據(jù)了解，這種食品酶來自小牛的皺胃，旨在用于奶酪生產(chǎn)的牛奶加工中。

 

　　經(jīng)過評估，專家小組認(rèn)為，在預(yù)期的使用條件下，不能排除通過飲食接觸引起的過敏性致敏和誘發(fā)反應(yīng)的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，但這種情況發(fā)生的可能性很低。根據(jù)所提供的數(shù)據(jù)，小組得出結(jié)論，該食品酶在預(yù)期的使用條件下不會引起安全問題。部分原文報(bào)道如下：

 

　　The food enzyme containing chymosin (EC 3.4.23.4) and pepsin A (EC 3.4.23.1) is prepared from the abomasum of calves by RENCO New Zealand. The food enzyme is intended to be used in milk processing for cheese production. As no concerns arise from the animal source of the food enzyme or from its manufacture and based on the history of safe use and consumption, the Panel considered that toxicological data were not required, and the estimation of dietary exposure was unnecessary. On the basis of literature data, the Panel considered that the risk of allergic sensitisation and elicitation reactions by dietary exposure could not be excluded, but the likelihood for this to occur was considered to be low. The Panel concluded that this food enzyme does not give rise to safety concerns under the intended conditions of use.
