Retrospective surveillance of viable Bacillus cereus group contaminations in commercial food and feed vitamin B2 products sold on the Belgian market using whole-genome sequencing
bacterium that occurs as a contaminant in food and feed, occasionally resulting in food poisoning through the production of various toxins. In this study, we retrospectively characterized viable B. cereus ...

Development of a Taxon-Specific Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction Method to Detect Trichoderma reesei Contaminations in Fermentation Products
Recently, a genetically modified microorganism (GMM) detection strategy using real-time PCR technology was developed to control fermentation products commercialized in the food and feed chain, allowing ...
Targeted High-Throughput Sequencing Enables the Detection of Single Nucleotide Variations in CRISPR/Cas9 Gene-Edited Organisms
and their derived food/feed products commercialized on the European Union market fall within the scope of European Union Directive 2001/18/ EC. Consequently, their control in the food/feed chain by GMO ...
Regulatory safety assessment of nanoparticles for the food chain in Europe
small particles (including nanoparticles) in products used in the food chain in the EU falls within the remit of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and has been under thorough scientific ...
Development of a reliable UHPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of zearalenone and zearalenone-14-glucoside in various feed products
Frontiers in Chemistry, Volume 10 (2022) Keywords: feed products HLB cartridges ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry Zearalenone zearalenone-14-glucoside Abstract: A reliable ...
Advances in the physicochemical characterization of nanoparticles in a regulatory context.
proposed from the perspective of the Belgian national reference laboratory responsible for control of particulate (nano)materials applied in the food and feed chain, and in consumer products. The importance ...
Decontamination process for dioxins and dioxin‐like PCBs from fish oil and vegetable oils and fats by a physical process with activated carbon
dioxin‐like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL ‐ PCB s) by adsorption to activated carbon. All feed decontamination processes must comply with the acceptability criteria specified in the Commission Regulation (EU) ...
Development of a taxon-specific real-time PCR method targeting the Bacillus subtilis group to strengthen the control of genetically modified bacteria in fermentation products
and associated DNA) that were carrying antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes was noticed in several microbial fermentation products that have been commercialized on the food and feed market. These ...
Evaluation of the risks for animal health related to the presence of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) in feed for honey bees
hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) in honey bee feed. HMF is a degradation product of particular sugars and can be present in bee feed. HMF is of low acute toxicity in bees but causes increased mortality upon chronic exposure. ...
