For Packaged food and beverages: Conformity: Must meet the conditions of Rennet (animal-derived) and chymosin preparation (fermentation-derived) (21 CFR 184.1685) may be used in food only as the section provides: the specifications, the foods and the limits written in § 184.1685.. In force since 23 Mar 1990.
The section's conditions of use (foods, limits, specifications, labelling) are written in § 184.1685 and are not broken down here. Section text as written: "(2) Chymosin preparation is a clear solution containing the active enzyme chymosin (E.C. 3.4.23.4). It is derived, via fermentation, from a nonpathogenic and nontoxigenic strain of Escherichia coli K-12 containing the prochymosin gene. The prochymosin is isolated as an insoluble aggregate that is acid-treated to destroy residual cellular material and, after solubilization, is acid-treated to form chymosin. It must be processed with materials that are generally recognized as safe, or are food additives that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for this use. (3) Chymosin".
“§ 184.1685 Rennet (animal-derived) and chymosin preparation (fermentation-derived). (a)(1) Rennet and bovine rennet are commercial extracts containing the active enzyme rennin (CAS Reg. No. 9001-98-3), also known as chymosin (International Union of Biochemistry Enzyme Commission (E.C.) 3.4.23.4).
