Development of novel analytical methods to trace small micro- and nanoplastics in food matrices
(NP s), mainly originating by physico-chemical transformation processes, such as aging, degradation and fragmentation. Because of the ease in their detection, several studies have been conducted on ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
the host depletion DNA extraction method. We then investigated the issue of the detection and characterization of genetically modified microorganisms (GMM s) in microbial fermentation products as a case ...
Comparison of 6 DNA extraction methods for isolation of high yield of high molecular weight DNA suitable for shotgun metagenomics Nanopore sequencing to detect bacteriaAbstractBackgroundResultsConclusion
From the obtained results, the Quick- DNA HMW MagBead Kit (Zymo Research) was selected as producing the best yield of pure HMW DNA. Furthermore, this kit allowed an accurate detection, by Nanopore ...

Migration of mineral oil from cardboard packaging for food: Identification of the hazards and assessment of the exposure of the Belgian population
a different toxicological profile, the two fractions were quantified separately using an online combination of liquid chromatography and gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (online LC- GC- FID). ...
Simultaneous determination of parabens, bisphenols and alkylphenols in human placenta by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry
limits of detection and quantification are in the range of 0.1-0.3 ng g−1 and 0.2-0.7 ng g−1, respectively. The applicability of the method was demonstrated on 71 human placenta samples from a Belgian ...
Biological activity conferred by endocrine disrupting chemicals in hospital effluent and river water from the Brussels Region, Belgium
routinely monitored in targeted chemo-analytical methods and can detect them at low amounts (pg/L EEQ, Estrogen EQ uivalence). The bioassay used in this study is the CALUX (Chemically activated luciferase ...
