Modification to the List of permitted food enzymes to authorize the use of lipase from a new source |
| Summary |
Health Canada's Food and Nutrition Directorate completed a premarket safety assessment of lipase from Rhizopus arrhizus (also known as Rhizopus delemar var. multiplicisporus and Rhizopus oryzae) strain AE-TL, for use as a food enzyme in the manufacture of modified fats and oils. The results of the assessment support the safety of lipase from R. arrhizus AE-TL for its requested use. Therefore, Health Canada has authorized the use of lipase from R. arrhizus AE-TL, as described in the information document above by modifying the List of Permitted Food Enzymes, effective 6 September 2024. The purpose of the 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.
