Safety evaluation of the food enzyme endo‐polygalacturonase from the genetically modified Aspergillus niger strain EPG

Abstract The food enzyme endo‐polygalacturonase ((1–4)‐α‐d‐galacturonan glycanohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.15) is produced with the genetically modified Aspergillus niger strain EPG by DSM Food Specialties B.V. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns. The food enzyme is free from viabl...
