An interlaboratory proficiency test using metagenomic sequencing as a diagnostic tool for the detection of RNA viruses in swine fecal material.
classifier as well as read mapping to selected astroviral reference genomes to assess the semiquantitative representation of astrovirus species mixtures. All participants successfully identified and classified ...
FT-IR spectroscopy as a rapid method for Salmonella spp. typing
S. Paratyphi B var Java (n=20); 15 to O:7 (S. Infantis) and 24 to O:9 (S. Enteritidis). The selected serotypes are under particular surveillance in the European Union b. The portion of the spectrum studied ...
Advances in monitoring-centered quantification of microcystins in fish matrix using UHPLC-MS/MS
published methods were necessary before validation of the method was possible. Moreover, elution gradients and the selection of the daughter ions had to be optimized to deal with the matrix effect propagated ...
Please don't throw me in the briar patch! Empirical evidence on the role of instructional cues on eco-label usage in fish consumption decisions
control trial conducted in a simulated fishmonger store in Derio, Bizkaia, Spain, involving 200 consumers. Participants selected various sea bass products out of multiple options. This task was subject to ...
Strain-level characterization without culture enrichment? Easing and accelerating outbreak investigation using shotgun metagenomics facilitated with nanopore adaptive sampling
a proof-of-concept, we explored the use of adaptive sampling using various databases (depletion of the food matrix i.e. potato, enrichment of a selection of foodborne pathogens, enrichment of a database of ...
EFSA Project on the use of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) for the hazard assessment of nanofibres. Lot 1, nanocellulose oral exposure: gastrointestinal digestion, nanofibres uptake and local effects
(iii) assessment of any digestion or degradation of NC by the human microbiome. Eight NC samples belonging to the three NC types, plus a comparator in the micro-range, were selected as study materials and ...
Selenium in selected samples of infant formulas and milk commercialized in Belgium and Brazil: total content, speciation and estimated intake
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Esther Lima de Paiva; Ann Ruttens; Nadia Waegeneers; Gijs Du Laing; Marcelo Antonio Morgano; Karlien Cheyns; Adriana Pavesi Arisseto-Bragotto Source: Food Research International (2023) Keywords: ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
therefore a selection marker is often used to detect the bacteria who have included the modification in their genome. Antimicrobial resistance genes are often used as one of these markers. The construct may ...
Comparison of 6 DNA extraction methods for isolation of high yield of high molecular weight DNA suitable for shotgun metagenomics Nanopore sequencing to detect bacteriaAbstractBackgroundResultsConclusion
From the obtained results, the Quick- DNA HMW MagBead Kit (Zymo Research) was selected as producing the best yield of pure HMW DNA. Furthermore, this kit allowed an accurate detection, by Nanopore ...
Aluminium intake through the consumption of selected baby foods and risk characterization in a population of Brazilian infants aged 0 to 36 months
from selected baby foods was estimated for Brazilian infants from the Sao Paulo State by means of a deterministic and a probabilistic estimation. The deterministic exposure assessment was carried out by ...
