The applications concern the authorisation of Lactobacillus buchneri (DSM 16774), Lactobacillus buchneri (DSM 12856), Lactobacillus paracasei (DSM 16245), Lactobacillus paracasei (DSM 16773), Lactobacillus plantarum (DSM 12836), Lactobacillus plantarum (DSM 12837), Lactobacillus brevis (DSM 12835), Lactobacillus rhamnosus (NCIMB 30121), Lactococcus lactis (DSM 11037) Lactococcus lactis (NCIMB 30160), Pediococcus acidilactici (DSM 16243) and Pediococcus pentosaceus (DSM 12834) as feed additives for all animal species, to be classified in the additive category ‘technological additives’.

| (4) | The European Food Safety Authority (the Authority) concluded in its opinions of 6 September 2011 on Lactobacillus buchneri (DSM 16774) (2), Lactobacillus buchneri (DSM 12856) (3) and on Lactobacillus brevis (DSM 12835) (4), that these micro-organisms do not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment, and that they have the potential to improve the production of silage from all forages by increasing acetic production resulting in an extended aerobic stability of the silage. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additives in feed submitted by the Community Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
