Strategy for the identification of micro-organisms producing food and feed products: Bacteria producing food enzymes as study case
regulations require safety assessments of food enzymes (FE) before their commercialization. FE are mainly produced by micro-organisms, whose viable strains nor associated DNA can be present in the final ...
Detection strategy targeting a chloramphenicol resistance gene from genetically modified bacteria in food and feed products
associated recombinant DNA. Although the use of AMR genes gives rise to public health and environmental concerns regarding their potential acquisitions by pathogens and gut microbiota, no method targeting AMR ...
Food groups and risk of coronary heart disease, stroke and heart failure: A systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis of prospective studies
about the amounts of food associated with the greatest change in risk of specific cardiovascular outcomes and about the quality of meta-evidence is limited. Therefore, the aim of this meta-analysis was to ...
Simultaneous determination of parabens, bisphenols and alkylphenols in human placenta by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry
that fetal exposure to these compounds occurs. The method will be useful for studies to evaluate the health effects associated with this prenatal exposure. Health Topics: Perturbateurs endocriniens ...
Migration of mineral oil from cardboard packaging for food: Identification of the hazards and assessment of the exposure of the Belgian population
insights in the possible health risks associated with MOAH exposure. Based on these scenarios, adverse human health effects could not be excluded highlighting the need for more data to perform a more ...
Simultaneous determination of parabens, bisphenols and alkylphenols in human placenta by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry
these compounds occurs. The method will be useful for studies to evaluate the health effects associated with this prenatal exposure. Health Topics: Health and environment Food consumption and food safety ...
A probabilistic approach for risk-benefit assessment of food substitutions: A case study on substituting meat by fish
difference model Abstract: Accounting for substitution of foods is inevitable when evaluating health impact of dietary changes. But substitution behavior and the associated health impact may vary between ...
Generating the evidence for risk reduction: a contribution to the future of food-based dietary guidelines.
categorical comparisons, but also on linear and non-linear dose-response associations. Risk of bias of the individual studies of the meta-analysis should be assessed, rated and the overall credibility of the ...
zDALY: An adjusted indicator to estimate the burden of zoonotic diseases.
to the DALY associated with human ill health to give a modified DALY. This is referred to as the “zDALY”. ALE s could also be estimated using willingness-to-pay for animal health or survey tools to ...
Do current fortification and supplementation programs assure adequate intake of fat-soluble vitamins in Belgian infants, toddlers, pregnant women, and lactating women?
35% of lactating women had an inadequate vitamin A intake. Conversely, excessive vitamin A intakes were associated with consumption of liver (products). Furthermore, 22% of infants were at risk for ...
