Hazard characterization of Alternaria toxins to identify data gaps and improve risk assessment for human health.

in silico modeling predicts further Alternaria toxins as potential estrogenic factors. Recent studies indicate also an immunosuppressive role of AOH and ATX- II; however, no data are available for the ...

BSFM 2023- L. monocytogenes in Plant-Based Foods: insights from of a recent foodborne outbreak linked to vegan alternative to cheese

Publication Type: Scientific poster, presentation or proceeding Authors: Laurence Delbrassinne; An Van den Bossche; Marie Polet; Wesley Mattheus; Anneline Christiaens; Verhaegen, Bavo; Van Hoorde, ...

Strain-level characterization without culture enrichment? Easing and accelerating outbreak investigation using shotgun metagenomics facilitated with nanopore adaptive sampling

samples during an outbreak investigation requires the samples to be enriched in order to reach detectable levels. However, a bias can occur during the enrichment of the food due to competition between the ...

Integrating VEGA QSAR models in an automated tool to support the risk assessment of non-evaluated food contact material substances

Publication Type: Scientific poster, presentation or proceeding Authors: Ilse Van Overmeire; Streel, Camille; Selvestrel, G; Roncaglioni, Alessandra; Benfenati, Emilio; A Sommovigo; A Manganaro; Els Van Hoeck; Mertens, Birgit Source: QSAR2023 (0) Health T ...

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

had only rarely been associated with human cases of an outbreak, let alone during a real outbreak. Therefore, this PhD centered on the development of shotgun metagenomics methods to study ...

Simultaneous Detection and Quantification of Aflatoxin M1, Eight Microcystin Congeners and Nodularin in Dairy Milk by LC-MS/MS

(AFM1), an emerging mycotoxin of interest, is a potential contaminant in the milk of animals who ingest aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). The toxin is regulated in the European Union under Commission Regulation No ...

Regulatory safety assessment of nanoparticles for the food chain in Europe

testing is the physicochemical characterisation of the pristine material, being an engineered nanomaterial, a nanostructured material or a conventional material that contains a fraction of small particles ...

Microbiological safety of aged meat.

prevented by ensuring a meat surface temperature of-0.5 to 3.0°C, with a relative humidity (RH) of 75-85% and an airflow of 0.2-0.5 m/s for up to 35 days. The main meat spoilage bacteria include spp, spp. ...
