Anterior Nasal Nerves: A Cadaveric Anatomic and Immunohistochemical Analysis
Anterior nasal nerves (ANNs) were identified in all cadavers, with more supplying the anterolateral nasal wall (ALNW) than the anterior portion of the inferior turbinate (IT), between the pyriform aperture (PA) and middle turbinate (MT). Both sensory and autonomic nerve markers were also identified in the ANNs.

This study assessed the prevalence, quantitative IgE levels, co‐sensitization patterns, and clinical significance of IgE reactivity to two TLPs—Act d 2 (kiwi) and Mal d 2 (apple)—in a large Italian allergic cohort. Thaumatin‐like protein (TLP) sensitization was uncommon (1.9%) and usually clinically silent when isolated.

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme papain from the latex of <i>Carica papaya</i> L. [PDF]
Abstract The food enzyme papain (EC 3.4.22.2) is extracted from the latex of unripe Carica papaya L. by Nagase (Europe) GmbH. It is intended to be used in six food manufacturing processes. The dietary exposure to the food enzyme–total organic solids (TOS) was estimated to be up to 1.112 mg TOS/kg body weight per day. This exposure is up to one order of

Isothiazolinones in Disposable Rubber Gloves—Results of Chemical Analysis
Chemical analysis revealed benzisothiazolinone (BIT) in 30/54 disposable rubber gloves (27 nitrile rubber gloves, 2 neoprene rubber gloves and 1 natural rubber glove) in concentrations of 0.3–73.7 ppm. Methylisothiazolinone (MI) was found in six nitrile rubber gloves in small concentrations.
