Method development for analysis of nanoplastics in drinking water and milk using transmission electron microscopy (TEM)
risk assessment. This TEM-based approach was validated using polystyrene (PS) reference beads in the size range 60-500 nm, encompassing all analysis steps, from sample preparation to image analysis. Typically, the ...
EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2024
partnering up in a project to map the Environmental Burden of Disease in Flanders (EB oD- FL). The aim of the research is to inventory the burden of disease attributable to all relevant environmental stressors ...
Surveillance van de mortaliteit door alle oorzaken in België, Vlaanderen, Wallonië en Brussel in de winters van 2022-2023 en 2023-2024. Be-MOMO: the Belgian Mortality Monitoring
werd waargenomen bij vrouwen, die alle leeftijdsgroepen trof. Er zijn gewestelijke verschillen, met een lichte ondersterfte in Wallonië (-0,3 %, met 80 sterfgevallen minder dan verwacht), maar een ...

Chemical Characterization of Feminine Intimate Products an Extractables & Leachables Investigation
conditions to identify all chemical constituents (extractables); (2) prioritizing these chemicals based on regulatory hazard information, supplemented by in silico toxicological data; and (3) performing ...
Assessment of receptor-mediated activity (AhR and ERα), mutagenicity, and teratogenicity of metal shredder wastes in Wallonia, Belgium.
the bacterial reverse gene mutation test using the Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100 strains. Except for the sludge sample (site 3), all samples induced a mutagenic response in the TA98 strain (± ...
A validation methodology for size and shape measurement of nanoplastics by transmission electron microscopy
[3]. This validation encompasses all analysis steps, from sample preparation to image analysis, focusing on reference materials composed of polystyrene nanoplastics. By establishing the full measurement ...
Estimating the Uncertainty in Airborne Birch Pollen Modelling
equally important. CV % values up to 50% are found in the southeastern parts of Belgium. By adding up all the model input uncertainties, including the impact of the catkins-ripening temperature, we obtain ...
Evaluation of European Pollen Reanalysis
proportional to the regional pollen production. Not surprisingly, the reanalysis demonstrated a strong improvement of this parameter practically at all stations and all tree genera. The most significant ...
Holography-based aerobiological monitoring: a 2-year intercomparison campaign versus the standard Hirst method in Brussels, Belgium
from the automatic monitor. In all, the holography-based monitoring in real conditions appeared to be relatively reliable within the seasons of most allergenic pollen taxa. Further improvements are ...
