Safety evaluation of a food enzyme with glucan 1,4‐α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase activities from the genetically modified Aspergillus niger strain NZYM‐BX

Abstract The food enzyme with glucan 1,4‐α‐glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.3) and α‐amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) activities is produced with the genetically modified strain of Aspergillus niger NZYM‐BX by Novozymes A/S. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns. The food enzyme is free from viable...
