Spatial and Temporal Variability of Elemental Fingerprints of European Sardine (Sardina pilchardus) Scales: Implications for the Traceability of Geographic Origin and for Fisheries Management

Fishes
The European sardine Sardina pilchardus, a key marine resource in Portugal and Spain, experienced severe population declines in the 2000s. To support its recovery, confirming the geographic origin of European sardine is essential. This study examines the

Chemical Toxicants Used for Food Preservation in Africa. Is it a Case of Ignorance or Food Fraud? A Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims This review examined the use of chemical preservatives in food preservation and the food fraud risks associated with its misuse in Africa. In Africa, there is growing reliance on the use of synthetic chemical preservation such as benzoates, nitrates or sorbates to preserve foods to improve the storage life of the foods ...
