In-vivo expressed Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens recognised in three mouse strains after infection and BCG vaccination.
in vivo murine infection (IVE- TB antigens). To translate these findings towards animal models, we determined which IVE- TB-antigens are recognised by T-cells following Mtb challenge or BCG vaccination ...
Circulation of pertussis and poor protection against diphtheria among middle-aged adults in 18 European countries.
and the European Economic Area (EEA) varies and may not reflect the real situation, while vaccine-induced protection against diphtheria and tetanus seems sufficient. We aimed to determine the ...
Consumer and food product determinants of food wasting: A case study on chicken meat
worldwide, particularly regarding households. This study aims to identify household food wasting segments and to assess the relationship between both consumer and food product determinants and the identified ...
The potential impact of an implemented income redistribution package on obesity prevalence in New Zealand.
determine how income redistribution might affect obesity prevalence. FINDINGS: Absolute individual disposable income was significantly associated with obesity in NZ females (but not males) in a shallow, ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Is the European Health Interview Survey online yet? Response and net sample composition of a web-based data collection.
provides cross-national data on health status, health care and health determinants. So far, 10 of the 30 member states (MS) opted for web-based questionnaires within mixed-mode designs but none used it as ...
Determinants of persistent organic pollutant (POP) concentrations in human breast milk of a cross-sectional sample of primiparous mothers in Belgium
food chain can lead to high pollutant concentrations in human fat-containing tissues and breast milk. Objectives We aimed to identify the maternal characteristics that determined POP concentrations in ...
Validation of a Bioinformatics Workflow for Routine Analysis of Whole-Genome Sequencing Data and Related Challenges for Pathogen Typing in a European National Reference Center: as a Proof-of-Concept.
employed typing schemas (including, among others, core genome multilocus sequence typing), and serogroup determination. We analyzed a core validation dataset of 67 well-characterized samples typed by means ...
