Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1138/2014of 27 October 2014concerning the authorisation of a preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Talaromyces versatilis sp. nov. IMI CC 378536 as a feed additive for sows (holder of the authorisation Adisseo France S.A.S.)(Text with EEA relevance) THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 on additives for use in animal nutritionOJ L 268, 18.10.2003, p. 29., and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,Whereas:(1)In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 an application was submitted for the authorisation of a preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Talaromyces versatilis sp. nov. IMI CC 378536. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.(2)That application concerns the authorisation of a preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Talaromyces versatilis sp. nov. IMI CC 378536 as a feed additive for sows to be classified in the additive category "zootechnical additives".(3)A preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Talaromyces versatilis sp. nov. IMI CC 378536 was authorised for 10 years for poultry, weaned piglets and pigs for fattening by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 290/2014Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 290/2014 of 21 March 2014 concerning the authorisation of a preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and endo-1,3(4)-beta- glucanase produced by Talaromyces versatilis sp. nov. IMI CC 378536 as a feed additive for poultry, weaned piglets and pigs for fattening and amending Regulations (EC) No 1259/2004, (EC) No 943/2005, (EC) No 1206/2005 and (EC) No 322/2009 (holder of the authorisation Adisseo France S.A.S.) (OJ L 87, 22.3.2014, p. 84)..(4)The European Food Safety Authority ("the Authority") concluded in its opinion of 20 May 2014EFSA Journal 2014; 12(6):3722. that, under the proposed conditions of use, the preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase EC 3.2.1.8 and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase EC 3.2.1.6 produced by Talaromyces versatilis sp. nov. IMI CC 378536 does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.(5)The Authority also determined that the results of the meta-analysis showed that supplementing sows' diets with the additive at the recommended dose resulted in a statistically significant lower body weight loss of the sows during lactation, without affecting the other parameters evaluated. Since the low level of weight reduction, questioned by the Authority because of lack of biological/physiological relevance, was judged a significant zootechnical parameter, it was considered that the provided in vivo studies meet the conditions for the demonstration of the efficacy in lactating sows.(6)The assessment of the preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase EC 3.2.1.8 and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase EC 3.2.1.6 produced by Talaromyces versatilis sp. nov. IMI CC 378536 shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of that preparation should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.(7)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1AuthorisationThe preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category "zootechnical additives" and to the functional group "digestibility enhancers", is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition, subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
Article 2This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.Done at Brussels, 27 October 2014.For the CommissionThe PresidentJosé Manuel BarrosoANNEX
1 VU (viscosimetry unit) is the amount of enzyme which hydrolyzes the substrate (barley betaglucan and wheat arabinoxylan, respectively), reducing the viscosity of the solution, to give a change in relative fluidity of 1 (dimensionless unit)/min at 30 °C and pH 5,5.Details of the analytical methods are available at the following address of the Reference Laboratory: https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/eurl/feed-additives/evaluation-reports
