Note: This variation will be published in the Commonwealth of Australia Gazette No. FSC 134 on 28 July 2020. This means that this date is the gazettal date for the purposes of clause 3 of the variation. |
This instrument is the Food Standards (Application A1183 – Enzymatic production of Rebaudioside E) Variation.
The Schedule varies Standards in the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code.
The variation commences on the date of gazettal.
[1] Schedule 3 is varied by omitting subparagraph S3—35(2)(d)(iii), substituting
(iii) a sucrose synthase (EC 2.4.1.13) sourced from Escherichia coli;
(e) by enzymatic conversion of purified stevia leaf extract to produce rebaudioside E using a protein engineered enzyme that:
(i) contains both of the following components:
(A) UDP‑glucosyltransferase; and
(B) sucrose synthase (EC 2.4.1.13); and
(ii) is sourced from Pichia pastoris strain UGT-A.
[2] Schedule 18 is varied by inserting in the table to subsection S18—9(3), in alphabetical order
