Update of the list of qualified presumption of safety (QPS) recommended microbiological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 24: Suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until March 2026

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 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 knowledge and safety of microorganisms intentionally added to the food and feed chain.

Sustainable Applications of Thymol: Advances in Formulation Technologies, Drug Delivery Systems, and Food Preservation Strategies

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Thymol is a natural monoterpene with antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and anticancer activities relevant to food and biomedical applications. Its poor solubility and instability can be improved through nanodelivery systems. Thymol also supports sustainable food preservation and active packaging, although further clinical validation and ...

Invasive Fungal Infections After Intestine Transplantation: Epidemiology and Outcomes

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) represent a major complication after intestine transplantation, with reported incidence rates between 40% and 49%. These infections are associated with high morbidity and allograft loss. This study evaluates the impact of post‐transplant IFIs on graft outcomes in intestine transplant recipients ...

In vitro antifungal susceptibility patterns of planktonic and sessile Candida kefyr clinical isolates [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2017
The activity of fluconazole, amphotericin B, caspofungin and micafungin was determined using XTT-based fungal damage assays against planktonic cells, early and mature biofilms of Candida kefyr. Median MICs of planktonic cells were 0.25 mg/l, 0.25 mg/l, 0.5 mg/l, and 0.06 mg/l for fluconazole, amphotericin B, caspofungin, and micafungin, respectively ...
