2024年7月24日，欧盟食品安全局就一种食品酶三酰甘油脂肪酶（triacylglycerol lipase）的安全性评价发布意见。
据了解，这种食品酶是由非转基因少根根霉菌株AE-TL(B)生产的，旨在用于6种食品生产过程。
经过评估，专家小组得出结论，这种食品酶在预期使用条件下不会引起安全问题。部分原文报道如下：
The food enzyme triacylglycerol lipase (triacylglycerol acylhydrolase; EC 3.1.1.3) is produced with the non-genetically modified Rhizopus arrhizus strain AE-TL(B) by Amano Enzyme Inc. A safety evaluation of this food enzyme was made previously, in which EFSA concluded that this food enzyme did not give rise to safety concerns when used in two food manufacturing processes. Subsequently, the applicant requested to extend its use to include four additional processes and to revise the use levels. In this assessment, EFSA updated the safety evaluation of this food enzyme when used in a total of six food manufacturing processes. As the food enzyme-total organic solids (TOS) are removed from one food manufacturing process, the dietary exposure to the food enzyme-TOS was estimated only for the remaining five processes. Dietary exposure was calculated to be up to 0.086 mg TOS/kg body weight (bw) per day in European populations. When combined with the no observed adverse effect level reported in the previous opinion (1960 mg TOS/kg bw per day, the highest dose tested), the Panel derived a margin of exposure of at least 22,791. based on the data provided for the previous evaluation and the revised margin of exposure in the present evaluation, the Panel concluded that this food enzyme does not give rise to safety concerns under the revised intended conditions of use.
