Spectroscopic approaches for conformity analysis of e-liquids
Though, vaping is not without health concerns. The long-term effects are still not fully understood, and there have been reports of health problems associated with e-cigarette use, including lung damage ...
Assessing the endocrine activity of PAHs using the DRE-, ERE- and PPARγ CALUX bioassays
with our hormonal system by binding to endocrine receptors, resulting in adverse health effects such as reproductive damage, developmental impairment, obesity, diabetes and cancers. The aim of this study ...
A survey of pesticide residues in cut flowers from various countries.
pests which can damage production and marketability. In order to evaluate the average levels of contamination of the cut flowers and to assess the risk for professionals exposed to pesticide residues when ...
A targeted proteomics method to detect urinary biomarkers of kidney disease
influenced by several non-renal factors such as age, race and muscle mass. An accurate detection of kidney damage is crucial to enable more appropriate therapeutic intervention to potentially improve the ...
Cytome assay in two cell lines exposed to ELF-magnetic fields: An investigation on the relation between exposure to ELF-magnetic fields and an alleged increased risk for Alzheimer's disease.
alterations might also be induced by exposure to magnetic fields. At the present time we use the cytome assay to see whether ELF-magnetic fields may induce indirect genetic damage as that seen in ...

The BBEMG research program- A multidisciplinary approach in studying long-term effects of ELF-EMF
comet assays will be used as they cover different kinds of genetic effects, i.e., structural and numerical chromosome aberrations (micronucleus test) and DNA damage (comet assay). Additional other ...

Food contamination with pyrrolizidine alkaloids: the expected and the unexpected
a significant public human health problem from the intake of contaminated food of botanical or animal origin. Human poisoning cases have been documented; they are characterized by acute and chronic liver damage ...
UHPLC-MS/MS methods for the quantification of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in a wide range of food matrices and exposure assessment for the Belgian population
and chronic liver damage, pulmonary hypertension, cardiac or kidneys injuries, and can lead to death. Therefore, the development of efficient analytical methods is required to detect and quantify PA s/ ...
