Draft MOPH Notification, B.E..., entitled "Enzymes for Food Processing". |
| Tóm tắt |
Enzymes for food processing are now covered by the MOPH Notification No. 281 B.E. 2547 (2004) Re: Food Additives. Enzymes, other than those approved by Codex General Standard for Food Additives, are required to have safety evaluations before they are allowed for use in food production. Due to differences between information requirements of enzymes and other chemical food additives, the Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) is proposing the notification on Enzymes for Food Processing.
This notification sets the rules for industrial enzymes intended to be used in food processing both as food additives and processing aids. However, the scope of this notification excludes: enzymes for nutritional purposes; enzymes produced by traditional microbial cultures during fermentation; and enzymes used exclusively in the production of food additives or processing aids.
Enzymes for food processing should be qualified as follows:
• Enzyme activity is over 85 percent of informed enzyme activity. No genetic engineering microbes in 1 g (for enzymes derived from genetic engineering microbes).
Quality and safety are under the following conditions:
3.1 Compliance with Codex Advisory Specification for the Identity and Purity of Food Additive
3.2 Compliance with General specification and considerations for enzyme preparations used in food processing as follows:
- Salmonella spp.: Absent in 25g sample
- Total coliforms: Not more than 30MPN/g
- Escherichia coli: Absent in 25g sample
- Lead: not more than 5mg/kg
- Antibiotic Activity: Absent in preparations from microbial sources.
