Modelling the pesticide transfer during tea and herbal tea infusions by the identification of critical infusion parameters.
were the criteria that most influenced the pesticide transfer. Interestingly, infusion parameters that are individual and area dependent such as infusion time, temperature and water hardness, did not ...
Development of novel analytical methods to trace small micro- and nanoplastics in food matrices
innovative methods to apply in the individualization, quantification and characterization of small micro- and nanoplastics in food matrices, such as drinking water and milk, in the context of PlasticTrace ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
water, the DNA was extracted with two classical commercial kits or with a kit performing depletion of the host DNA. The extracted DNA also was amplified or not using Phi29 polymerase. We showed that all ...
Development of a reliable UHPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of zearalenone and zearalenone-14-glucoside in various feed products
in water as the loading solution, 50% methanol in water as the washing solvent, and 5 ml of methanol as the elution solvent yielded the optimal purification efficiencies. The established method was ...
Pesticide Use in Market Gardening and Perceived Risk of Consumers Exposed to Pesticide Residues
that all consumers washed their vegetables before consumption, but more than half of the respondents (54%) wash their vegetables for less than a minute (simply passing them under running water). In the ...
Development, Validation and Application of a Targeted LC-MS Method for Quantification of Microcystins and Nodularin: Towards a Better Characterization of Drinking Water
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Wannes Van Hassel; Bart Huybrechts; Julien Masquelier; Annick Wilmotte; Mirjana Andjelkovic Source: Water, Volume 14, Issue 8 (2022) ...
Development and Validation of a UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS Method for Quantification of Oleandrin and Other Cardiac Glycosides and Evaluation of Their Levels in Herbs and Spices from the Belgian Market
urine were diluted with acidified water and purified on Oasis® HLB SPE cartridges. Limits of quantification were in the range of 1.5–15 ng/g for herbs and 0.025–1 ng/mL for urine. The mean recovery of ...
Habitual food consumption of the Belgian population in 2014-2015 and adherence to food-based dietary guidelines.
cereals (83%) and water and sugar-free drinks (73%). Males had higher consumption of most food groups than females, thereby complying more often with FBDG. For all food groups, except dairy products and ...
Risk to human health related to the presence of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid and perfluorooctanoic acid in food
and ?Milk and dairy products?, ?Drinking water? and ?Fish and other seafood? for PFOA. PFOS and PFOA are readily absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, excreted in urine and faeces, and do not undergo ...
Plasticizers and bisphenol A, in packaged foods sold in the Tunisian markets: study of their acute in vivo toxicity and their environmental fate.
