Update of the list of QPS‐recommended biological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 12: suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until March 2020
(Wiley Open Access, 2020-07-02)
The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) was developed to provide a generic safety evaluation for biological agents to support EFSA's Scientific Panels. It is based on an assessment of the taxonomic ...
The public health risk posed by Listeria monocytogenes in frozen fruit and vegetables including herbs, blanched during processing
(Wiley Open Access, 2020-04-20)
A multi‐country outbreak of Listeria monocytogenes ST6 linked to blanched frozen vegetables (bfV) took place in the EU (2015–2018). Evidence of food‐borne outbreaks shows that L. monocytogenes is the ...
Active packaging applications for food
(Wiley, 2017-11-28)
The traditional role of food packaging is continuing to evolve in response to changing market needs. Current drivers such as consumer's demand for safer, “healthier,” and higher‐quality foods, ideally ...
Development of High-Protein Vegetable Creams by Using Single-Cell Ingredients from Some Microalgae Species
(MDPI, 2021-10-22)
The aim of this paper was to develop high-protein vegetable creams through the incorporation of microalgae. Single-cell ingredients from Arthrospiraplatensis (spirulina), Chlorella vulgaris, Tetraselmis ...
Current and emerging trends in cereal snack bars: implications for new product development
(Taylor and Francis, 2022-02-20)
The change in consumers’ lifestyle promoted “snackification” favouring the commercialisation of on-the-go products such as cereal bars (CBs). Manufacturers are encountering challenges to develop healthy, ...
On-line Ham Grading using pattern recognition models based on available data in commercial pig slaughterhouses
(Elsevier, 2018-04-13)
The thickness of the subcutaneous fat in hams is one of the most important factors for the dry-curing process and largely determines its final quality. This parameter is usually measured in slaughterhouses ...
Maximum levels of cross-contamination for 24 antimicrobial active substances in non-target feed. Part 6: Macrolides: tilmicosin, tylosin and tylvalosin
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-10-26)
The specific concentrations of tilmicosin, tylosin and tylvalosin in non-target feed for food-producing animals, below which there would not be an effect on the emergence of, and/or selection for, ...
Update of the list of qualified presumption of safety (QPS) recommended microbiological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 19: Suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until September 2023
(Wiley Open Access, 2024-01-11)
The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a safety assessment approach for microorganisms intended for use in food or feed chains. The QPS approach is based on an ...
Enhancing energy bars with microalgae: A study on nutritional, physicochemical and sensory properties
(Elsevier, 2023-09-07)
Energy bars are popular meal supplements due to their convenience and high nutritional content. Microalgae, such as Spirulina and Chlorella Vulgaris, are appealing food ingredients containing high-quality ...
Assessing the Impact of Different Technological Strategies on the Fate of Salmonella in Chicken Dry-Fermented Sausages by Means of Challenge Testing and Predictive Models
(MDPI, 2023-02-08)
Salmonella is the main relevant pathogen in chicken dry-fermented sausages (DFS). The
safety of shelf-stable DFS must rely on the production process, which should not only prevent
growth but promote ...
