“…This tendency also reduces one's willingness to eat certain basic foods, such as vegetable salads and fish [52]. A diet that includes as many different foods as possible is essential to health because it ensures nutritional quality and prevents chemical accumulation due to constant exposure to the same substances [53]. The neophobic trait is recognized as a barrier to diet modification [35] and has a negative influence on diet quality [54] while the willingness to accept different food alternatives can be an indicator of the ability to make positive changes in eating habits.…”

While the ethnic food market has become increasingly important in Italy, the effects of the hybridization of consumption patterns have been slowed by a consolidated culinary tradition. This study investigates the relationships among ethnic food consumption, food neophobia, and openness to different cultures with sociodemographic characteristics. A sample of 1317 Italian consumers responded to an online survey. The sociodemographic profile of the neophobic consumer appears to substantially differ from that of the consumer with an attitude of openness. Neophobic respondents are males, are older than 55 years of age, are less educated, have children, are retired, have difficulty meeting their financial responsibilities, and do not eat ethnic food. Respondents who are more open to different cultures are young adults, are highly educated, have no children, are employed, and are consumers of ethnic food. The relationship between food neophobia and openness to different cultures is confirmed to be the relationship between these variables and ethnic food consumption. The measurement of these characteristics could serve as a crucial indicator for analyzing the willingness to accept elements of novelty in an increasingly multicultural society. Additionally, consumers with the neophobic trait and who are less open to different cultures might have a less varied diet that is essential to good health.

“…Among these factors, food and dietary-exposome of chemicals are critical either to promote, demote, or even damage human health. Edible vegetable oils such as palm, canola, coconut, sunflower, and olive oil comprise standard ingredients of humans' daily diet and therefore own prominent impact on health during the lifetime (2).…”

Edible vegetable oils comprise integral components of humans' daily diet during the lifetime. Therefore, they constitute a central part of dietary-exposome, which among other factors regulates human health. In particular, the regular consumption of olive oil (OO) has been largely accepted as a healthy dietary pattern. Responsible for its recognition as a superior edible oil is its exceptional aroma and flavor. Its unique composition is characterized by high levels of monounsaturated fatty acids and the presence of minor constituents with important biological properties, such as the so-called OO polyphenols. Being a high added value product, OO suffers from extensive fraud and adulteration phenomena. However, its great chemical complexity, variability, and the plethora of parameters affecting OO composition hamper significantly the selection of the absolute criteria defining quality and authenticity, and a reliable and robust methodology is still unavailable. In the current study, Flow Injection Analysis-Magnetic Resonance Mass Spectrometry (FIA-MRMS) was investigated under a metabolic profiling concept for the analysis of Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oils (EVOO). More than 200 monovarietal (Koroneiki) EVOO samples were collected from the main Greek OO producing regions and investigated. Both intact oil and the corresponding polyphenols were analyzed in fast analysis time of 2 and 8 min, respectively. In parallel, an LC-Orbitrap MS platform was used to verify the efficiency of the method as well as a tool to increase the identification confidence of the proposed markers. Based on the results, with FIA-MRMS, comparable and improved projection and prediction models were generated in comparison to those of the more established LC-MS methodology. With FIA-MRMS more statistically significant compounds and chemical classes were identified as quality and authenticity markers, associated with specific parameters, i.e. geographical region, cultivation practice, and production procedure. Furthermore, it was possible to monitor both lipophilic and hydrophilic compounds with a single analysis. To our knowledge, this approach is among the few studies in which two FT-MS platforms combining LC and FIA methods were integrated to provide solutions to quality control aspects of OO. Moreover, both lipophilic and hydrophilic components are analyzed together, providing a holistic quality control workflow for OO.

“…The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations estimated that approximately 25% of the cereals produced in the world are contaminated by mycotoxins [4]. Recently, it is estimated that about 60%-80% of crops around the world are contaminated with mycotoxins at detectable levels [5]. Animal feed products have been regulated only for aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) by legislation through the European Commission Decision 2002/32/EC [6] and limits have been set for deoxynivalenol (DON), ochratoxin A (OTA), zearalenone (ZEA), T-2 toxin (T-2), HT-2 toxin (HT-2), fumonisin B1 (FB1) and fumonisin B2 (FB2) [7].…”

A reliable, sensitive and accurate multiple mycotoxin method was developed for the simultaneous determination of 17 mycotoxins in swine, poultry and dairy feeds using stable isotope dilution (13C-ISTD) and (ultra)-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). A simple QuEChERS-based method (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe) was developed consisting of soaking with a solution of 1% formic acid followed by extraction with acetonitrile, clean-up with C18 sorbent and finally adding 13C-ISTD before the UHPLC-MS/MS analysis. The chromatographic condition was optimized for separation and detection of the 17 mycotoxins using gradient elution. The method’s performance complied with the SANTE/11813/2017 standard and had mean recovery accuracies in the range 70%–120% and precision testing of % relative standard deviation (RSD) ≤ 20%. The limit of detection and limit of quantification values ranged from 0.25 to 40.0 ng/g and 0.5 to 100.0 ng/g, respectively. Finally, the method was applied to analyze feed samples, with the results showing that fumonisins, zearalenone, aflatoxin B1 and deoxynivalenol were the most prevalent mycotoxins contaminating the feed samples.
