Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

The catalytic and kinetic characterization of Bacillus subtilis MK775302 milk clotting enzyme: comparison with calf rennet as a coagulant in white soft cheese manufacture

Journal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Background Calf rennet is considered the traditional source of milk clotting enzyme (MCE). However, increasing cheese consumption with decreasing the calf rennet supply had encouraged the quest for new rennet alternatives. The purpose of this study is to

Encapsulated Indigenous Lactic Acid Bacteria Strains From Traditional Iranian Cheese Alleviate Hyperglycemia and Inflammation in Streptozotocin‐Induced Diabetic Rats

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Microencapsulated Lactiplantibacillus pentosus D1 and L. plantarum D2, isolated from traditional Iranian cheese, exhibited robust probiotic properties and high encapsulation efficiency. In streptozotocin‐induced diabetic rats, oral administration (1 × 109 CFU/day, 8 weeks) significantly reduced fasting blood glucose (200.8 ± 8.4 vs. 317.1 ± 10.7 mg/dL),

Behavior of Aspartic Proteases From Artichoke Flower (Cynara cardunculus L. var Scolymus) in the Hydrolysis of Buffalo Milk Casein

Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to assess the activity of proteases from artichoke flower extract in the enzymatic hydrolysis of casein from buffalo milk and to investigate its potential application in cheese production. Artichoke flower extract and microbial chymosin were assessed for their proteolytic activity (PA) and milk clotting activity
