Four references were cited to substantiate the claimed effect. Two references (Ananth, 2004; Borzelleca et al., 2004) were not accessible to the Panel after having made every reasonable effort to
retrieve them. One reference was incompletely cited (Elsevier, Safe Assessment Report), and was also not accessible to the Panel after having made every reasonable effort to retrieve it. The reference Christian et al. (2004) is a toxicity study in rats and did not provide any scientific data that could be used to substantiate the claimed effect.
The Panel concludes that a cause and effect relationship has not been established between the consumption of “olive biophenols” and decreasing potentially pathogenic intestinal microorganisms.
