New QSAR models to predict chromosome damaging potential based on the in vivo micronucleus test
methods to determine the potential of chemicals to induce mutations at the gene level has been developed over the last decades. Conversely, only few such methods are currently available to predict potential ...
Heat related mortality in the two largest Belgian urban areas: A time series analysis
until 2011 taking into account the effect of air pollution. Methods The threshold in temperature above which mortality increases was determined using segmented regressions for both urban areas. The ...
Physico-chemical characterisation of the fraction of silver (nano)particles in pristine food additive E174 and in E174-containing confectionery
dimension, assessed as minimal Feret diameter, of the fraction of (nano)particles determined by quantitative TEM analysis was 11 ± 4 nm and 18 ± 7 nm (overall mean ± standard deviation), for food additives and ...
Acrylamide in other foods_Determination of acrylamide levels in some food categories and estimation of the exposure for the Belgian population
categories, as targeted by Recommendation (EU) 2019/1888 and the EFSA call. A secondary objective was the determination of the influence of the cooking method used (oven versus deep-fryer) on the production of ...
PT-2020-NRL-TE-FASFC “Determination of As, Cd, Pb and Hg in food supplements"
presents the results of the proficiency test organised by the NRL- TE which focused on the determination of trace elements in food supplements. The results from the PT were treated in Sciensano, Tervuren. ...
Bepaling van spoorelementen in diverse matrices met spectrometische technieken.
elaboration of (new) legislations for products on the Belgian (or European) market. Method During the bachelor thesis we worked on 2 projects regarding the determination of trace elements: 1. Food enzyme ...
Development of a genoserotyping system for the identification of Salmonella serotypes
serotype of the infecting Salmonella. Therefore, the determination of the serotype is a first key diagnostic for Salmonella control. Moreover, 6 serotypes and their variants, i.e. S. Enteritidis, S. Hadar, ...
Phylogeography of Human and Animal Strains: Genetic Fingerprinting of Q Fever in Belgium.
reservoirs. To determine the relationship between animal and human strains, Multiple Locus Variable-number Tandem Repeat Analysis (MLVA) (n=146), Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) (n=92) and Whole Genome ...
Towards a unified classification for human respiratory syncytial virus genotypes.
determine a cutoff value at the lowest point following the major distance peak. Our data show that neither the HVR2 fragment nor the G gene contains sufficient phylogenetic signal to perform reliable ...
Gender‐dependent association between exhaled nitric oxide and the CC16 38AA genotype in young school children
determined using urinary DNA. We measured FeNO, the CC16 protein in urine and nasal lavage fluid and aeroallergen‐specific immunoglobulin E in nasal mucosa fluid. Results Children with the homozygous mutant ...
