The food enzyme thermolysin (EC. 3.4.24.27) is produced with the non-genetically modified Anoxybacillus caldiproteolyticus strain AE-TP by Amano Enzyme Inc. A safety evaluation of this food enzyme was made previously, in which EFSA concluded that this food enzyme did not give rise to safety concerns when used in eight food manufacturing processes. Subsequently, the applicant has requested to extend its use to one additional process, to withdraw two processes and to revise the use levels. In this assessment, EFSA updated the safety evaluation of this food enzyme for use in a total of seven food manufacturing processes. The dietary exposure to the food enzyme-total organic solids (TOS) was calculated to be up to 0.989 mg TOS/kg body weight (bw) per day in European populations. When combined with the no observed adverse effect level reported in the previous opinion (700 mg TOS/kg bw per day, the mid-dose tested), the Panel derived a revised margin of exposure of at least 708. Based on the data provided for the previous evaluation and the revised margin of exposure in the present evaluation, the Panel concluded that this food enzyme does not give rise to safety concerns under the revised intended conditions of use.
