EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2024
according to a coherent framework. To tackle this objective, the disease burden attributable to environmental stressors is estimated using comparative risk assessment (CRA). As this method determines the ...
Chemical Characterization of Feminine Intimate Products an Extractables & Leachables Investigation
hazardous chemicals in these products have emerged.This study provides an accurate overview of potential hazardous chemicals (both organic and inorganic) in FIP s and to determine the quantities that may ...
Bioaccumulation of organic and inorganic contaminants in biota: A long-term evaluation in the Belgian part of the North Sea
Marine Pollution Bulletin, Volume 209 (2024) Keywords: Biota Chemical contamination Disposal sites Metals PAHs Pcbs Abstract: Determining the extent of pollution in the marine environment remains ...
A validation methodology for size and shape measurement of nanoplastics by transmission electron microscopy
uncertainty balance, we aim to determine the accuracy, precision and reliability of NP size and shape characterization by TEM. The method is validated supporting on the Nanosphere size standards 3060A (60 ...
Analyzing the airborne birch and grass pollen monitoring network in Belgium
mode (three days), determining the trajectory of birch and grass pollen observed at the network stations. Nine pollen seasons (2013–2021) were analyzed using ECMWF ERA5 meteorology. Results The network ...
Impact of environmental nitrogen enrichment on birch pollen allergy
representing the nitrogen gradient, was used to determine their allergenicity in pollen-allergic adult patients (n = 60 in total) using ex vivo basophil activation testing (BAT) and specific IgE (sIgE) ...

Assessing uncertainty in airborne birch pollen modelling
uncertainties of the parameters determining the start and end of the season are at least equally important. By accumulating the effects of all investigated model input uncertainties including the impact of the ...
Novel prediction models for genotoxicity based on biomarker genes in human HepaRG™ cells.
misleading positive chemicals exposed at their IC10 concentration was determined. In addition, the applicability of both prediction models on a publicly available gene expression dataset, generated with ...
Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans
analyzed, whereof nine samples contained MC s. Moreover, three samples exceeded the concentration of 1 µg g−1 total microcystins, previously proposed as a guideline value. Microcystis sp. were determined as ...
