Advice on the risk of biocidal residues in food

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Biocidal products are widely used across food production chains to control microbiological hazards. Residues of substances in these products can end up in food, to which consumers are subsequently exposed. Whether these residues pose a risk to consumers is currently largely unknown.

Lipase Stability in Structured Lipid Synthesis: The Interplay of Substrate Characteristics and Strategies to Improve Its Operational Performance—A Critical Review

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Structured lipids (SLs) have attracted growing industrial interest due to their associated health benefits. Lipases, as highly selective and versatile biocatalysts, are central to the sustainable synthesis of SLs attributed to their ability to operate under mild reaction conditions. However, the limited operational stability of lipases remains
