Food consumption Survey 2022-2023- Estimation of food and supplement consumption and nutrient intake in the Belgian population
statistical modelling. The software used for this purpose, along with its underlying principles, is discussed in detail. Indicators of consumption, such as mean intake, habitual intake, and consumption ...
be.Prepared: Setting up a cloud-based bioinformatics platform and coupled NRC usability platform for integrated genomic-epidemiological analysis at a national level
instances, accessible only by the responsible NRC. This local platform is based on the Bacterial Isolate Genome Sequence Database (BIGS db) open-source software, modified to accommodate pathogen-specific ...
Galaxy @Sciensano: a comprehensive bioinformatics portal for genomics-based microbial typing, characterization, and outbreak detection.
Bacterial Genomics Humans SOFTWARE whole genome sequencing Abstract: The influx of whole genome sequencing (WGS) data in the public health and clinical diagnostic sectors has created a need for data analysis ...
FT-IR spectroscopy as a rapid method for Salmonella spp. typing
of the serogroups by the software’s integrated classifier was evaluated. Discussion Cluster analysis revealed a discrimination power of 88,7% (102/115 isolates), of serogroups O:4, O:7, and O:9 using ...
A validation methodology for size and shape measurement of nanoplastics by transmission electron microscopy
surface. Each series of 10 images is analyzed using the ParticleSizer software in ImageJ. The intermediate precision of the quantitative TEM measurement is evaluated using a top-down approach [4] combining ...
Characterization of functional nanoparticles applied in face masks by STEM-EDX
