Notice of Modification to the List of Permitted Food Enzymes to Enable the Use of Cellulase from Trichoderma reesei QM9414 in Apricot, Peach and Pear Nectars and Unstandardized Fruit and Vegetable Products

Canada

Oct 29, 2020

Health Canada's Food Directorate completed a premarket safety assessment of a food additive submission seeking approval for the use of cellulase from Trichoderma reesei QM9414 in standardized single-strength fruit juices, standardized and unstandardized fruit nectars, and unstandardized fruit and vegetable products.

Cellulase from T. reesei QM9414 is already permitted for use in Canada as a food enzyme in standardized single-strength fruit juices, so this requested use did not require further consideration by Health Canada.

Health Canada has enabled the use of this enzyme from this source described in the information document below by modifying the List of Permitted Food Enzymes, effective October 22, 2020
