Strategies to detect unauthorized genetically modified organisms in food and feed chain
transgenic cassette and the plant genome as well as the associations of elements typically found in transgenic constructs allow to confirm the presence of GMO in food/feed matrices. Due to its good performance ...
In vitro model to study the endocrine disrupting activity of migration products from plastic food contact materials
manufacture baby feeding bottles. In a recent opinion, the Superior Health Council’s issued its concern regarding the currently use of alternatives to polycarbonate in these materials. This work is part of the ...
An innovative and integrated approach based on DNA walking to identify unauthorised GMOs
unauthorised GMO s is assessed by the qPCR SYBR ®Green technology targeting the terminator 35S pCAMBIA element. Second, its presence is confirmed via the characterisation of the junction between the transgenic ...
An innovative integrated approach based on DNA walking to identify unauthorized GMOs
assessed by the qPCR SYBR ®Green technology targeting the terminator 35S (t35S) pCAMBIA element, which allows discriminating pCAMBIA family vectors. Second, its presence is confirmed via the characterization ...
Evaluation of a screening system for obesogenic compounds: screening of endocrine disrupting compounds and evaluation of the PPAR dependency of the effect.
step, a range of EDC s, used in personal and household care products (parabens, musks, phthalates and alkylphenol compounds), were tested to further evaluate the obesogenicity screening assay for its ...
A proteomics approach for the quantification of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxins a and b in several matrices using uplc-msms analysis.
endogenous tryptic peptides and show the same chemical behavior as the endogenous peptides. Both the endogenous peptide and its respective IS should elute from the column at the same retention time, assuring ...

Mild iodine deficiency in pregnancy in Europe and its consequences for cognitive and psychomotor development of children: a review.
iodine deficient areas, iodine deficiency during pregnancy frequently appears in case the maternal thyroid gland cannot meet the demand for increasing production of thyroid hormones (TH) and its effect may ...
Transmission Dynamics of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Pigs.
other livestock. In Europe and North America, clonal complex (CC) 398 appears to be the predominant lineage involved. Especially worrisome is its capacity to contaminate humans in close contact with ...
Intake and dietary sources of haem and non-haem iron among European adolescents and their association with iron status and different lifestyle and socio-economic factors.
BACKGROUND / OBJECTIVES: Adolescents are at risk of iron deficiency because of their high iron requirements. The aims of this study were: (1) to assess iron intake, its determinants and its most important food ...
