Health Canada's Food Directorate completed a detailed safety assessment of a food additive submission seeking approval for the use of alpha-amylase obtained from Pseudomonas fluorescens DC88 as a food enzyme in distillers' mash and in starch used in the production of dextrins, maltose, dextrose, glucose (glucose syrup) or glucose solids (dried glucose syrup)。
