经过评估，专家小组认为在建议的使用条件下该添加剂对目标物种、消费者和环境都是安全的。部分原文报道如下：

 

　　Following a request from the European Commission, the European Food Safety Authority was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety of xanthan gum as a technological feed additive for all animal species, with the exception of cats and aquatic species. Xanthan gum, produced with Xanthomonas campestris ATCC SD-7012, CNCM I-4861, DSM 23730 and ■■■■■, does not pose any safety concern associated with the production strains. The FEEDAP Panel concluded that the additive is safe for all target animal species under application. The use of xanthan gum in animal nutrition did not pose any concern for consumer safety. Additionally, the use of this additive was considered safe for the environment. Regarding the user safety, the additive is not a skin irritant or a skin sensitiser. The FEEDAP Panel cannot conclude on the eye irritation potential due to the lack of data.
