Final screening assessment for Aspergillus oryzae ATCC 11866 .: En14-267/2017E-PDF

"Pursuant to paragraph 74(b) of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA), the Minister of the Environment and the Minister of Health have conducted a screening assessment on A. oryzae strain ATCC 11866. A. oryzae ATCC 11866 is a fungus that is a member of the Aspergillus flavus group and has characteristics in common with two members of that group, A. oryzae and A. flavus. Based on the information available, it is concluded that A. oryzae ATCC 11866 does not meet the criteria under paragraph 64(a) or (b) of CEPA as it is not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that have or may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment or its biological diversity or that constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which life depends. It is also concluded that A. oryzae ATCC 11866 does not meet the criteria under paragraph 64(c) of CEPA as it is not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that constitute or may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health"--Synopsis, p. iv, v.
