or from the manufacturing process have been identified, the Panel considered that toxicological tests were not needed for the assessment of this food enzyme. The food enzyme is intended to be used in guar gum processing. The dietary exposure was estimated to be up to 0.828 mg TOS/kg body weight per day in European populations. A search for the similarity of the amino acid sequence of the food enzyme to known allergens was made and no match was found. The Panel considered that a risk of allergic reactions by dietary exposure 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.
