Citrinin Determination in Food and Food Supplements by LC-MS/MS: Development and Use of Reference Materials in an International Collaborative Study
containing citrinin (CIT) and their successful application in a method validation study (MVS) in order to harmonize CIT determination in food and food supplements are demonstrated. CIT-contaminated materials ...
Identifying nanodescriptors to predict the toxicity of nanomaterials: a case study on titanium dioxide
experimental variations determine the outcome of modelling using three case studies. We used TiO2in vitro data from our previously published study as case study 1 and two other external case studies (case study ...
Food insecurity and its association with changes in nutritional habits among adults during the COVID-19 confinement measures in Belgium.
health surveys were conducted during March-May 2020. Multinomial logistic regression models were used to determine associations between self-reported changes in fruit, vegetable, soft drink and sweet and ...
The effect of a shelf placement intervention on sales of healthier and less healthy breakfast cereals in supermarkets: A co-designed pilot study.
shelf placement as a strategy (265, 88%) but noted brand preferences and price were more salient determinants of purchases. Retailers were similarly supportive but balancing profit, health/nutrition and ...
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, ...
Physicochemical Characterization of the Pristine E171 Food Additive by Standardized and Validated Methods.
spectrometry (spICP- MS). The evaluation of selected sample preparation protocols allowed identifying and optimizing the critical factors that determine the measurement of the particle size distribution by TEM. ...
Assessing the receptor-mediated activity of PAHs using AhR-, ERα- and PPARγ- CALUX bioassays
reported to have carcinogenic and/or mutagenic properties, another possible negative health impact is their endocrine disrupting potential. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine both the ...
Detection strategy targeting a chloramphenicol resistance gene from genetically modified bacteria in food and feed products
First, the potential presence of the AMR gene is detected by real-time PCR. Next, its full-length is evaluated by a nested- PCR amplifying a large fragment of its sequence to determine the risks of likely ...
Simultaneous determination of parabens, bisphenols and alkylphenols in human placenta by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry
chromatography – tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC- MS / MS) method for the simultaneous determination of four parabens (methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, and butyl-paraben (MeP, EtP, PrP, BuP), four bisphenols (BP) (BPA, ...
Open Lab Application for the Characterization of Nanomaterials by Transmission Electron Microscopy
determine whether a material should be considered as a nanomaterial (NM) for legislative and policy purposes in the EU (201⅙96/ EU). The aim is to further apply and adapt this current Recommendation to sector ...
