Genetically modified microorganisms have great application potential in the food industry. They can improve production efficiency, ensure a stable supply of food ingredients, innovate food types, and produce food ingredients that better meet consumer needs. With the announcement of the safety assessment requirements for genetically modified microorganisms by the National Food Safety Assessment Center on September 13, 2024, it is expected that in 2025, many new food ingredients produced by related genetically modified microorganisms will be accepted, such as N-acetylglucosamine, ergothioneine, etc.
Beijing Cheng Kang Genetically Modified Microorganism Safety Assessment Center specializes in genetically modified food ingredient declaration services, with obvious professional technical advantages and expert resource accumulation. If you need professional food compliance guidance or agency services such as China's new food ingredients, new food additive varieties, etc., please feel free to contact us at any time.
