LegalizeCommission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/805 of 17 May 2019 concerning the authorisation of a preparation of muramidase produced by Trichoderma reesei DSM 32338 as a feed additive for chickens for fattening and minor poultry species for fattening (holder of authorisation DSM Nutritional Products Ltd, represented in EU by DSM Nutritional Products Sp. Z o.o) (Text with EEA relevance.)
Article 1
The preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’ and to the functional group ‘other zootechnical additives’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition, subject to the conditions laid down in the Annex.
Article 2
This 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.

| 4d16 | Novozymes A/S | Muramidase (EC 3.2.1.17) | Additive composition Preparation of muramidase (EC 3.2.1.17) (lysozyme) produced by Trichoderma reesei (DSM 32338) having a minimum activity of 60 000 LSU(F)/g (1) Solid and liquid forms Characterisation of the active substance Muramidase (EC 3.2.1.17) (lysozyme) produced by Trichoderma reesei (DSM 32338) Method of analysis (2) For the quantification of muramidase: fluorescence-based enzyme assay method that determines the enzyme-catalysed depolymerisation of a fluorescein-labelled peptidoglycan preparation at pH 6,0 and 30 °C. | Chickens for fattening Minor poultry species for fattening | — | 25 000 LSU(F) | — | 1. In the directions for use of the additive and premixtures, the storage conditions and stability to heat treatment shall be indicated. 2. For users of the additive and premixtures, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address potential risks from their use. Where those risks cannot be eliminated or reduced to a minimum by such procedures and measures, the additive and premixtures shall be used with personal protective equipment including skin and breathing protections. | 9 June 2029 |
| (1) One LSU(F) unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that increases the fluorescence of 12,5 μg/ml fluorescein-labelled peptidoglycan per minute at pH 6,0 and 30 °C by a value that corresponds to the fluorescence of approximately 0,06 nmol fluorescein isothiocyanate isomer I. (2) 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 |
