Ingredient List
30.01 Fumonisin Esterase—The food additive fumonisin esterase may be safely used to degrade fumonisins in swine and poultry feed in accordance with the following prescribed conditions: (a) Fumonisin esterase, a carboxylesterase
is produced by a nontoxigenic and nonpathogenic yeast, Komagataella phaffii, genetically engineered to express the fumonisin esterase gene from the bacterium Sphingopyxis sp. Hydrolyzed fumonisin and two tricarballylic acid molecules are the reaction products of fumonisin hydrolysis by this 493 amino acid fumonisin esterase enzyme. (b) The additive shall meet the following specifications: (1) The fermentation media for the Komagataella phaffii shall not contain methanol. (2) Viable genetically
