Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans
cyanotoxins in food, drinking and recreational water are available in Belgium. Among the main reasons for this data shortage is a lack of publicly sourced, reliable methods to analyze cyanotoxins in food and ...
COMBINATION OF CHEMOMETRICS AND MULTIDIMENSIONAL FINGERPRINTING FOR DETECTION OF REGULATED PLANTS IN PLANT FOOD SUPPLEMENTS
square – discriminate analysis. A minimum of 86% correct classification rate for external test set validation (17 sample for binary dataset and 59 samples for multiclass dataset) was observed for all ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
Ultimately, a validation of the method is still necessary in order to obtain a precise limit of detection based on the analysis of a large dataset of samples. Moreover, other technologies can still be ...
Introduction of WGS in food microbiology: advantages and challenges
make the transition to WGS for the analysis of food isolates. While the advantages of the WGS method are considerable, some challenges still need to be taken into account for routine and uniform ...
Advances in the physicochemical characterization of nanoparticles in a regulatory context.
STEM- EDX analyses for control purposes requiring identification and measurement of specific particles in complex food matrices and mixtures will be presented. Further, approaches to validate these ...
Shotgun metagenomics as a ONE Health tool for better protecting human health
conventional methods in e.g. the field of pathogen detection/characterization along the food chain, starting from the food production environment (including detection of AMR genes) until foodborne outbreak ...
Development of a genoserotyping system for the identification of Salmonella serotypes
of the results in a database to improve the Salmonella surveillance in Belgium. The 4 modules and the DSS were validated by comparison with the classical method, including more than 1300 strains and ...
Validation of single particle ICP-MS for routine sizing and quantification of the fraction of silver nanoparticles in E174 food addititves and confectionery products
counting particles at the same time. A spICP- MS method was developed and validated for sizing and quantifying the fraction of silver nanoparticles in E174 food additives and in products containing E174. The ...
Open Lab Application for the Characterization of Nanomaterials by Transmission Electron Microscopy
specific needs such as food and food contact materials, biocidal products, cosmetics and medical devices. As a consequence there is a growing need for validated characterization methods and for certified ...
Arsenic Speciation Analysis Elucidates the Risk Assesment of Food Supplements with Ingredients of Marine Origin. 9th Nordic Conference on plasma spectrochemistry
organisms. Routine methods for As i analysis in terrestrial matrices do not automatically guarantee a separation of As V and arsenosugars. The objective of this study was to optimize and validate a method to ...
