composition table and from 104 to 109 μg/d using the German food composition table. The percentage of preschoolers with an iodine intake below the estimated average requirement (65 μg/d) decreased from 5-12 to ...
Processing factors of several pesticides and degradation products in carrots by household and industrial processing
washing, the residual concentrations were below 5 ppb. However it was observed that the level of pesticide residues was not reduced by microwave cooking. The pesticide residues remaining after previous ...
Assssment of human exposure to benzene through foods from the Belgian market
all foods was 0.020 µg kg bw d(-1) according to a probabilistic analysis. These values are below the minimum risk level for oral chronic exposure to benzene (0.5 µg kg bw d(-1)). Manuscript versions: ...
Neonatal thyroid-stimulating hormone concentrations in Belgium: a useful indicator for detecting mild iodine deficiency?
below 3% has been proposed as the threshold indicating iodine sufficiency. The objective of the present study was to evaluate feasibility and usefulness of nation-wide neonatal TSH concentration screening ...
Quantification of the trichothecene Verrucarin-A in environmental samples using an antibody-based spectroscopic biosensor
from dwellings. After optimization, the competitive ELISA showed a sensitivity of 7.43 ng/ml of VerA in PBS and a dynamic range below one order of magnitude. The FTIR technique improved the detection of ...
Nucleotide polymorphism-based single-tube test for robust molecular identification of all currently described Brucella species.
profiles for each of the 10 Brucella species described to date and displays discriminatory potential below the species level for some. Since the LCR methodology is insensitive to interference resulting from ...
A rapid and environmental friendly determination of the dithiocarbamate metabolites ethylenethiourea and propylenethiourea in fruit and vegetables by ultra high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.
recoveries were between 65% and 90% for ETU and between 71% and 127% for PTU with RSD s in repeatability and reproducibility conditions below 10% for ETU. This method is rapid (a chromatographic run time of ...
Biosafety in laboratory animal facilities. A practical approach.
Several issues in risk management are discussed and check lists (in annex) describing the containment measures assigned to the different animal biosafety levels (see below) are provided and can be used for ...
Dietary intake of hexabromocyclododecane diastereoisomers (α-, β-, and γ-HBCD) in the Belgian adult population.
and the resulting EDI was substantially below the proposed thresholds. Health Topics: Food consumption and food safety Consommation et sécurité alimentaires Voedselconsumptie en –veiligheid Manuscript ...
