  • Safety and efficacy of a feed additive consisting of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol produced with Saccharomyces cerevisiaeCBS 146008 for pigs and poultry for the renewal of its authorisation (DSM Nutritional Products Sp. z.o.o) [Elektronski vir]
    EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (Parma)
    Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the assessment of the application for renewal of authorisation of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol as a ... feed additive for pigs and poultry. The applicant provided data demonstrating that the additive currently in the market complies with the conditions of authorisation. The Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concludes that the additive does not give raise to any safety concern regarding the production strain. Considering that the manufacturing process, the composition of the additive and its conditions of use have not been modified, the Panel considers that there is no evidence to reconsider the conclusions reached in the previous assessments. Therefore, the Panel concludes that 25-OH-D3 remains safe for the target species, the consumer and the environment under the existing conditions of the authorisation. The additive is not irritant to the skin or eyes but no conclusion on its potential to be a skin sensitiser or on its effects on the respiratory system can be reached due to absence of data. There is no need to assess the efficacy of the additive in the context of the renewal of the authorisation.
