However, as the food safety authorities are issuing standards for enzyme consumption, the consumers have started accepting the products treated with GM enzymes.
- The demand for processed and packaged foods is growing with the need to provide food security and safety. However, due to complexities in the global food supply chain, there is a need to add food additives to keep intact the nutritional content and maintain the shelf life.
