This authorisation is a renewal (with modification) of the authorisations granted under Commission Regulation (EU) No 277/2010, Commission Regulation (EU) No 891/2010 and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No886/2011. Those Regulations are revoked by regulation 7, and schedule 14, of these Regulations. The explanatory note to these Regulations sets out the modification made to those authorisations.
Enzyme activity is expressed in PPU units, where one PPU is the amount of enzyme which liberates 1 micromole (μmol) of inorganic phosphate from sodium phytate per minute at pH 5.0 and 37°C.
