经过评估,专家小组认为该添加剂对目标物种、消费者和环境都是安全的。部分原文报道如下:
Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose and methyl cellulose as technological feed additives for all animal species. In its previous opinions on the safety and efficacy of the products, the FEEDAP Panel could not co
nclude on proper identification and characterisation as required for a feed additive. The occurrence of potential toxic impurities could also not be assessed. ba
sed on the new data provided, the feed additives hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose and methyl cellulose were properly identified and characterised and were shown to meet the specifications set for the food additives. Therefore, the co
nclusions of the safety assessments reached in the previous opinions for hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose and methyl cellulose meeting the food additive specifications, apply to the hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose and methyl cellulose under assessment as feed additives. The additives are co
nsidered safe for all animal species, the co
nsumer and the environment. In the absence of data, the FEEDAP Panel is not in the position to co
nclude on the safety for the user.
