Assessment of estrogenic compounds in paperboard for dry food packaging with the ERE-CALUX bioassay
a bioanalytical tool to investigate estrogenic activities of paperboard food packaging and its characteristics, including recycling rate and printing ink. A “worst case” scenario with full extraction is compared to ...
Plasticizers and bisphenol A, in packaged foods sold in the Tunisian markets: study of their acute in vivo toxicity and their environmental fate.
biochemical parameters as well as the activities of plasma marker enzymes such as alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, blood urea nitrogen, glucose, ...
Evaluation of the potential health risks of substances migrating from polycarbonate replacement baby bottles.
the potential migration risks associated with these alternative materials were investigated. First, all substances were evaluated for endocrine disruptive (ED) activity by using different existing lists ...
Study of the possible migration risks of food contact materials for children under 3 years
process, the genotoxicity and endocrine activity of the identified migrants were evaluated by the partner universities participating in the ALTPOLYCARB project using a battery of in vitro assays. Chapter 5.1 ...
Comparing the endocrine activity (ER, AR, Trb and PPARy) of BPA and other bisphenols
Publication Type: Scientific poster, presentation or proceeding Authors: Heidi Demaegdt; Annick Evrard; Rembert Deraedt; Marie-Louise Scippo; Marc Muller Source: 7th Biodetectors Conference, Bio detections Systems, Issue BDS, Istanbul (2013) Keywords: BPA ...
In vitro model to study the endocrine disrupting activity of migration products from plastic food contact materials
ALTPOLYCARB project which aims to study the migration products of alternative to polycarbonate and their endocrine disruptor activities. The first part was to have an overview of the different polymers ...
Evaluation of a screening system for obesogenic compounds: screening of endocrine disrupting compounds and evaluation of the PPAR dependency of the effect.
Transcriptional Activation Abstract: Recently the environmental obesogen hypothesis has been formulated, proposing a role for endocrine disrupting compounds (EDC s) in the development of obesity. To evaluate this ...
