Abstract Trust in regulatory regimes is essential for democratic legitimacy and regulatee compliance. This is particularly relevant in multilevel systems such as the European Union. This study examines the interplay of individual‐ and country‐level factors that contribute to stakeholder trust in the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA).

A screening method for ranking chemicals by their fate and behaviour in the environment and potential toxic effects in humans following non-occupational exposure [PDF]
A large number of chemicals are released intentionally or unintentionally into the environment each year. These include thousands of substances that are currently listed worldwide and several hundred new substances added annually (Mücke et al., 1986 ...

Theorizing Waste as a Technique of Power in Capitalistic Stakeholder Relations
Abstract Waste is an important socio‐ecological challenge of contemporary capitalism, contributing to climate change and environmental degradation. Despite its pervasiveness and its impacts on diverse stakeholders, it yet remains largely underexplored in management and organization studies.

Novel ionization reagent for the measurement of gas-phase ammonia and amines using a stand-alone atmospheric pressure gas chromatography (APGC) source. [PDF]
RationaleContaminants present in ambient air or in sampling lines can interfere with the target analysis through overlapping peaks or causing a high background. This study presents a positive outcome from the unexpected presence of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone,

The Vernix Caseosa is the Main Site of Dioxin Excretion in the Human Foetus
Dioxins are highly toxic to foetuses and prenatal exposure leads to adverse health effects; however, the metabolic pathways involved in dioxin excretion are poorly understood. We determined the dynamics of maternal-to-foetal dioxin transfer during normal

Enzymatic Synthesis of Polybrominated Dioxins from the Marine Environment
Polyhalogenated dibenzo-p-dioxins are arguably among the most toxic molecules known to man. In addition to anthropogenic sources, marine invertebrates also harbor polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins of as yet unknown biogenic origin.

Impact of Environmental Exposure on Infant Sleep : The Exposome Approach
This review explores how exposure to environmental pollutants during the first 1000 days of life may affect infant sleep. Evidence suggests potential links between chemical exposures and sleep disturbances, underscoring the need for more research on early‐life vulnerability and the impact of pollutants in air, diet, and breast milk.
