Method development for analysis of nanoplastics in drinking water and milk using transmission electron microscopy (TEM)
risk assessment. This TEM-based approach was validated using polystyrene (PS) reference beads in the size range 60-500 nm, encompassing all analysis steps, from sample preparation to image analysis. Typically, the ...
Food consumption survey 2022-2023: Evaluation of macro- and micronutrient intake in the Belgian population
Depending on the nutrient, the proportion of the population adhering to the dietary reference values is calculated using average requirements, dietary intake ranges, adequate intake levels, population ...
Advancing automated identification of airborne fungal spores: guidelines for cultivation and reference dataset creationAbstract
addressed. Simple classification models were developed, achieving varying accuracies on different monitors. The Plair Rapid-E+ demonstrated accuracies ranging from 83.4% to 95.1% (macro average F1-score 0.61), ...

Monitoring community antibiotic consumption in Belgium: reimbursement versus retail data (2013–22)
drop during the COVID-19 pandemic—from 21.31 DID in 2019 to 16.55 DID in 2020—and a subsequent rebound. Reimbursement data slightly underestimated consumption compared to retail data, with RD s ranging ...
Particle size analysis of iron hydroxide adipate tartrate (IHAT) in a food supplement: Interlaboratory testing of a dynamic light scattering method
results demonstrate that dynamic light scattering can reliably measure the particle size of particles in the low nanometre range if samples are prepared and measured following a robust, easy-to-reproduce, ...
Determination of 16 Hydroxyanthracene Derivatives in Food Supplements Using LC-MS/MS: Method Development and Application.
range from 0.025 mg kg to 1 mg kg. The recovery of the method was within the acceptable range of 80% to 120%, with the exception of physcion. Repeatability varied from 0.5% to 11.6%, and the range for ...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in food and beverages: determination by LC-HRMS and occurrence in products from the Belgian market.
high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC- HRMS). The method was validated, and the achieved limits of quantification (LOQ s) ranged from 0.002 to 0.3 μg/kg, with the exception of HFPO- DA (1 μg/kg). The LC- HRMS ...
