Safety and efficacy of a feed additive consisting of phenylcapsaicin (aXiphen) for chickens for fattening (aXichem AB)

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of phenylcapsaicin (aXiphen) as zootechnical feed additive (other zootechnical) for chickens for fattening. The additive is already authorised as a novel food.

High‐Index, Low‐Loss Optical Material Platforms for Ultra‐Broadband Ultraviolet‐to‐Visible Achromatic Metalenses

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 49, 18 June 2026.
An integrated material platform combining engineered SiNx thin films and printable ZrO2 nanoparticle‐embedded resin enables broadband achromatic metalenses from the ultraviolet to visible range. The demonstrated meta‐optics achieve near‐diffraction‐limited focusing with minimal chromatic aberration.

Biohazard in Clinical Laboratories in Japan

Journal of the Japanese Association for Infectious Diseases, 1991
This survey of occupationally acquired infections in clinical laboratory workers was made by questionnaires to 306 hospitals in which 698 doctors and 8654 technicians worked. There were 177 probable infections during the previous decade (1979-88). In both doctors and technicians annual incidence rate of infection was 0.2% on an average.

A vaccination programme combining a live attenuated Salmonella Typhimurium and an autogenous inactivated Salmonella Enteritidis vaccine confers protection and reduces ovarian colonisation with the Salmonella Enteritidis isolate 7A, PT12

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 6, Page 395-403, June 2026.
Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (SE) can colonise chicken ovaries and contaminate eggs, posing a global risk of human gastroenteritis, often linked to raw or undercooked eggs. Control options for SE outbreaks in Australia are limited; autogenous SE vaccines are commonly used, while live attenuated Salmonella Typhimurium (ST) vaccines are ...

Dominance and toxicity without lethality: Exploring biomass, cyanometabolites, and Daphnia responses across Cyanobacterial strains

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 801-817, June 2026.
Abstract Cyanobacteria are cosmopolitan, important components of biomass with a remarkable ability to synthesize a diverse array of bioactive compounds, some of which may have toxic effects on other organisms and ecosystems. In this study, filamentous cyanobacterial strains isolated predominantly from temperate European freshwaters (Aphanizomenon ...

Pro-Apoptotic and Cytotoxic Effects of Melittin on HL-60 Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Cells: Implications for Retinoid-Independent Therapy

Molecules
Background: Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia driven by the PML/RARα fusion protein. Standard treatment with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) combined with chemotherapy is effective, but resistance and adverse ...

Minimizing Occupational Exposure to Biohazards [PDF]

Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2007
Exposure to body fluids via needlestick injury or otherwise is a risk inherent to interventional radiology. Although the incidence of occupational exposure to biohazards appears to be decreasing in the era of universal precautions, in IR, safety needles are the exception rather than the rule. In the United States, hepatitis C and human immunodeficiency

Safety assessment of the process Bandera Twin used to recycle post‐consumer PET into food contact materials

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials (FCM) assessed the safety of the Bandera Twin recycling process (EU register number RECYC341). The input is washed and dried poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) flakes mainly originating from collected post‐consumer PET containers, with no more than 5% PET from non‐food consumer applications.
