Proton Ionization Molecular Mass Spectrometry (PIMMS)

Date du début: 1 juin 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,

"The need for quantitative and fast identification of trace gaseous compounds in complex chemical matrices continuously pushes the limits of analytical chemistry in many areas of relevance to the EU, including food, health, the environment, and security. A relatively new broad-based and rapidly growing analytical technique, proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS), combines excellent c ...

Managing Risks of Nanoparticles (MARINA)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,

While there are standard procedures for product life cycle analysis, exposure, hazard, and risk assessment for traditional chemicals, is not yet clear how these procedures need to be modified to address all the novel properties of nanomaterials. There is a need to develop specific reference methods for all the main steps in managing the potential risk of ENM. The aim of MARINA is to develop such ...

PROcess contaminants: Mitigation and Elimination Techniques for High food quality and their Evaluation Using Sensors & Simulation (PROMETHEUS)

Date du début: 1 mai 2011, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2014,

"The PROMETHEUS project will help the European food industry reduce consumer exposure to food processing contaminants without affecting food quality or microbiological safety. PROMETHEUS builds on the previous EU projects HEATOX and ICARE. Its aims are (1) to understand the dynamics of formation of major Processing Contaminants, (2) to provide on-line real time methods to monitor reactions leading ...

Nanoparticles in Food: Analytical methods for detection and characterisation (NanoLyse)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2013,

The NanoLyse project will focus on the development of validated methods and reference materials for the analysis of engineered nano-particles (ENP) in food and beverages. The developed methods will cover all relevant classes of ENP with reported or expected food and food contact material applications, i.e. metal, metal oxide/silicate, surface functionalised and organic encapsulate (colloidal/micel ...

CONtaminants in Food and Feed: Inexpensive DEtectioN for Control of Exposure (CONffIDENCE)

Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2012,

RASFF alerts show that monitoring of chemical contaminants in food and feed is very relevant in European food safety. Also consumers placed chemical contaminants on top of the “worry-scale” of food-related risks. According to the General Food Law, food and feed industries are responsible for the safety of their products. Often expensive instrumental single-analyte methods are being applied by regu ...

Authentication of fats and fat products used in food and feed (FATAUTHENTICATION)

Date du début: 15 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 14 oct. 2012,

"Quality assessment of foods and raw materials is fundamental for maintaining high quality standards. Fats, oils and other fat products are directly consumed by humans and are also used as ingredients in foods and feed, therefore their authenticity is of great importance regarding food safety aspects, their sensory and nutritional quality, legal compliance, economic reasons and guarantee of a well ...

"Public Perception of Genetically modified Animals - Science, Utility and Society" (PEGASUS)

Date du début: 1 août 2009, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2012,

"PEGASUS aims to provide policy support regarding the development, implementation and commercialisation of GM animals, and derivative foods. The results will contribute to the FP7 KBBE by integrating existing social, (including existing public perception) environmental and economic knowledge regarding GM animals. The use of GM in farmed animals (aquatic and terrestrial) will be reviewed. A foresig ...

European Network on the Health and Environmental Impact of Nanomaterials (NanoImpactNet)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,

Recent technological advances allow the targeted production of objects and materials in the nanoscale (smaller than 100 nm). Nanomaterials have chemical, physical and bioactive characteristics, which are different from those of larger entities of the same materials. Nanoparticles can pass through body barriers. This is interesting for medical applications, but it raises concerns about their health ...

Multiplex detection of (un)authorized GMOs in food and feed (GMULTI)

Date du début: 15 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 14 avr. 2010,

"The main objective of the project is to apply and further develop a multiplex DNA detection system for identification of unauthorized genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in European food and feed chains. The relevance of this is underscored by recent incidents with unapproved Bt10 maize, Bt73 rice and LL62 rice, which showed that lab-testing is unavoidable for maintenance of national and EU law ...
