Abstract(s)
Desde o ano 2019 que se regista um aumento no número de notificações reportadas no portal RASFF, sistema de alertas rápidos comunitários, aumento que se traduz numa maior necessidade de controlo e segurança da qualidade dos géneros alimentícios proporcionados aos consumidores. Ao longo dos anos, os crescentes e notórios efeitos das alterações climáticas têm sido bastante influentes no tópico de “Riscos Emergentes”, uma vez que afetam uma variada gama de alimentos, desde as fases de produção até às fases de expedição de produto. No presente trabalho, realizou-se uma análise a várias categorias de perigo, presentes no portal RASFF, incidente sobre o ano 2023 e o primeiro trimestre de 2024, que revelaram um aumento na presença de microrganismos patogénicos nos alimentos, ultrapassando a deteção de pesticidas. Adicionalmente, verificou-se um aumento considerável dos problemas relativos a organismos geneticamente modificados, comparativamente com o ano anterior. Por fim, foi concluído que, no ano de 2023, não foram detetados novos riscos emergentes, mas certos compostos foram salientados, de forma a receberem mais atenção, como o Norovirus e a Toxina T-2, uma vez que se poderão tornar focos de problemas mais significativos.
Since 2019, there has been an increase in the number of notifications reported on the RASFF portal, the EU's rapid alert system, which translates into a greater need for control and safety of the quality of food products provided to consumers. Over the years, the growing and notorious effects of climate change have been very influential on the topic of "Emerging Risks", since they affect a wide range of foods, from the production stages to the product dispatch stages. In this work, an analysis was made of various hazard categories on the RASFF portal for the year 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, which revealed an increase in the presence of pathogenic microorganisms in food, surpassing the detection of pesticides. In addition, there was a considerable increase in problems relating to genetically modified organisms, compared to the previous year. Finally, it was concluded that no new emerging risks were detected in the year 2023, but certain compounds were highlighted, so that they should receive more attention, such as Norovirus and Toxin T-2, as they could become more significant problem areas.
