Effects of tree pollen on throughfall element fluxes in European forests
found between TF nitrate-nitrogen (NO3 −-N) fluxes and SPI n. For Quercus and Pinus, two genera producing many flowers each year, SPI n displayed limited variability and no clear association with TF ...
Exploring the multiple dimensions of perceived food access in the local food environment in Flanders: Perceptions of adults in socioeconomically disadvantaged situations
disadvantaged situations are more susceptible and disproportionally exposed to unhealthy food environments, which results in limited access to healthy foods and poorer dietary outcomes. This qualitative paper ...
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
with the imminent prospect of a harmonized European labelling framework. The existing literature, although limited and divergent, advocates for real-life testing with fresh, perishable food products, ...
Holography-based aerobiological monitoring: a 2-year intercomparison campaign versus the standard Hirst method in Brussels, Belgium
limitations in terms of sampling efficiency and measurement accuracy. Recently, several automatic real-time instruments have been developed to allow the identification and quantification of airborne pollen. ...
Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans
cyanobacteria blooms among the global population in Belgium. There is a general concern about the negative impact of the blooms and their toxins on the environment and public health. Yet, limited data about ...
Implementation of MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry to Identify Fungi From the Indoor Environment as an Added Value to the Classical Morphology-Based Identification Tool
molds is generally performed by microscopy. This method has, however, some limitations as it requires mycologists with high expertise while identification is often limited to the genus level. Therefore, ...
EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders
explored, as well as some challenges and limitations. Health Topics: Fijn stof Gezondheid en milieu Ziektelast Particules fines Particulate matter Health and environment Santé et environnement Burden of ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
Ultimately, a validation of the method is still necessary in order to obtain a precise limit of detection based on the analysis of a large dataset of samples. Moreover, other technologies can still be ...
Validity of air pollution annoyance to assess long-term exposure to air pollution in Belgium
self-reported air pollution annoyance. However, many other factors were found to influence annoyance, independently of the exposure. We found a limited validity of self-reported air pollution annoyance to assess ...
A Summer of Cyanobacterial Blooms in Belgian Waterbodies: Microcystin Quantification and Molecular Characterizations
sequencing. The cyanobacterial diversity for two water samples was characterized with amplicon sequencing. Microcystins were detected above limit of quantification (LOQ) in 68 water samples, and the World ...
