據了解，這種食品酶來自豬肝，旨在用於廣泛的食品加工。

 

　　經過評估，專家小組得出結論，該食品酶可能會對健康造成風險。部分原文報道如下：

 

　　The food enzyme catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) is obtained from porcine liver by Laboratorios Arroyo S.A. It is intended to be used in a broad range of food processes. The Panel noted that the manufacturing process involved the use of a solvent not permitted in the production of food ingredients which include food enzymes. In addition, the evidence provided showed that the manufacturing process could not be guaranteed to inactivate viruses originating from the starting material, including the human zoo notic pathogen Hepatitis E virus. Consequently, the Panel co ncluded that the use of catalase extracted from porcine liver may present a health risk.
