Risk assessment of aflatoxins in food
AFG2, the in vivo data are not sufficient to derive potency factors and equal potency to AFB1 was assumed as in previous assessments. MOE values for AFB1 exposure ranged from 5,000 to 29 and for AFM1 from ...
Thyroid cancer incidence near nuclear sites in Belgium: An ecological study at small geographical level
sites. Focused hypothesis tests and generalized additive models were performed to test the hypothesis of a gradient in thyroid cancer incidence with increasing levels of surrogate exposures. No evidence ...
Determinants of persistent organic pollutant (POP) concentrations in human breast milk of a cross-sectional sample of primiparous mothers in Belgium
concentrations of BDE s, but for BDE congeners exposure routes other than diet require further investigation. Conclusions Dietary and non-dietary determinants predict individual POP concentrations in breast milk. ...
