Dietary exposure of Sorbates (E 200 – 202) and Benzoates (E 210 – 213) for the Belgian population

concentrations varied widely due to the nature of the food/beverage and the specific Maximum Permitted Levels (MPL s) defined by Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008. MPL s were exceeded in 17 samples, while composite ...

Influence of reduced levels or suppression of sodium nitrite on the outgrowth and toxinogenesis of psychrotrophic Clostridium botulinum Group II type B in cooked ham.

total removal of nitrite allowed outgrowth and toxin production during storage of the processed meat product. Results showed that the maximum ingoing amount of nitrite (i.e. 150 mg/kg) that may be added ...

Position paper on the use of an “estimated acceptable concentration” (EAC) as basis for a control policy's action level for carcinogens unintentionally present in food

absence of legal maximum limits, the competent authority may act if high contamination levels that endanger public health are identified. A pragmatic approach to identify whether a value is potentially too ...

Processing factors of several pesticides and degradation products in carrots by household and industrial processing

were quantified. The washing step allowed decreasing the concentration of residues for all pesticides up to ~ 90%. It was the most effective step to remove pesticide residues from carrots. The second ...
