Strategies to detect unauthorized GMO in the food and feed chain (PhD thesis)
GMO detection system using high-tech approaches. First, as a study case, an overview of genetically modified (GM) rice, developed around the world was carried out to collect information related inter ...
Short-term effect of pollen and spore exposure on allergy morbidity in the Brussels-Capital Region.
years. Based on aeroallergen counts and health insurance datasets, the relationship between daily changes in pollen, fungal spore concentrations and daily changes in reimbursable systemic antihistamine ...
Strategies to detect unauthorized genetically modified organisms in food and feed chain
unauthorized GMO, this PhD aims to improve and strengthen the existing GMO detection system using high-tech approaches. First, as a study case, an overview of genetically modified (GM) rice, developed around the ...
Construction of Nontoxigenic Mutants of Nonproteolytic Clostridium botulinum NCTC 11219 by Insertional Mutagenesis and Gene Replacement.
strain, the botulinum toxin gene (bont/E) was insertionally inactivated with a retargeted intron using the ClosTron system. In the second strain, bont/E was exchanged for an erythromycin resistance gene ...
Biotech Rice: Current developments and future detection challenges in food and feed chain
choice, regulatory frameworks were established in many countries around the world, such as in Europe. Their implementations, including detection systems usually based on qPCR, are becoming complex and ...
