In the last years, consequently to EC Regulation no. 1924/2006 on nutrition and health claims made on foods, some Italian food businnes operators (FBOs) leaders in the meat sector, invested in research to develop innovative products such as low fat salami, containing up to 30% less fat than the traditional one. For FBOs it is essential to demonstrate for each production process whether the substrate allows the growth of and whether could reach or exceed the limit of 100 cfu g at the end of the shelf life, as stated by EC Regulation no. 2073/2005. In the present study, the growth potential of during the shelf life of low fat salami packed in modified atmosphere was evaluated. The results show that the product is unable to support the growth of pathogen, even if the storage temperature is between 8 and 12°C.

Objective: this trial aimed to determine the effects of probiotic supplementation on weight loss and lipid profiles in hypercholesterolemic obese patients.
Methods: ın this pilot randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, hypercholesterolemic obese patients (BMI = 30.0-35.
Background: Low-grade inflammation, indicated by elevated serum high-sensitivity CRP (hS-CRP), is commonly observed in children and adolescents with overweight or obesity. This study evaluated serum hS-CRP in relation to body fat parameters, lifestyle characteristics, and potential biological determinants (leptin, HDL cholesterol, and 25-OH vitamin D) in a Belgian population.
Methods: Anthropometric measurements, biochemical results, and lifestyle questionnaires were analyzed from 267 children and adolescents with overweight or obesity.

Background Patients with risk factors such as viral hepatitis-induced liver cirrhosis, advanced-stage primary biliary cirrhosis, hereditary hemochromatosis, metabolic-associated fatty liver disease, and alcoholic liver disease are more likely to develop hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Most HCC patients have advanced-stage disease unresponsive to treatment. Therefore, avoiding or treating viral infections and early detection through routine surveillance, such as repeated liver ultrasonography, are the most effective ways to reduce HCC-related mortality.

Both dietary and endogenous reactive carbonyl species, such as methylglyoxal (MGO) and glyoxal (GO), react with proteins to generate advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which contribute to metabolic diseases. However, accurately determining individual AGEs in biological samples remains challenging due to the lack of standardized methods. In this study, we optimized and detailed procedures for AGE digestion using enzyme cocktails and separation and detection via high-resolution LC-MS/MS.
