經(jīng)過評估，由于缺乏足夠的數(shù)據(jù)，專家小組無法就添加劑對目標(biāo)物種或使用者的安全性得出結(jié)論，在提議的使用條件下，在動物營養(yǎng)中使用刺槐豆膠對消費(fèi)者安全和環(huán)境沒有影響。當(dāng)與另一種水膠體（角叉菜膠）協(xié)同使用時，該添加劑具有作為膠凝劑、增稠劑和有助于穩(wěn)定罐裝寵物飼料的潛力。在缺乏數(shù)據(jù)的情況下，評估小組無法就刺槐豆膠作為乳化劑的功效得出結(jié)論。部分原文報道如下：

 

　　Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP Panel) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of locust bean gum as a technological feed additive (functional group: emulsifiers, gelling agents, stabilisers and thickeners) for all animal species. Owing the lack of sufficient data, no conclusions could be drawn on the safety of the additive for the target species or the user. The use of locust bean gum in animal nutrition under the proposed conditions of use is of no concern for consumer safety and the environment. The Panel concluded that the additive has potential to be efficacious as gelling agent, thickener and contributes to stabilise canned pet feed when used in synergy with another hydrocolloid (carrageenan). In the absence of data, the Panel could not conclude on the efficacy of the locust bean gum as an emulsifier.
