English term or phrase: DOS (acronym for an organization from the European Union)
Regarding an Opinion of the Scientific Committee on Food, as in:

"SCF/CS/NF/DOS/18 ADD 2 Final"

I've already figured out that SCF means Scientific Committee on Food, or "Comitê Científico para Alimentação".

Does anyone know what DOS stands for?

Thanks in advance!

Infelizmente, o contexto não está relacionado com a área de informática, mas sim de organizações que regulamentam alimentos na União Européia. Vide as observações acima.

Obrigada mesmo assim.
