欧盟食品安全局就一种热处理乳制品作为新型食品的安全性发布意见

       据欧盟食品安全局消息，1月11日欧盟食品安全局就一种热处理乳制品作为新型食品的安全性发布意见。

    该乳制品以xylanisolvens DSM 23964杆菌进行发酵，发酵后产品经过75摄氏度热处理一小时，确保发酵菌死亡。

    经过评估，欧盟专家组认为，关于xylanisolvens DSM 23964菌的资料充分，在建议用途和建议的使用限量下该菌株是安全的。

    部分原文报道如下：

    Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA NDA Panel was asked to carry out the additional assessment for 'pasteurised milk products fermented with Bacteroides xylanisolvens DSM 23964' as a novel food （NF） in the context of Regulation （EC） No 258/97. Pasteurised or ultra-high-temperature-treated milk is used for the fermentation process with B. xylanisolvens DSM 23964. After fermentation the product is heat treated for one hour at 75 °C to ensure the absence of viable B. xylanisolvens DSM 23964. The Panel considers the information provided on the identity and characterisation of B. xylanisolvens DSM 23964 to be sufficient. The production process encompasses standard techniques used by the dairy industry, is sufficiently described by the applicant and does not give rise to safety concerns.
