Cited from the statement:

"The undersigned, Dr. Roy Pieters, occupational physician of ArboUnie, responsible for health care at DSM Gist B.V. in, hereby certifies that:

-        Vinasses and Yeast extracts from Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been produced already for decades on this site

-        There is a close monitoring system in place for employees, considering health effects a.o. sensitization

-        None of the employees working with the above mentioned products have reported any allergic reactions

Since most employees have been working in this factory for many years, one could have expected that sensitization would have occurred in at least some cases, if yeast extracts and vinasses would have been potent sensitisers"
