    Abstract

    This comprehensive study focus into various facets of food safety, covering controversial topics such as the bisphenol A (BPA) tolerable daily intake set by EFSA and challenges in aggregating data from food allergen immunotherapy trials. It also explores the evaluation of isomaltulose syrup as a novel food and emphasises the significance of a One Health perspective in addressing pathogenic Clostridia. Additionally, the study highlights the pivotal role of genomic resources in understanding persistence and virulence. Through a multidisciplinary lens, the study provides insights into current advancements, offering a scientific understanding of the evolving landscape of food safety.
