食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊 2021年1月19日,據(jù)歐盟食品安全局(EFSA)消息,歐盟營(yíng)養(yǎng)、新型食品和食物過(guò)敏原(NDA)研究小組就裂殖壺菌油(oil from Schizochytrium limacinum (strain FCC‐3204) )作為新型食品用于嬰兒及較大嬰兒配方食品中的安全性發(fā)表科學(xué)意見(jiàn)。
經(jīng)過(guò)評(píng)估,專(zhuān)家小組得出結(jié)論,在建議的使用條件下,裂殖壺菌油作為新型食品用于嬰兒及較大嬰兒配方食品中是安全的。部分原文報(bào)道如下:
Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on the safety of Schizochytrium sp. oil as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. Schizochytrium sp. is a single‐cell microalga. The strain FCC‐ 3204, used by the applicant (Fermentalg), belongs to the species Schizochytrium limacinum. The NF, an oil rich in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), is obtained from microalgae after enzymatic lysis. The applicant proposed to use the NF in infant formulae (IF) and follow‐on formulae (FOF). The use level defined by the applicant was derived from Regulation (EU) 2016/127, which states the mandatory addition of DHA to IF and FOF at the level of 20–50 mg/100 kcal. The intake of DHA resulting from the use of the NF in IF and FOF is not expected to pose safety concerns. S. limacinum was attributed the qualified presumption of safety (QPS) status with the qualification ‘for production purposes only’. Data provided by the applicant demonstrated the absence of viable cells in the NF. No toxicological studies were performed with the NF. However, based on the available toxicological data on oils derived from Schizochytrium sp., the QPS status of the source of the NF, the production process, the composition of the NF and the absence of viable cells in the NF, the Panel considers there are no concerns with regard to toxicity of the NF. The Panel concludes that the NF is safe under the proposed conditions of use.
