食品夥伴網訊 據加拿大衛生部消息,7月14日加拿大衛生部發布通告,修訂食品酶列表,批准一種產自嗜熱脂肪地芽孢桿菌(Geobacillus stearothermophilus TP7)的蛋白酶用於水解動物、植物與牛奶蛋白以及水解酵母。
目前加拿大衛生部已批准多種有機體來源的蛋白酶用於食品,這包括水解動物、牛奶與植物蛋白。然而尚未批准嗜熱脂肪地芽孢桿菌TP7。經過評估,加拿大衛生部認為該蛋白酶用於食品是安全的。
部分原文報導如下:
Health Canada received a food additive submission seeking approval for the use of protease from Geobacillus stearothermophilus TP7 as a food enzyme in hydrolyzed animal, milk, and vegetable protein, and in hydrolyzed yeast.
Protease from various other source organisms is already permitted for use in Canada as a food enzyme in a range of foods, including hydrolyzed animal, milk and vegetable protein. However, Geobacillus stearothermophilus TP7 has not previously been approved in Canada as a permitted source for any enzyme.
