据了解，这种食品酶是由非转基因绳状青霉菌株DP‐Lzc35生产的，旨在用于蒸馏酒精的生产，烘烤和酿造过程。

 

　　经过评估，专家小组认为，在预期的使用条件下，不能排除饮食暴露引起过敏和诱发反应的风险，但这种情况发生的可能性很低。根据提供的数据，小组得出结论，该食品酶在预期的使用条件下不会引起安全隐患。部分原文报道如下：

 

　　The food enzyme cellulase (4‐(1,3;1,4)‐β‐d‐glucan 4‐glucanohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.4) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Penicillium funiculosum strain Lzc35 by Danisco US Inc. The cellulase is intended to be used in distilled alcohol production, baking and brewing processes. Since residual amounts of total organic solids (TOS) are removed by distillation, dietary exposure was only calculated for baking and brewing processes. based on the proposed maximum use levels, dietary exposure to the food enzyme–TOS was estimated to be up to 0.416 mg TOS/kg body weight (bw) per day. Genotoxicity tests did not raise a safety concern. The systemic toxicity was assessed by means of a repeated dose 90‐day oral toxicity study in rats. The Panel identified a no observed adverse effect level of 84 mg TOS/kg bw per day, the highest dose tested, which when compared with the estimated dietary exposure, resulted in a margin of exposure of at least 200. Similarity of the amino acid sequence of the food enzyme to those of known allergens was searched and no match was found. The Panel considered that, under the intended conditions of use, the risk of allergic sensitisation and elicitation reactions by dietary exposure cannot be excluded, but the likelihood is considered to be low. based on the data provided, the Panel concluded that this food enzyme does not give rise to safety concerns under the intended conditions of use.
