Interim Marketing Authorization regarding the use of the xylanase enzyme in the production of bread, flour, whole wheat flour and unstandardized bakery products (Available in English and French; 2 pages)

Distribution date: 08 January 2007 | Final date for Comment: 23 April 2025
Health Canada has received a submission to permit the use of the xylanase enzyme from a genetically modified Aspergillus oryzae organism, Aspergillus oryzae JaL 339 (pJal 537) that carries the gene from Thermomyces lanuginosus coding for this enzyme. The xylanase enzyme will be used in the production of bread, flour, whole wheat flour and unstandardized bakery products at levels consistent with good manufacturing practice. Evaluation of available data supports the safety and effectiveness of this xylanase enzyme derived from Aspergillus oryzae JaL 339 (pJal 537). The use of this xylanase enzyme derived from this modified micro-organism will benefit the consumer through the availability of quality food products. It will also benefit industry through more efficient and improved manufacturing conditions. Therefore, it is the intention of Health Canada to recommend that the Food and Drug Regulations be amended to permit the use of this xylanase enzyme derived from the micro-organism specified above in the production of bread, flour, whole wheat flour and unstandardized bakery products at levels consistent with good manufacturing practice. As a means to improve the responsiveness of the regulatory system, an Interim Marketing Authorization (IMA) is being issued to permit the immediate use of the xylanase enzyme, as indicated above, while the regulatory process is undertaken to formally amend the Regulations. A revision to this notification will be published at the start of the amendment process and Members will be given the opportunity at that time to submit comments on this proposed measure.
Products Covered: Xylanase enzyme (ICS: 67.060)
