Toxicological Assessment of D-Allulose From a Novel One-Step Fermentation Process Using Genetically Modified <i>Escherichia coli</i>: A 90-Day Dietary Toxicity Study in Rats. [PDF]
D‐Allulose is a rare monosaccharide structurally similar to D‐fructose, characterized by low caloric content and relatively high sweetness. This study aimed to conduct a 90‐day oral toxicity test to systemically evaluate the potential toxicological effects of D‐allulose produced via a novel one‐step fermentation process using genetically engineered ...

Safety of D-allulose as a novel food pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. [PDF]
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on D‐allulose as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. During the risk assessment, the Panel identified a number of data gaps, which needed to be addressed by the applicant ...
