Risk assessment of Retithrips syriacus for the EU
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a quantitative risk assessment for the EU of Retithrips syriacus (Mayet) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), a polyphagous thrips, regarded as a tropical/subtropical pest occurring in several countries of Africa, South America, Asia and in the EU in Cyprus.

Potential Nutrition and Health Claims in Deastringed Persimmon Fruits (Diospyros kaki L.), Variety ‘Rojo Brillante’, PDO ’Ribera del Xúquer’ [PDF]
In Europe, nutrition and health claims made on food must be based on scientific evidence, which means a comprehensive evaluation by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) prior to authorisation. Processed foods are subject to numerous claims derived from the presence of bioactive compounds; however, natural food products, often the original sources ...

Cultivated persimmon (Diosspyros kaki Thunb.) is a hexaploid (mostly) or a nonaploid with high heterozygosity, hindering molecular genetic studies on proanthocyanidin (PA) metabolism, which is a major trait for persimmon astringency. Recently, one of its

Discrimination of astringent and deastringed hard ‘Rojo Brillante’ persimmon fruit using a sensory threshold by means of hyperspectral imaging [PDF]
[EN] Persimmon fruit cv. 'Rojo Brillante' is an astringent cultivar due to its content of soluble tannins, which are insolubilised during the ripening of the fruit. Traditionally, the consumption of this cultivar has only been possible when the fruit is overripe and the texture is soft.

We investigated the effect of PE film thickness on the modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) deastringency of ‘Sanggamdungsi’ (Diospyros kaki cv.) astringent persimmon at room temperature (25°C) and low temperature (-1°C). The fruits were individually packaged with PE film of which the thickness is 60, 80, 100, 115 or 130 μm and stored ...

Pollination-constant non-astringent (PCNA) persimmons have significant commercial value due to their natural de-astringency trait. The Chinese PCNA (C-PCNA) type is particularly valuable for genetic improvement because this trait is controlled by ...

Manifestation of flesh browning while commercialising 'Rojo Brillante' persimmon is one of the main causes of postharvest loss. It is known that mechanical damage is a decisive factor for browning development and that astringent fruit is less sensitive to this disorder than fruit submitted to a CO2 deastringency treatment under standard conditions (24h,

Aronia melanocarpa puree is rich in anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins, but its pronounced tannin-derived astringency limits product acceptance. This study developed a non-removal astringency-modulation strategy using food-grade L-proline and evaluated ...
