Abstract:A safety assessment for β-galactosidase derived from Aspergillus oryzae (GODO-FAL) was performed. The test article was a concentrated, purified β-galactosidase diluted in glycerin and water with an activity of 10,000 U/mL. A series of genotoxicology tests including micronucleus assay, chromosome aberration assay, and reverse mutagenesis (Ames) assay confirmed that GODO-FAL was not clastogenic or mutagenic at any of the concentrations used, up to 2000 µg/mL for the chromosome aberration assay and 5000 mg per pl… Show more
