Subject:
European Union; breathing; dermal exposure; foliar application; inhalation exposure; plant protection; spray drift; sprayers; vines
Abstract:
... Within the European Union (EU) regulatory framework, plant protection products (PPPs) must be evaluated according to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. Bystander/resident exposures can be assessed using the current EU harmonised predictive EFSA model; however, the number of experimental data included in this model is rather limited. In the experimental study conducted, direct dermal and inhalation expo ...

Subject:
Salmonella; microbial contamination; slaughter; slaughterhouses; swine; Italy
Abstract:
... The aim of the present study was to evaluate the microbial contamination of domestic swine carcasses over an 8-year period in a slaughterhouse located in the Marche region, Central Italy. The hygiene of the slaughter process was assessed by microbiological criteria involving aerobic colony count (ACC), Enterobacteriaceae and Salmonella spp. [Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005 and amendments]. Five carca ...

Abstract:
... Nowadays, the geographical origin of camellia oil (extra virgin) can be confirmed only by chemical analysis and documental traceability. This preliminary methodological study inquires the efficacy of chemometric analysis and gas chromatography coupled to an electronic nose to provide a rapid tool for the discrimination of camellia oil from different geographical origins. This method is appropriate ...

Abstract:
... Lactoferrin is one of the most important components in milk. Lactoferrin is an 80 kDa iron-binding glycoprotein that involves a diverse range of biological activities. However, the antimicrobial properties are its most widely studied function. The aim of this study was to assay the antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities of bovine lactoferrin against five of the most important foodborne pathogeni ...

Abstract:
... Etoxazole is a systemic acaricide widely used in several crops with important significance in strawberries in order to control mites. Consequently, the presence of etoxazole residues in strawberries cannot be excluded. But, are these residues safe for the consumers and in compliance with the regulatory limits? To address these questions, the dissipation kinetics and the terminal residue of etoxazo ...

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; adulterants; adulterated products; barley flour; chemometrics; discriminant analysis; prices; rapid methods; wheat flour
Abstract:
... The quality of wheat flour (WF) is among the highest of cereal flours and therefore, it is one of the most expensive flours for manufacturing food products. In developing countries, adulteration of WF by mixing up with lower price cereal flours is often seen. Hence, the classification and determination of the adulteration quantity in WF is of great interest. The aim of this research was to evaluat ...

Abstract:
... Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PA) and PA-N-oxides (PANO) are a group of more than 660 secondary plant metabolites with hepatotoxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic effects in animals and humans. The phytotoxins can enter the food chain by transfer of PA/PANO between plants via the soil, unintended co-harvesting of PA/PANO-producing weeds, as well as by honeybees collecting pollen and nectar of these plants. ...
