In the context of the FEEDAP opinion on the safety and efficacy of a feed additive consisting of chromium propionate (KemTRACE™ Chromium) of 18 March 2021, the EU Reference Laboratory for feed additives (EURL) was not in a position to recommend the method: proposed by the applicant for official control for the quantification of the organic chromium content in premixtures and feedingstuffs. The applicant subsequently proposed a new method of analyses, incorporating a tracer in the composition of a premix, which has been evaluated by EURL and recommended as official method for the quantification of the organic chromium content in premixtures and feedingstuffs. In view of the above, the Commission asked EFSA to issue a new opinion on the safety and efficacy of chromium proprionate (KemTRACE™ Chromium) as feed additive for all growing poultry species including the newly submitted information by the applicant that involves the use of the microtracer.

Chronic exposure to hexavalent chromium induces esophageal tumorigenesis via activating the Notch signaling pathway.

Hexavalent chromium Cr(VI), as a well-established carcinogen, contributes to tumorigenesis for many human cancers, especially respiratory and digestive tumors. However, the potential function and relevant mechanism of Cr(VI) on the initiation of esophageal carcinogenesis are largely unknown. Here, immortalized human esophageal epithelial cells (HEECs) were induced to be malignantly transformed cells, termed HEEC-Cr(VI) cells, via chronic exposure to Cr(VI), which simulates the progress of esophageal tumorigenesis.

Ultrafiltration membranes are widely used in the treatment of surface water. However, membrane fouling is a core issue that needs to be addressed in its application. Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) show early film-forming and magnetotactic behaviour in the presence of external magnetic fields.

The hydrothermal synthesis is presented of copper-doped carbon dots (Cu-CDs) from citric acid, urea, and copper chloride, resulting in blue-fluorescent particles with stable emission at 438 nm when excited at 340 nm. Through comprehensive spectroscopic and microscopic characterization (FTIR, XPS, UV, and HRTEM), the Cu-CDs demonstrated remarkable stability across varying pH levels, ionic strengths, temperatures, and UV exposure. Notably, Cu-CDs exhibit ultra-sensitive and selective detection of hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] ions in aqueous environments driven by fluorescence quenching.
