EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2023

Selection of risk factors: Which risk factors are included in the study and how is exposure quantified as a metric? Exposure assessment: how to measure or model exposure to the risk factors in the population? ...

Pollutant exposure and myocardial injury: Protocol and progress report for a toxicological systematic mapping review.

conducting toxicological systematic reviews, we selected 362 out of 8111 (17%), (67%), and combined (16%) studies for 129 potential cardiotoxic environmental pollutants, including heavy metals (29%), air ...

Novel prediction models for genotoxicity based on biomarker genes in human HepaRG™ cells.

methodologies (NAM s) to identify molecular events underlying the genotoxic mode of action of chemicals. Previously, we developed the GENOMARK biomarker, consisting of 84 genes selected based on whole genomics ...

Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety

therefore a selection marker is often used to detect the bacteria who have included the modification in their genome. Antimicrobial resistance genes are often used as one of these markers. The construct may ...

Evaluation of the types, efficient use and health risks of application of silver-based biocides to provide antimicrobial properties to face masks applied during the Covid-19 crisis

biocides in a selection of face masks on the Belgian market and intended to be worn by the general public. Following types of silver-based biocides were demonstrated: (i) Ag+ ions, (ii) metallic Ag0 NP ...

A Summer of Cyanobacterial Blooms in Belgian Waterbodies: Microcystin Quantification and Molecular Characterizations

different protocols and is restricted to some selected recreational ponds and lakes. Therefore, a global assessment based on the comparison of existing datasets is not possible. For this study, 79 water ...

Air pollution in association with mental and self-rated health and the mediating effect of physical activity

(BC) were estimated at the participants’ residence by a high resolution spatiotemporal model. Multivariate logistic regressions were carried out taking into account a priori selected covariates. Results ...
