?Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) is calling for comment on A1301 – Triacylglycerol lipase from GM Komagataella phaffii as a processing aid. This is an application to amend the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code to permit the use of an enzyme from a genetically modified (GM) microorganism as a processing aid in bread and bakery products.
The enzyme, triacylglycerol lipase, is sourced from GM Komagataella phaffii (K. phaffi) containing the triacylglycerol lipase gene from Fusarium oxysporum. Its use improves the crumb structure, volume and shape of bread and bakery products.
K. phaffii has a long history of safe use as a production microorganism of enzyme processing aids, including several that are already permitted in Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code.
Based on FSANZ’s assessment, no public health and safety concerns were identified under the proposed use conditions.
