E 960b STEVIOL GLYCOSIDES FROM FERMENTATION (YARROWIA LIPOLYTICA)

Synonyms
Definition

Steviol glycosides from Yarrowia lipolytica consist of a mixture predominantly composed of rebaudioside M, with some rebaudioside D, and smaller amounts of rebaudioside A and rebaudioside B. The manufacturing process comprises two main phases.

The first phase involves fermentation of a non-toxigenic non-pathogenic strain of Yarrowia lipolytica VRM that has been genetically modified with heterologous genes to overexpress steviol glycosides. Removal of biomass by solid-liquid separation and heat treatment is followed by concentration of the steviol glycosides.

The second phase involves purification by employing ion-exchange chromatography, followed by recrystallisation of the steviol glycosides resulting in a final product containing not less than 95% of rebaudiosides M, D, A, and B.

Viable cells or the DNA of Yarrowia lipolytica VRM must not be detected in the food additive.
