Assessment of possible human health hazards of frozen Sitotroga cerealella eggs in the plant protection products CHRYSObio and CHRYSOcontrol
Get PDFVKM has assessed possible health hazards associated with the use of frozen eggs of Sitotroga cerealella as feed. Background The plant protection products CHRYSObio and CHRYSOcontrol contain Chrysoperla carnea and frozen eggs of Sitotroga cerealella. The eggs are used as feed for the larvae of C. carnea, the beneficial organism in the products. VKM has previously assessed environmental and health risks associated with C. carnea. Since the eggs of S. cerealella are frozen (dead), VKM has now assessed only human health hazard associated with the eggs in the products CHRYSObio and CHRYSOcontrol. Conclusion Insect eggs, frozen or not, can carry pathogens that may be harmful to humans. Freezing can kill some of these pathogens, but some hardy pathogens can survive low temperatures. Some people are allergic to insect proteins, and freezing does not eliminate such proteins. However, VKM found no reports identifying eggs of S. cerealella neither as carriers of pathogens nor as a cause of allergies in humans. The risk assessment is approved by VKM's Panel on Plant Health.Assessment of possible human health hazards of frozen Sitotroga cerealella eggs in the plant protection products CHRYSObio and CHRYSOcontrolpublishedVersio

Information and support services for children aged 9 to 12 years: Children’s experiences with and preferences for support services
No full textVi har gjennomført en intervjustudie med barn 9-12 år om deres ønsker for og erfaringer med hjelpetjenester. Dette er tredje og siste delstudie i et forskningsprosjekt der vi med ulike metoder undersøker barn 9-12 år sin bruk av tjenester der de selv kan henvende seg for å få informasjon, veiledning eller hjelp. Studiens forskningsspørsmål var: Hva er barn i alderen 9-12 år sine behov og ønsker for, samt erfaringer med informasjons- og hjelpetjenester? Vi gjennomførte 29 fokusgruppeintervjuer med til sammen 92 barn fordelt på 4.-7. klassetrinn, fra åtte forskjellige skoler ulike steder i Norge. I tillegg gjennomførte vi semistrukturerte intervjuer med 20 ungdommer i alderen 16-19 år. Våre funn viser at barna har begrenset kjennskap til dagens tjenestetilbud, hva de ulike tjenestene gjør og hvordan de kan nås. Barn og ungdom har likevel mange ideér om hvordan en hjelpetjeneste for barn bør utformes. De gir uttrykk for at en hjelpetjeneste bør tilby flere kontaktformer, som er både fysiske og digitale, b.l.a avhengig av barnets alder, problemets alvorlighetsgrad og behovet for anonymitet. Barna ønsker selv å velge kontaktform og hvordan kommunikasjonen skal skje, med mulighet til å velge hvem de snakker med. En av de største utfordringene knyttet til dagens tjenestetilbud for barn er at verken de fysiske eller digitale tjenestene i tilstrekkelig grad når frem til barna. Funnene tyder på at det vil være viktig å styrke tilgjengeligheten til de fysiske hjelpetjenestene, særlig helse- og sosialtjenesten i skolen, samtidig som at det alene trolig ikke er tilstrekkelig. Det vil også være viktig å se på utviklingen av en digital hjelpetjeneste som er rettet særskilt mot barn i 9-12 års alderen.We conducted an interview study with children aged 9-12 about their wishes for and experiences with support services. This is the third and final sub-study in a larger research project, which adopted different methods to investigate 9 to 12 year-old children's use of services they can contact for information, guidance or help. The study's research question was: What are 9 to 12 year-old children's needs and wishes for, and experiences with, information and support services? We conducted 29 focus group interviews with 92 children in grades 4-7, from eight different schools across Norway. In addition, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 20 young people aged 16-19. Our findings show that children have limited knowledge of today’s support services, what they do and how they can be accessed. However, they have numerous ideas about the ideal design of a future support service for children. It should offer several contact options, that are both physical and digital, depending on, among other things, the child's age, the severity of the problem and the need for anonymity. Children want to be able to select the form of contact and how communication should take place, with the option of also selecting who they talk to. One of the biggest challenges with today's support services for children is that neither the physical nor digital services sufficiently reach children. Our findings indicate that it will be important to strengthen the accessibility of physical support services, especially health- and social services in schools, though in and of itself this will likely be insufficient. It will also be important to consider the development of a digital support service specifically aimed at children aged 9-12.publishedVersio
