2024年5月27日，欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）发布消息，欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）发布关于植物乳杆菌（Lactiplantibacillus plantarum）ATCC PTA-6139 作为所有动物饲料添加剂的授权更新申请的评估。
经过评估，专家小组得出结论，该添加剂在授权使用条件下对所有动物物种、消费者和环境都是安全的。在授权更新的情况下，无需评估添加剂的功效。部分原文报道如下：
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the assessment of the application for renewal of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus plantarum) ATCC PTA-6139 as a technological additive (functional group: silage additive) for all animal species. The applicant has provided evidence that the additive currently on the market complies with the existing conditions of authorisation. The EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concluded that the additive remains safe for all animal species, consumers and the environment. Regarding user safety, the Panel concluded that owing to the nature of the additive, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ATCC PTA-6139 should be considered a potential skin and respiratory sensitiser, and that any exposure through the skin and respiratory tract is considered a risk. The Panel could not conclude on the eye irritation potential of the additive due to the lack of data. There is no need for assessing the efficacy of the additive in the context of the renewal of the authorisation.
