That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. (3)  The application concerns the authorisation of the enzyme preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (ATCC PTA 5588), subtilisin produced by Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 2107) and alpha- amylase produced by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (ATCC 3978) as a feed additive for chickens for fattening, turkeys for fattening and ducks, to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’. (4)  The Authority concluded in its opinions of 17 June 2009 (3  that  the enzyme  preparation  of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (ATCC PTA 5588), subtilisin produced by Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 2107) and alpha-amylase produced by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (ATCC 3978) does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment and that the use of that preparation improves the performance of the animals.
