Inhalt | This lecture presents the current state of the science of risk assessment of chemicals (additives, pesticide or drug residues, phytochemicals, toxins and contaminants) in food by consideration of the four stages of risk assessment, i.e., hazard identification, hazard characterization, exposure assessment and risk characterization. The contribution of animal-based methods and pharmacologic or epidemiologic studies will be outlined with emphasis on the importance of first applying existing chemical, biochemical, physiologic or toxicological knowledge. The lecture will also discuss the issues of risk management and communication in food toxicology, identify gaps of knowledge and outline areas of current research. Specific topics: Introduction – Historical background, legal basis, acute threats and pervasive low-level exposures Tools of risk assessment and management – NOEL, ADI/TDI, BMD & MOE concepts, examples of MLs & MRLs Residue toxicology – Pesticides & veterinary drugs Analytical guidelines – screening & confirmatory methods, interpretation of results The concept of “threshold of toxicological concern” with reference to food Carcinogens in food (including toxicants induced during food processing) Toxicologic assessment of genetically modified food Anthropogenic contaminants – POPs, heavy metals Phytochemicals in food Mycotoxins in food Dietary chemoprotection Emerging issues in food toxicology – Case studies |
