EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2023

according to a coherent framework. To tackle this objective, the disease burden attributable to environmental stressors is estimated using comparative risk assessment (CRA). As this method determines the ...

Novel prediction models for genotoxicity based on biomarker genes in human HepaRG™ cells.

forest (RF), was evaluated. More specifically, the predictive accuracy was compared, the sensitivity to outliers for one or more biomarker genes was assessed, and the prediction performance for 10 ...

Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans

conjunction with and compared to other research tools. The MC s prevalence data was then used to make a preliminary assessment of human exposure and associated public health risk. Initially, methodologies were ...

Implementation of MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry to Identify Fungi From the Indoor Environment as an Added Value to the Classical Morphology-Based Identification Tool

collaboration with Brussels Environment RCIB / CRIPI and identified by both microscopy and MALDI- TOF MS in Sciensano’s Indoor Mycology laboratory. Spectra obtained via  MALDI- TOF MS were compared with data ...

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

compared to the conventional methods. The meat previously spiked with STEC was also used to investigate the difference between Illumina short reads or Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) long reads ...

Validity of self-reported data to assess the prevalence of overweight, hypertension and cholesterol

hypertension) and ICC was used to assess the agreement between SR and measured BMI. SR high cholesterol was compared to a measured total serum cholesterol >190 mg/dl. Results Risk factor prevalence based on SR ...

Residential green space in association with the methylation status in a CpG site within the promoter region of the placental serotonin receptor HTR2A

HTR2A-methylation when comparing residences with and without the presence of nature in a 50 m and 100 m buffer, respectively. The methylation status of  HTR2A  in placental tissue is positively associated with ...

Development, Validation and Application of a Targeted LC-MS Method for Quantification of Microcystins and Nodularin: Towards a Better Characterization of Drinking Water

decreasing. These resources can only slowly be replenished. An increase in water storage deficits in Europe was observed after the dry summers of 2018 and 2019 compared to the water storage deficits after the ...

Association between temperature and natural mortality in Belgium: Effect modification by individual characteristics and residential environment

pooled using a random-effect meta-analysis to describe the global association. Cold and heat effects were assessed by comparing the mortality risks corresponding to the 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles of the ...
