Genetic relatedness of Staphylococcus aureus isolates within food outbreaks by single nucleotide polymorphisms.
this study, we propose a SNP cut-off by taking into account the mutation rate and the evolution time of this pathogen in food. Through in vitro microevolution, we determined the mutation rate of three S. ...
Particle size analysis of iron hydroxide adipate tartrate (IHAT) in a food supplement: Interlaboratory testing of a dynamic light scattering method
constituent particle size, referred to in the implementing regulation as ‘primary particle size’. In this study, a method to determine the constituent particle size distribution of IHAT using the volume-based ...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in food and beverages: determination by LC-HRMS and occurrence in products from the Belgian market.
population. More than a decade ago, such assessment was performed only for PFOS and PFOA and is currently outdated. For the determination of PFAS in foodstuffs, an extraction based on a “quick, easy, cheap, ...
FT-IR spectroscopy as a rapid method for Salmonella spp. typing
LDA. This can be explained by the selected spectral region, which reflects the carbohydrate composition, the main components of the somatic O-antigens determining the serogroup. Discriminating serotypes ...
Urine concentrations of Arsenic and its species in adolescents from Wallonia (Belgium).
determinants such as gender and determined exposure reference values. We analysed urine concentrations of total arsenic (AsT), arsenobetaine (AB) and toxic relevant arsenic (TRA, the sum of DMA, MMA and ...
Aluminium intake through the consumption of selected baby foods and risk characterization in a population of Brazilian infants aged 0 to 36 months
combining mean levels of Al in 171 samples of baby foods (infant formula, meat/vegetable purees, fruit purees, petit-suisse and cereals), analytically determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission ...
Development of a reliable UHPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of zearalenone and zearalenone-14-glucoside in various feed products
ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method (UHPLC- MS / MS) was developed for the simultaneous determination of two mycotoxins, that is, zearalenone (ZEN) and zearalenone-14-glucoside ...
Benchmarking public policies to create healthy food environments compared to best practice: the Healthy Food Environment Policy Index in Guatemala.
obesity and non-communicable diseases (NCD s) in the countries. The aim of the study was to determine the extent of food environment policy implementation in Guatemala and to identify and prioritize actions ...
Availability of healthy and unhealthy foods in modern retail outlets located in selected districts of Greater Accra Region, Ghana.
(nutritionally poor) foods can influence preference, purchasing and consumption of such foods. This study determined the healthiness of foods sold at modern retail outlets- supermarkets and mini-marts in the ...
Development, validation and application of multi-class methods for the analysis of food additives by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry
aimed to develop an accurate and high-throughput analytical method enabling the simultaneous determination of additives from different functional classes to facilitate controls and generate occurrence ...
