NextGEM: Next-Generation Integrated Sensing and Analytical System for Monitoring and Assessing Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Field Exposure and Health.
possible adverse effects on human health and the environment. This article provides NextGEM’s vision to assure safety for EU citizens when employing existing and future EMF-based telecommunication ...
Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans
additional data on the MC s prevalence in the different products. Moreover, other exposure sources, like freshwater foods (fish), and other cyanotoxins should be included in the future to further develop their ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
laboratories in the future. The method was first tested on minced beef spiked with shiga toxin-producing E.coli (STEC) at very low level (5 CFU /25g). After enrichment for 16 or 24 hours in buffered peptone ...
Residential green space in association with the methylation status in a CpG site within the promoter region of the placental serotonin receptor HTR2A
maternal green space exposure. Future research is needed to understand better how these epigenetic changes are related to functional modifications in the placenta and the consequent implications for ...
Development, Validation and Application of a Targeted LC-MS Method for Quantification of Microcystins and Nodularin: Towards a Better Characterization of Drinking Water
[6,7]. Increasing the use of surface water could be necessary to meet the current and future water demand. However, the switch to surface water is accompanied by certain pitfalls, as mentioned by the ...
Mapping abundance distributions of allergenic tree species in urbanized landscapes: A nation-wide study for Belgium using forest inventory and citizen science data
variations of abundance distributions both within the urban fabric and along the urban–rural gradient. Species abundance modelling can offer a better understanding of the existing and potential future allergy ...
Deepening of In Silico Evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 Detection RT-qPCR Assays in the Context of New Variants
future SARS-CoV-2 testing. Given the potential threat of the new variants, it is crucial to assess if they can still be correctly targeted by the primers and probes of the RT-qPCR assays. Our study ...
Use of Whole Genome Sequencing Data for a First in Silico Specificity Evaluation of the RT-qPCR Assays Used for SARS-CoV-2 Detection.
of future RT-qPCR tests, as well as verifying that the former methods are still capable of detecting circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants. Health Topics: Effectiveness and safety of vaccines, medicines and ...
Lineages Within the Trichophyton rubrum Complex.
confirm these taxa as four monophyletic species. Our results also suggest that strains formerly identified as T. kuryangei and T. megninii should be considered in future taxonomic studies. Health Topics: ...
Nanomaterials for food applications: Analytical challenges and practical solutions for enforcing labeling of nanoingredients in food products in the European Union
inorganic NP s in food. It further highlights the future challenges of analyzing organic and carbon-based nanomaterials. Health Topics: Health and environment Food consumption and food safety Nanomaterials ...
