Safety Evaluation of β-Galactosidase for Lactose Hydrolysis in the EU
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has released an opinion on the safety assessment of β-galactosidase, a food enzyme produced by non-genetically modified Papiliotrema terrestris strain AE-BLC, used for the production of low-level lactose hydrolysis.
The safety evaluation of β-galactosidase, a food enzyme employed in the production of low-level lactose hydrolysis, has been examined by the European Food Safety Authority. Produced using non-genetically modified Papiliotrema terrestris strain AE-BLC, this enzyme has the potential to facilitate lactose breakdown in various food products. The expert panel's assessment indicates that while there may be a low possibility of allergic reactions from dietary exposure, the overall likelihood remains minimal. Based on the provided data, the evaluation group concludes that the food enzyme does not give rise to safety concerns under the intended conditions of use.
