Notice of modification to the List of Permitted Food Enzymes to enable the use of xylanase from Trichoderma reesei RF5427 in various foods |
Summary |
Health Canada's Food Directorate completed a premarket safety assessment of a food additive submission seeking authorization for the use of xylanase from Trichoderma reesei RF5427 in various foods. The requested maximum level of use for this food enzyme is Good Manufacturing Practice.
The results of the premarket assessment support the safety of xylanase from T. reesei RF5427 for its requested uses. Consequently, Health Canada has enabled the use of xylanase from this source as described in the information document by modifying the List of Permitted Food Enzymes, effective 3 August 2023.
The purpose of this information document is to publicly announce the Department's decision in this regard and to provide the appropriate contact information for those wishing to submit an inquiry or new scientific information relevant to the safety of this food additive.
