TL;DR: To provide risk managers with a health-based guideline to prevent health effects of exposure to non-dioxin-like PCBs, the (international) derivation of a tolerable daily intake is recommended.

TL;DR: The EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food (ANS) provides a scientific opinion re‐evaluating the safety of silicon dioxide (E 551) when used as a food additive, concluding that the EU specifications are insufficient to adequately characterise the food additive E 551.

TL;DR: A risk evaluation at the most sensitive endpoints of BDE 99 carried out in this paper indicates that, although the long-term exposure to BDE99 is well below the human exposure threshold level for neurodevelopmental toxicity, it may be close to that for reproductive toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary exposure to dioxins and dioxin-like PCBs in The Netherlands anno 2004

TL;DR: Time-trend analysis shows that the exposure to dioxin-like compounds in most of the foods has further decreased by 35% over the past five years, mainly influenced by lower levels in meat and milk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cumulative risk assessment of the exposure to organophosphorus and carbamate insecticides in the Dutch diet
TL;DR: The acute cumulative exposure to organophosphorus insecticides (OPs) and carbamates in the Dutch population and young children via the diet and the probabilistic approach is reported, finding that Spinach contributed most to the exposure to OPs in both age groups, followed by orange and mandarin.
