Occurrence of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in animal- and plant-derived food: results of a survey across Europe
(2017-09-25)
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are secondary metabolites of plant families such as Asteraceae or Boraginaceae and are suspected to be genotoxic carcinogens. Recent investigations revealed their frequent ...
Check-All-That-Apply (CATA) with semi-trained assessors: Sensory profiles closer to descriptive analysis or consumer elicited data?
(Elsevier, 2017-10-16)
Check-All-That-Apply (CATA) is a simple and fast sensory profiling tool. Yet, its application has been mainly focused on consumer studies; the aim of this study was to evaluate the application of CATA ...
Reduction of androstenone perception in pan‐fried boar meat by different masking strategies
(Wiley, 2017-10-05)
BACKGROUND
Consumers highly sensitive to androstenone María (AND) will probably reject meat from entire male pigs, which tends to have high levels of this hormone. To avoid this, the effect of different ...
MLVA subtyping of Listeria monocytogenes isolates from meat products and meat processing plants
(2017-12-22)
Listeria monocytogenes is widely distributed in meat products and the meat-processing industry thus posing a risk to consumers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the suitability of the multilocus ...
Next generation of microbiological risk assessment: Potential of omics data for exposure assessment
(Elsevier, 2017-10-04)
In food safety and public health risk evaluations, microbiological exposure assessment plays a central role as it provides an estimation of both the likelihood and the level of the microbial hazard in ...
