　　The food enzyme ��‐amylase (1,4�?alpha;‐d‐glucan glucanohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.1) is produced with the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain DP‐Dzb52 by Danisco US Inc. The production strain co ntains multiple copies of an antimicrobial resistance gene. However, ba sed on the absence of viable cells and DNA from the production organism in the food enzyme, this is not co nsidered to be a risk. The ��‐amylase is intended to be used in starch processing for the production of glucose syrups, brewing processes and distilled alcohol production. Since residual amounts of the food enzyme are removed by the purification steps applied during the production of glucose syrups and distillation, no dietary exposure was calculated. ba sed on the maximum use levels recommended for the brewing processes and individual data from the EFSA Comprehensive European Food Co nsumption Databa se, dietary exposure to the enzyme�Ctotal organic solids (TOS) was estimated to be up to 0.145 TOS/kg body weight per day in European populations. The toxicity studies were carried out with another ��‐amylase from B. licheniformis strain DP‐Dzb54, co nsidered by the Panel as a suitable substitute. Toxicological tests indicated that there was no co ncern with respect to genotoxicity or systemic toxicity. A no observed adverse effect level was identified in rats which, compared with the dietary exposure, results in a margin of exposure of at least 750. A search for similarity of the amino acid sequence to known allergens was made and one match was found. The Panel co nsidered that, under the intended co nditions of use, the risk of allergic sensitisation and elicitation reactions can be excluded in distilled alcohol production and is co nsidered low when the enzyme is used in starch processing and brewing. ba sed on the data provided, the Panel co ncluded that this food enzyme does not give rise to safety co ncerns under the intended co nditions of use.
