The ECDC, the EFSA and the EMA have for the first time jointly explored associations between consumption of antimicrobials in humans and food-producing animals, and antimicrobial resistance in bacteria from humans and food-producing animals, using 2011 an ...
To monitor antimicrobial resistance in zoonotic and indicator bacteria from food-producing animal populations and meat thereof under Decision 2013/652/EC, a guidance for randomised sampling procedures is provided. Prospective and retrospective sampling pl ...
Bacillus species are used in animal production directly as microbial feed additives or as the source of other feed additives, notably enzymes. The principal safety concern for consumers and, to a lesser extent livestock, associated with Bacillus is a capa ...
This scientific report provides a review of modern methodologies and tools to depict toxicokinetic and toxicodynamic processes and their application for the human hazard assessment of chemicals. The application of these methods is illustrated with example ...
The antimicrobial resistance data among zoonotic and indicator bacteria in 2012, submitted by 26 European Union Member States, were jointly analysed by the EFSA and the ECDC. Resistance in zoonotic Salmonella and Campylobacter isolates from humans, animal ...
This report reviews recent work on bee health carried out by EFSA, Member States (MSs) and the European Commission (EC). It identifies data and knowledge gaps and provides research recommendations that may facilitate the transition towards an integrated e ...
The FEEDAP Panel received a request to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of formaldehyde used in feed for all animal species based on dossiers submitted by applicants. In parallel, the ANS Panel evaluated the safety of formaldehyde f ...
