CARF (“Ce Are Românul în Farfurie”) (“What the Romanians have in their Plate”) is the dietary survey carried out in Romania in order to collect food consumption data on representative samples of adolescents (356 subjects 10‐17 years old), adults (740 subj ...
Based on the service contract OC/EFSA/DATA/2015/03 CT1, the FinDiet 2017 Survey in adults (18‐64 years old) and elderly (65‐74 years old) was carried out in compliance with the EU Menu methodology. Altogether 10305 subjects were originally invited to part ...
This report is the outcome of an EFSA procurement (NP/EFSA/GMO/2018/01) reviewing relevant scientific information on in silico prediction methods for protein toxicity, that could support the food and feed risk assessment. Several proteins are associated w ...
