Update of the list of QPS‐recommended biological agents intentionally added to food or feeds as notified to EFSA

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a harmonised safety assessment approach to support EFSA Scientific Panels and Units. The QPS approach assesses the taxonomic identity, body of relevant knowledge and safety concerns of microorganisms intentionally added to the food and feed chain.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel 2‐(Piperidin‐4‐yl)‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroisoquinoline and 2‐(Piperidin‐4‐yl)decahydroisoquinoline Antimycotics

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 358, Issue 10, October 2025.
A series of 13 hybrid molecules of both lead structures were prepared using reductive amination as key reaction step. The antimycotic potency of the resulting compounds was evaluated against yeast and mold species. Two compounds showed remarkable potency against several yeasts, and even against Candida krusei.

Safety evaluation of a second extension of use of the food enzyme triacylglycerol lipase from the non‐genetically modified Rhizopus arrhizus strain AE‐TL(B)

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The food enzyme triacylglycerol lipase (triacylglycerol acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Rhizopus arrhizus strain AE‐TL(B) by Amano Enzymes Inc. Two safety evaluations of this food enzyme were made previously, in which EFSA concluded that this food enzyme did not give rise to safety concerns when used in

Lipid Nanoparticles as an Effective Strategy for Protecting Bioactive Compounds in Passion Fruit Seed Oil

European Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 127, Issue 9, September 2025.
This schematic illustrates the encapsulation of Passiflora edulis seed oil (PFSO) into lipid nanoparticles (LNP‐PFSO), transforming waste into value. The nanoparticles, optimized for size (126 nm, PDI: 0.19), were characterized (SEM, FTIR, XRD) and tested for antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, with applications in food fortification or active ...
