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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
Development of a QuEChERS-Based UHPLC-MS/MS Method for Simultaneous Determination of Six Alternaria Toxins in Grapes
determination of alternariol (AOH), altenuene (ALT), tentoxin (TEN), altenusin (ALS), tenuazonic acid (TeA), and alternariol monomethyl ether (AME) in grapes was developed by ultra-high-performance liquid ...
