In addition, field trials were conducted to investigate the dissipation and residue behaviour of chlorpyrifos, ethion, and triazophos in cauliflower. The dietary risk for Indian consumers was evaluated using risk quotient methods. The average recoveries of chlorpyrifos, ethion, and triazophos ranged from 103 to 115%, 103 to 114%, and 96 to 99%, respectively, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of < 5%. Chlorpyrifos, ethion, and triazophos residues dissipated with half-lives of 2.8, 4.3, and 2.7 days, respectively. Washing the cauliflower, followed by boiling decreased the residues by over 70%, resulting in a processing factor of < 1. Chronic risk quotients (RQs) were < 1, except for triazophos on the first day after application, indicating that consumption of cauliflower was safe for all age groups of Indian consumers.

This study evaluated the toxicological profile of a novel azaphilone pigment produced by <i>Talaromyces amestolkiae</i> using <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> as a validated <i>in vivo</i> alternative model. Synchronized L1-stage nematodes were exposed for 72 h to azaphilone-contaminated <i>Escherichia coli</i> at concentrations ranging from 3.1 to 50%. Toxicological endpoints included body length, motility, intra-uterine egg count, reproductive performance, larval lethality, and lifespan. Exposure to the colorant led to significant increases in worm length and motility, induced larval lethality, and reduced lifespan at the lowest concentration tested. No mortality was observed, but the effects were sufficient to preclude the identification of a No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL). A Low Observed Adverse Effect Level (LOAEL) was established below 3.1%. The presence of glucose (1.54 g/100 mL) in the extract may have contributed to some of the observed effects, reflecting the need for improved production processes. The concentrations tested exceeded typical food-use levels. The present study provides important preliminary data to guide future risk assessments.

Existing GMO databases, including the one developed by the Joint Research Centre (JRC), do not cover all events authorised worldwide. To bridge this gap, we designed a bioinformatics pipeline to retrieve new GMO sequences from public databases. We used for our initial query a 25 bp Ti plasmid sequence, which is commonly retained in the host genome after <i>Agrobacterium tumefaciens</i>-mediated transformation. Analysis of the initial dataset enabled us to identify longer query sequences, subsequently used to retrieve additional GMO sequences. This approach yielded the complete sequences of 23 GMOs. The bioinformatics strategy can be extended to other genetic targets frequently used in GMO development, facilitating the design of more effective screening approaches. As a proof of concept, we developed a new real-time PCR screening method targeting the <i>Agrobacterium</i>-derived region, using common sequences identified in our bioinformatics analysis. The resulting method demonstrated good sensitivity and specificity, successfully detecting 13 unauthorised GMOs in the European Union that were developed using <i>Agrobacterium</i>-mediated transformation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":622,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Consumer Protection and Food Safety","volume":"21 1","pages":"41 - 51"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00003-025-01581-5.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147579540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results showed that 3% acetic acid induced a higher level of BPA migration than 10% ethanol. Pure soybean oil produced a higher level of BPA migration than water. BPA migration increased proportionally with salt concentration, whereas the effect of sugar content was less pronounced. BPA migration is strongly influenced by the chemical composition of the food simulant, in particular by acidity and salt content.

In Brazil, however, limited information is available on the compliance of organic product labels with national legislation. This study aimed to evaluate the compliance of organic food labels sold in large-scale retail stores in Brazil and to compare them with standards from the United States and the European Union. A total of 197 labels were collected and analyzed according to Brazilian legislation (Law No. 10831/2003; Normative Instructions No. 19/2009 and 18/2014). Non-conformities were classified by severity: Grade 1 (minor with no safety impact), Grade 2 (moderate, causing consumer confusion and potential economic harm), and Grade 3 (severe, potentially requiring product recall). The results were also compared with the United States National Organic Program (NOP) and European Union (EU) Regulation 848/2018. Over half of the labels (55.8%) showed non-conformities with Brazilian legislation, some of which had the potential to mislead consumers. The most frequent issues were related to the incorrect use or absence of mandatory information, including the Brazilian SisOrg seal. When compared with US and EU standards, additional regulatory gaps were identified, particularly regarding clarity, enforcement, and alignment with international practices. These findings highlight the need to strengthen monitoring and enforcement of organic labeling in Brazil. Revising the legislation to address critical gaps and align it with international standards could enhance consumer protection and promote the sustainable development of the organic food sector.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":622,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Consumer Protection and Food Safety","volume":"20 4","pages":"321 - 328"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145533215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
