Discrimination of three genetically close Aspergillus species by using high resolution melting analysis applied to indoor air as case study.
versicolor, A. creber and A. sydowii. However, this study could be considered as a study case demonstrating that HRM based on existing qPCR assays, allows a more accurate identification of indoor air ...
Mechanisms Linking Colorectal Cancer to the Consumption of (Processed) Red Meat: A Review.
Factors Abstract: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in the world. The vast majority of CRC cases have been linked to environmental causes rather than to heritable genetic ...
Screening of endocrine activity of compounds migrating from plastic baby bottles using a multi-receptor panel of in vitro bioassays.
2 cases for the oestrogen receptor and 4 cases for the PPAR γ. Health Topics: Food consumption and food safety Consommation et sécurité alimentaires Voedselconsumptie en –veiligheid Service: Contaminants ...
Evaluation of the potential health risks of substances migrating from polycarbonate replacement baby bottles.
Concern (TTC) approach. In case the estimated exposure to the unlisted substance exceeded the human exposure TTC value, a more indepth risk assessment was performed. Based on the results of both parts of ...
Strategies to detect unauthorized GMO in the food and feed chain (PhD thesis)

GMO detection system using high-tech approaches. First, as a study case, an overview of genetically modified (GM) rice, developed around the world was carried out to collect information related inter ...
Compensatory Mutations of Rifampin Resistance Are Associated with Transmission of Multidrug-Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing Genotype Strains in China.
RIF-resistant isolates harbored nonsynonymous mutations in the rpoA (n = 6) or rpoC (n = 83) gene. The proportion of rpoC mutations was significantly higher in new cases (P = 0.023) and in strains with the rpoB ...
Biotech Rice: Current developments and future detection challenges in food and feed chain
system applied to unauthorized GMO. Scope and approach To illustrate this problem, the case of rice, one of the leading staple crops, was investigated. An overview of worldwide developed biotech rice ...
