Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is ubiquitous in nature and naturally occuring in all environmental compartments and animals. soil organisms are continuously and naturally exposed to Saccharomyces cerevisiae. No toxicity of yeast and yeast extract is expected in all environmental comparments.
