Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of carrageenan as a feed additive for pets and other non-food-producing animals. The additive is manufactured in two forms, refined and semi-refined carrageenan. Owing the lack of information, the FEEDAP Panel is not in the position to conclude on safety of the additives for pets and other non-food-producing animals and for the user. The FEEDAP Panel concludes that the additive is efficacious as a gelling agent, thickener and contributes to stabilise canned pet feed. No conclusion can be drawn on the efficacy of the additive as a binder and emulsifier.
应欧盟委员会的要求，欧洲食品安全局被要求就角叉菜胶作为宠物和其他非食品生产动物饲料添加剂的安全性和有效性发表科学意见。该添加剂有两种形式，即精制角叉菜胶和半精制角叉菜胶。由于缺乏信息，饲料添加剂和动物营养产品专家小组无法就该添加剂对宠物和其他非食品生产动物以及使用者的安全性得出结论。饲料添加剂和动物营养产品专家小组得出结论，该添加剂作为胶凝剂、增稠剂是有效的，有助于稳定罐装宠物饲料。关于该添加剂作为粘合剂和乳化剂的有效性无法得出结论。
