Development, Validation and Application of a Targeted LC-MS Method for Quantification of Microcystins and Nodularin: Towards a Better Characterization of Drinking Water

(PPIIA), disrupting cell growth and metabolism [15,16]. When ingested, these toxins are transported by the bile salts to the liver, potentially causing liver damage [17,18,19]. Health Topics:  Food ...

Occurrence of (suspected) genotoxic flavoring substances in Belgian alcohol-free beers.

Keywords: beer Belgium DNA Damage Flavoring Agents Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Abstract: The regulatory landscape of flavorings is evolving, thereby putting pressure on control laboratories to ...

Safety assessment of titanium dioxide (E171) as a food additive.

With respect to genotoxicity, the Panel concluded that TiO particles have the potential to induce DNA strand breaks and chromosomal damage, but not gene mutations. No clear correlation was observed ...

Identifying nanodescriptors to predict the toxicity of nanomaterials: a case study on titanium dioxide

modelling. Agglomerate size as a nanodescriptor was well associated with biological endpoints such as DNA damage and/or cytotoxicity. We conclude that, agglomerate size is an important nanodescriptor to assess ...

Phytochemical screening, antioxidant, anticoagulant and in vitro toxic and genotoxic properties of aerial parts extracts of Fumaria officinalis L. growing in Tunisia

the bacterial Vitotox test. This was confirmed in the comet assay which was conducted on human C3A cells, except for the methanolic extract where DNA damage appeared to be significantly increased at ...

Plasticizers and bisphenol A, in packaged foods sold in the Tunisian markets: study of their acute in vivo toxicity and their environmental fate.

fruit juices (0.4 mg/kg), and chocolate (0.884 mg/kg). The obtained data in vivo clearly showed that the acute administration of BBP caused hepatic and renal damage as demonstrated by an increase in ...

Pyrrolizidine alkaloids in herbs and related foodstuffs (PASHERBS)

intake of contaminated food of botanical or animal origin. Human poisoning cases have been documented; they are characterized by acute and chronic liver damage, pulmonary hypertension, cardiac or kidneys ...

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/ ...
