A definition for “personalized nutrition” (PN) is proposed, along with 10 guiding principles that are intended to establish a basis for responsible approaches to the evidence-based research and practice of PN and serve as an invitation for further public dialog.
Evaluating the Applicability of a Risk-based Approach (Decision Tree) to Mycotoxins Mitigation
Food Protection Trends, 2019
The primary aim of this work was to evaluate a hypothesis on whether a foundational framework (decision tree) previously developed by the North American Branch of the International Life Sciences Institute (IAFNS) Food and Chemical Safety Committee for a risk-based approach to mitigation of process-formed compounds could be applied to other not-readily-avoidable substances, such as mycotoxins.
Incorporating New Approach Methodologies in Toxicity Testing and Exposure Assessment for Tiered Risk Assessment Using the RISK21 Approach: Case Studies on Food Contact Chemicals
Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2019
This study highlights the potential utility of the RISK21 approach for interpretation of the ToxCast HTS data, as well as the challenges involved in integrating in vitro HTS data into safety assessments. This work was supported by the IAFNS Food and Chemical Safety Committee 2016 Summer Fellowship.
