欧盟评估猪肝中过氧化氢酶的安全性

据了解，该食品酶旨在用于奶酪生产中分解盐水中的过氧化氢。

经过评估，专家小组认为该食品酶不符合欧盟的现有要求。部分原文报道如下：

The food enzyme catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) is obtained from porcine liver by Laboratorios Arroyo S.A. It is intended to be used in a broad range of food processes. The Panel noted that the manufacturing process involved the use of a solvent not permitted in the production of food ingredients which include food enzymes. In addition, the evidence provided showed that the manufacturing process could not be guaranteed to inactivate viruses originating from the starting material, including the human zoonotic pathogen Hepatitis E virus. Consequently, the Panel concluded that the use of catalase extracted from porcine liver may present a health risk.
