经过评估,专家小组得出结论,在拟议的用途和使用水平下,豌豆纤维浓缩物作为食品添加剂不存在安全问题。部分原文报道如下:
The EFSA Panel on Food Additive and Flavourings (FAF Panel) provides a scientific opinion on the safety assessment of the proposed use of pea fibre co
ncentrate (FIPEA) as a food additive. FIPEA is a powder co
nsisting mainly of dietary fibres (i.e. pectin and hemicellulose), and low amounts of protein, derived from yellow pea (P. sativum). The manufacturing process includes extensive heat treatments, (e.g. > 100C for more than 40 min), co
nditions which lead to inactivation of lectins, that in FIPEA do not pose a safety concern. A specific -amylase is used in the manufacturing, and this should be included in the definition of the proposed specifications. The Panel co
nsidered that the additio
nal co
ntribution of FIPEA to the total fibre intake in adults and toddlers would be acceptable co
nsidering the levels that are co
nsidered adequate by the NDA Panel. The Panel recommended to lower the specification limits proposed for the toxic elements. The solubility test indicates that the material does not require specific assessment at the nanoscale. No toxicological data have been submitted on FIPEA. The Panel co
nsidered that, similarly to water-soluble soybean polysaccharides, FIPEA is not absorbed intact but undergoes extensive fermentation by the intestinal microbiota in humans and is not of genotoxic concern. Dry peas (raw material) are a staple food, with a very long history of safe use in the EU. FIPEA is extracted with hot water from the insoluble fibrous material of dehulled yellow peas, therefore the structure of the fibres is not chemically modified, and no new by-products or compo
nents of toxicological co
ncern are expected from the manufacturing process. The Panel co
ncluded that there was no need for a numerical acceptable daily intake (ADI) and that pea fibre co
ncentrate (FIPEA) as a new food additive does not raise a safety co
ncern at the proposed use and use levels.
