Modelling grass pollen load in temperate and Mediterranean European areas based on source spatial distribution
Pollen Integral (API n) for stations in the Iberian Peninsula and Central Europe was calculated for a minimum of 10 years during the last two decades. Years with API n values below the 10th percentile and ...
Influenza like-illness surveillance using a Belgian sentinel network of nursing homes: results of October 2022 onwards
(week 16), the incidence remained below the low threshold (7 per 1,000 residents per week). From August 28, 2023 (week 35) onwards, ILI incidence increased again with the approaching start of the flu ...
Method Development and Validation of an Aerosol Sampling Technique for the Analysis of Nicotine in Electronic Cigarette Aerosols
β-expectation tolerance intervals remained below the acceptance limits of ±20%. Within-run repeatability and intermediate precision were considered acceptable since the highest RSD value obtained was below 5%. ...
Development, validation, and application of a multimatrix UHPLC-MS/MS method for quantification of Datura-type alkaloids in food
in the range of 70-120%, and repeatability and intermediate precision were below 20%. The method was successfully applied in a proficiency testing exercise as well as in the analysis of various ...
Effects of long-term exposure to 50 Hz magnetic fields on cell viability, genetic damage, and sensitivity to mutagen-induced damage.
Mertens Source: Heliyon, Volume 9, Issue 3 (2023) Abstract: Until today, it remains controversial whether long-term exposure to extremely low-frequency magnetic fields (ELF- MF) below the legislative ...
Global estimates of incidence and mortality of cervical cancer in 2020: a baseline analysis of the WHO Global Cervical Cancer Elimination Initiative.
a public health problem (ie, to reduce the incidence of the disease below a threshold of 4 cases per 100 000 women-years). We aimed to assess the extent of global inequalities in cervical cancer incidence ...
Re‐evaluation of calcium carbonate (E 170) as a food additive in foods for infants below 16 weeks of age and follow‐up of its re‐evaluation as food additive for uses in foods for all population groups
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF); Younes, Maged; Aquilina, Gabriele; Castle, Laurence; Degen, Gisela; Engel, Karl‐Heinz; Fowler, Paul J; Frutos Fernandez, Maria Jose; Fürst, Pet ...
Re‐evaluation of sucrose esters of fatty acids (E 473) as a food additive in foods for infants below 16 weeks of age and follow‐up of its previous evaluations as food additive for uses in foods for all population groups
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF); Younes, Maged; Aquilina, Gabriele; Castle, Laurence; Degen, Gisela; Engel, Karl‐Heinz; Fowler, Paul J; Frutos Fernandez, Maria Jose; Fürst, Pet ...
Development, validation and application of multi-class methods for the analysis of food additives by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry
quantification, accuracy, repeatability, and intra-laboratory reproducibility. Finally, the methods were successfully applied to eighty-four actual samples. All additives were found below authorised levels. ...
Evaluation of the risks for animal health related to the presence of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) in feed for honey bees
between 0.1 and 0.51 μg HMF /per day, respectively. They were well below the BMDL10 of 1.16 μg HMF /bee per day, and thus, no concern was identified. However, when accounting for TRT, the probability that ...
