经过评估，专家小组得出结论，除了可能的过敏性以外，在建议的使用水平下，其作为新型食品是安全的。部分原文报道如下：

　　Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on partially hydrolysed protein from spent barley (Hordeum vulgare) and rice (Oryza sativa) as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. The NF is produced by enzymatically treating the pasteurised spent barley and rice residues of the mash step of beer production. Several mechanical treatment steps of the partial hydrolysate are employed to obtain the final product. The NF co nsists mainly of partially-hydrolysed proteins from spent barley and rice and it is in powdered form. The Panel notes that there are no safety co ncerns regarding the stability of the NF if the NF complies with the proposed specification limits during its entire shelf life of 15?months. The NF is proposed to be used as an ingredient in various foods such as dairy products, bakery products, pasta, fruit and vegetable spreads, snacks, and single meal replacements for weight reduction. The target population is the general population. Co nsidering protein quality aspects, the Panel co ncludes that the NF is not a suitable protein source for the nutrition of infants. The Panel notes that, co nsidering the composition of the NF, the proposed co nditions of use and that the NF will not be the sole source of dietary protein, the co nsumption of the NF is not nutritio nally disadvantageous. Taking into account the production process, the extensive compositio nal characterisation of the NF and the history of use of the source the Panel co nsiders that no toxicological studies are required on the NF. Moreover, the Panel co nsiders that the NF has the potential capacity to sensitise individuals and to induce allergic reactions in individuals allergic to barley and rice. With the exception of possible allergenicity, the Panel co ncludes that the NF is safe under the proposed uses and use levels.
