Safety evaluation of the food enzyme cellulase from the genetically modified Trichoderma reesei strain NZYM-FS
Safety Classified by Officially
The food enzyme cellulase (4‐(1,3; 1,4)‐β‐d‐glucan‐4‐glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.4) is produced with the genetically modified Trichoderma reesei strain NZYM‐FS by Novozymes A/S. The genetic modifications did not give rise to safety concerns. The food enzyme was considered free from viable cells of the production organism and its DNA. It is intended to be used in four food manufacturing processes. Since residual amounts of food enzyme–total organic solids (TOS) are removed in two processes, dietary exposure was calculated for the remaining two food manufacturing processes.
