Modeling the migration of chemicals from food contact materials to food: The MERLIN-expo/VERMEER toolbox.
food is a key step in the safety assessment of such materials. In this paper, a simple mechanistic model describing the migration of chemicals from FCM to food was combined with quantitative ...
Flanders and Brussels join forces to tackle animal testing
alternative methods,” Weyts said. Human materials and computer models In Belgium, about half a million test animals are used for scientific purposes every year, most often in biomedical research into new ...
Burden of disease of dietary exposure to four chemical contaminants in Denmark, 2019
Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALY s) attributable to dietary exposure to the chemicals. In all models, we propagated uncertainty around the input parameters through the calculations using Monte Carlo simulation. We ...
