SCIENTIFIC OPINION ON FLAVOURING GROUP EVALUATION 217, REVISION 1 (FGE.217REV1). CONSIDERATION OF GENOTOXIC POTENTIAL FOR ?,?-UNSATURATED KETONES AND PRECURSORS FROM CHEMICAL SUBGROUP 4.1 OF FGE.19: LACTONES

Scientific Opinion on Flavouring Group Evaluation 217, Revision 1 (FGE.217Rev1). Consideration of genotoxic potential for ?,?-unsaturated ketones and precursors from chemical subgroup 4.1 of FGE.19: Lactones

The Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids of the European Food Safety Authority was requested to evaluate the genotoxic potential of 12 flavouring substances from subgroup 4.1 of FGE.19 in the Flavouring Group Evaluation 217 (FGE.217).In FGE.217, 6-methylcoumarin [FL-no: 13.012] was not considered genotoxic and w

Gravity in the quantum lab

At the beginning of the previous century, Newtonian mechanics was advanced by two new revolutionary theories, Quantum Mechanics (QM) and General Relativity (GR).Both theories have transformed our view of physical phenomena, with QM accurately predicting the results of experiments taking place at small length scales, and GR correctly describing obse

Romanian double-definites: double-DP qualitatives

The paper proposes that there are two types of binominal qualitative constructions in Romanian: single-DP qualitatives and double-DP qualitatives (henceforth SDPQs and DDPQs).The constructions falling in the first category will SUN CARE be analyzed as single projections while the second type of qualitatives Tray (Set of 2) will be shown to display
