La gubernamentalidad y el dispositivo científico-político del riesgo: la teoría de los factores de riesgo psicosocial Governmentality and the scientific-political dispositive of risk: the theory of psychosocial risk

The present work constitutes the external scientific report of the EFSA open call OC/EFSA/FEED/2015/01. The aim of the call was to provide EFSA with a database from a review on the taxonomical description and potential toxigenic capacities of microorganisms used for the industrial production of feed additives and food enzymes. The review includes microorganisms used as source of feed additives and food enzymes for which EFSA has received or can potentially receive applications for safety assessment, and which have not been recommended for Qualified Presumption of Safety status. The database also comprises the molecular taxonomical identifiers and biosynthetic pathways involved in the production of toxic compounds and the responsible genes. The main result of the project is shown as a database developed according to the EFSA data structure. The methodological aspects and the queries used in the systematic search, as well as the procedure applied for the screening of scientific documents retrieved are described in this report. Details are available in supplementary appendices.In total, 22970 scientific documents were screened in the literature search, from which 411 were initially selected for providing pertinent data for the scope of the project. From the review of the selected articles, 474 bioactive secondary metabolites were recorded and 59 compounds were further studied in order to obtain data on their toxicology and the conditions in which they are produced by the microorganisms used in industrial fermentations. The database generated in this project comprises details that characterise, when available, the production conditions, genes involved and toxicity of these 59 compounds. This provides information that can be used to establish safety measures when using potentially toxigenic microorganisms in industrial fermentations Disclaimer: The present document has been produced and adopted by the bodies identified above as author(s).
