A molecular approach for the rapid, selective and sensitive detection of Exophiala jeanselmei in environmental samples: development and performance assessment of a real-time PCR assay
selectivity (100 %), PCR efficiency (95.5 %), dynamic range and repeatability of this qPCR assay were subsequently evaluated. The limit of detection for this qPCR assay was determined to be 1 copy of genomic ...
Selenium content of Belgian cultivated soils and its uptake by field crops and vegetables.
multiple regressions were applied to determine relations between Se concentrations in crops and soil characteristics. Among field crops, wheat is the most important accumulator of selenium but the ...
Mutagenicity, antimutagenicity and cytotoxicity evaluation of South African Podocarpus species
cytotoxicity of the extracts was assessed by determining their NI (50) values (50% inhibition of NRU). RESULTS: The extracts did not show any mutagenic effects against all the tester strains with or without ...

Detection of genetically modified plant products by protein strip testing: An evaluation of real-life samples
Eur. Food Res. Technol., Volume 225, Issue 1, p.49- 57 (2007) Abstract: The determination of the presence of genetically modified plant material by the detection of expressed genetically engineered ...
Quality of laboratory studies assessing effects of Bt-proteins on non-target organisms: minimal criteria for acceptability
of criteria determining their relevance and reliability. As a case-study, this exercise revealed that when not all quality criteria are met, weighing the robustness of the study and its relevance for ...
Biodiversity and human health: mechanisms and evidence of the positive health effects of diversity in nature and green spaces.
mortality. The presence, accessibility, proximity and greenness of green spaces determine the magnitude of their positive health effects, but the role of biodiversity (including species and ecosystem ...
Urban environment and mental health: the NAMED project, protocol for a mixed-method study.
associations between the urban residential environment and mental health, taking respondents’ socioeconomic status and physical health into account. Mental health is determined by the mental health indicators in ...
