EFSA: Scientific and technical assistance report on the evaluation of human-identical milk oligosaccharides (HiMOs) as novel foods

EFSA has published a report on the evaluation of human-identical milk oligosaccharides (HiMOs) as novel foods, which are produced, e.g., through precision fermentation.

The report concludes that currently there are no safety concerns resulting from the authorised or assessed HiMO intakes from their concurrent combined uses. Nonetheless, in consideration of the increased interest in the use of HiMOs as NFs, a simplified but realistic approach for the intake assessment is proposed in the case of new HiMOs or extensions of use of already authorised HiMOs.
