Stereoisomers of Colourless Carotenoids from the Marine Microalga Dunaliella salina [PDF]
Carotenoids comprise a diverse range of naturally occurring stereoisomers, which differ in their physico-chemical properties. Their biosynthesis begins with phytoene, which is a rarity among carotenoids because it is colourless.

Evaluation of Essential Oils as Sprout Suppressants for Potato (Solanum tuberosum) at Room Temperature Storage [PDF]
Chlorpropham (CIPC) has been the dominant method of chemical sprout suppression for the last half-century. However, stricter regulations including outright bans on its use in several countries has prompted investigation into alternative products to ...

Prioritisation of pesticides and target organ systems for dietary cumulative risk assessment based on the 2019-2021 monitoring cycle. [PDF]
Abstract Aiming at accelerating the implementation of cumulative risk assessment to pesticide residues, this report describes a two‐step prioritisation analysis, on individual pesticides and on target organ systems, that allows to identify (i) low‐priority substances expected to have a marginal contribution to cumulative risk, and (ii) high priority ...

Biological factors and production challenges drive significant UK fruit and vegetable loss. [PDF]
Abstract BACKGROUND Food loss and waste estimates are highly inconsistent as a result of methodological and systemic differences. Additionally, the absence of in‐depth evidence surrounding the biological drivers of food loss and waste precludes targeted mitigation action.

Statement on the maximum residue level for propamocarb in lettuces. [PDF]
Abstract In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, EFSA received a mandate from the European Commission to provide a statement on the maximum residue level (MRL) of propamocarb in lettuces. EFSA was mandated to identify a safe fall‐back MRL in lettuces since, for the current MRL of 40 mg/kg, acute consumer intake concerns could not ...
