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
on the Belgian market. In total, 75 collected product samples were cultured on a general medium and, in case of bacterial growth, two isolates per product sample were collected and characterized using ...
Hazard characterization of Alternaria toxins to identify data gaps and improve risk assessment for human health.
substrate, and growth conditions. This review compiles the available knowledge on hazard identification and characterization of Alternaria toxins. Alternariol (AOH), its monomethylether AME and the perylene ...
BSFM 2023- L. monocytogenes in Plant-Based Foods: insights from of a recent foodborne outbreak linked to vegan alternative to cheese
plant-based food production. For example, challenge tests performed on bovine milk and plant-based milk demonstrated similar growth of L. monocytogenes. The outbreak described here provides strong evidence of ...
Development, Validation and Application of a Targeted LC-MS Method for Quantification of Microcystins and Nodularin: Towards a Better Characterization of Drinking Water
(PPIIA), disrupting cell growth and metabolism [15,16]. When ingested, these toxins are transported by the bile salts to the liver, potentially causing liver damage [17,18,19]. Health Topics: Food ...
Decrease of Salmonella and Escherichia coli O157:H7 counts during dry-aging of beef but potential growth of Listeria monocytogenes under certain dry-aging conditions
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Inge Van Damme; S. Varalakshmi; L. De Zutter; E. Vossen; S. De Smet Source: Food Microbiology, Volume 104 (2022) Health Topics: Food consumption and food safety Consommation et sécurité alimenta ...
Production of Alternaria Toxins in Yellow Peach (Amygdalus persica) upon Artificial Inoculation with Alternaria alternate
chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC- MS / MS). The results showed that the growth of A. alternate and the AT s production were dramatically affected by the storage temperature. At 28 °C, the fungi grew rapidly ...
Do current fortification and supplementation programs assure adequate intake of fat-soluble vitamins in Belgian infants, toddlers, pregnant women, and lactating women?
Recommended Dietary Allowances Solubility Vitamin A Vitamin D Vitamin E Vitamin K Vitamins Abstract: Adequate intakes of fat-soluble vitamins are essential to support the growth and development of the foetus, ...
Construction of Nontoxigenic Mutants of Nonproteolytic Clostridium botulinum NCTC 11219 by Insertional Mutagenesis and Gene Replacement.
using a new gene replacement strategy that makes use of pyrE as a bidirectional selection marker. Growth under optimal and stressed conditions, sporulation efficiency, and spore heat resistance of the ...
Follow-up of the Bacillus cereus emetic toxin production in penne pasta under household conditions using liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry.
outbreak-related Bacillus cereus emetic strains were investigated for their growth and cereulide production potential in penne pasta at 4, 8 and 25 °C during 7-day storage. Cereulide production was detected and ...
