Green Synthesis of Zinc Oxide and Silver Nanoparticles Using an Endophytic Aspergillus sp. and Their Antimicrobial Efficacy

Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Antimicrobial‐resistant infections are a major public health concern that requires the development of novel and alternative therapeutic approaches. Green synthesis of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) using fungi is one of the most promising methods for nano‐manufacturing. An innovative and cost‐effective way to produce metal oxide NPs involves

Update of the list of QPS‐recommended biological agents intentionally added to food or feeds as notified to EFSA

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a harmonised safety assessment approach to support EFSA Scientific Panels and Units. The QPS approach assesses the taxonomic identity, body of relevant knowledge and safety concerns of microorganisms intentionally added to the food and feed chain.
