Identification and characterization of inorganic food additives and pearlescent pigments in sprays for food decoration by STEM-EDX
control laboratories and only limited guidance is currently available3. This study developed electron microscopy-based methods to identify and characterize the particles of individual components in eight ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
laboratories in the future. The method was first tested on minced beef spiked with shiga toxin-producing E.coli (STEC) at very low level (5 CFU /25g). After enrichment for 16 or 24 hours in buffered peptone ...
Targeted High-Throughput Sequencing Enables the Detection of Single Nucleotide Variations in CRISPR/Cas9 Gene-Edited Organisms
enforcement laboratories is required by the competent authorities to guarantee food/feed safety and traceability (2003/1829/ EC; 2003/1830/ EC). However, their detection is potentially challenging at both the ...
Methodological choices in brucellosis burden of disease assessments: A systematic review
Most studies retrieved brucellosis epidemiological data from administrative registries. Incidence data were often estimated on the basis of laboratory-confirmed tests. Not all studies included mortality ...
Development of a taxon-specific real-time PCR method targeting the Bacillus subtilis group to strengthen the control of genetically modified bacteria in fermentation products
complying with the Minimum Performance Requirements for Analytical Methods of GMO Testing that is used as a standard by the GMO enforcement laboratories. The method’s applicability was also tested on 25 ...

Shotgun metagenomics as a ONE Health tool for better protecting human health
laboratories, however without isolation and in a shorter time-frame. This could be achieved to the strain level even in samples with several E. coli strains. The method was also used to solve a Salmonella ...
Development, validation and application of multi-class methods for the analysis of food additives by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry
quantification, accuracy, repeatability, and intra-laboratory reproducibility. Finally, the methods were successfully applied to eighty-four actual samples. All additives were found below authorised levels. ...
