Journal ArticleDOI

Toxicology and risk assessment of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural in food.

TL;DR: Results obtained in short-term model studies for 5-HMF on the induction of neoplastic changes in the intestinal tract were negative or cannot be reliably interpreted as "carcinogenic", and no relevance for humans concerning carcinogenic and genotoxic effects can be derived.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toxicology and risk assessment of coumarin: Focus on human data

TL;DR: To estimate exposure to coumarin during the Christmas season in Germany, a telephone survey was performed with more than 1000 randomly selected persons, and a TDI of 0.1 mg/kg body weight was derived, confirming that of the European Food Safety Authority.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of dietary intake of bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) by consumption of food in the German population.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the probabilistic approach is able to estimate broader ranges of exposure even when using data representing an average intake, and reflects the uncertainties of the estimation due to insufficient analytical data on concentrations of DEHP in food.
