Genetically modified crops and aquatic ecosystems: considerations for environmental risk assessment and non-target organism testing
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: K. Carstens; Anderson,J.; Bachman,P.; Adinda De Schrijver; Dively,G.; Federici,B.; Hamer,M.; Gielkens,M.; Jensen,P.; Lamp,W.; Rauschen,S.; Ridley,G.; J. Romeis; Waggoner,A. Source: Transgenic Res ...
Surrogate species selection for assessing potential adverse environmental impacts of genetically engineered insect-resistant plants on non-target organisms
testing Abstract: Most regulatory authorities require that developers of genetically engineered insect-resistant (GEIR) crops evaluate the potential for these crops to have adverse impacts on valued ...
Recommendations for the design of laboratory studies on non-target arthropods for risk assessment of genetically engineered plants
reproducible and test clearly defined risk hypotheses. These properties contribute to the robustness of, and confidence in, environmental risk assessments for GE plants. Data from NTA studies, collected during ...
Detection of genetically modified plant products by protein strip testing: An evaluation of real-life samples
proteins using lateral flow protein strip tests has been evaluated in different matrices. The presence of five major genetically engineered proteins (CP4- EPSPS, CryIAb, Cry9C, PAT /pat and PAT /bar protein) ...
Activity of cefotiam in combination with beta-lactam antibiotics on enterobacterial hospital strains36636
The following compounds were tested: cefamandole, cefazolin, cefmenoxime, cefotaxime, cefotiam, ceftazidime, cefuroxime, mecillinam and piperacillin. The synergistic effect varied markedly. The ...
Four sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in Belgian general practice: first results (2013-2014) of a nationwide continuing surveillance study.
Incompleteness of reports about patients with STI sexual risk histories is important from the perspective of quality of data and of quality of care. Together with the low rates of both HIV testing and discussion ...

Thyroid Cancer Incidence around the Belgian Nuclear Sites, 2000-2014.
hypothesis tests and generalized additive models were performed to test the hypothesis of a gradient in thyroid cancer incidence with increasing levels of surrogate exposures. Residential proximity to the ...
Banana infecting fungus, Fusarium musae, is also an opportunistic human pathogen: are bananas potential carriers and source of fusariosis?
characteristic to F. musae, was also the case for our isolates. In vitro antifungal susceptibility testing revealed no important differences in their susceptibility compared to clinical F. verticillioides strains ...
