Strategies to detect unauthorized genetically modified organisms in food and feed chain
(EU). However, the implementation of these legislations by the enforcement laboratories is becoming complex due mainly to the increasing number and diversity of GMO. To cope with the problematic of EU ...
Evaluation of the migration of chemicals from baby bottles under standardised and duration testing conditions.
bottles, since it resulted in a lower release of substances afterwards. Repeated use of baby bottles under ‘real-life’ conditions showed no increase in the migration of investigated compounds and, after some ...
Current and new approaches in GMO detection: challenges and solutions
https://www.sciensano.be/en/biblio/current-and-new-approaches-gmo-detection-challenges-and-solutions
However, given the increasing number and diversity of GMO developed and put on the market around the world, some technical hurdles could be encountered with the qPCR technology, mainly owing to its inherent ...
Statistical framework for detection of Genetically Modified Organisms based on Next Generation Sequencing
number and diversity of genetically modified (GM) crops has significantly increased, their analysis based on real-time PCR (qPCR) methods is becoming increasingly complex and laborious. While several ...
Cereulide food toxin, beta cell function and diabetes: Facts and hypotheses.
Abstract: The incidence of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes is increasing and although environmental pollutants are believed to be potential culprits, the extent to which they can be held responsible remains ...
New trait-specific qualitative SYBR®Green qPCR methods to expand the panel of GMO screening methods used in the CoSYPS
GMO becomes more important, led to the development of a time and cost-effective screening approach. Moreover, the GM elements that are utilised in the transgenic inserts also become increasingly ...
Hair mercury and urinary cadmium levels in Belgian children and their mothers within the framework of the COPHES/DEMOCOPHES projects.
cadmium levels increased with age, no trend was found for hair mercury content, except the fact that mothers hold higher levels than children. The hair mercury content increased significantly with the ...
An innovative and integrated approach based on DNA walking to identify unauthorised GMOs
frequency of unauthorised genetically modified organisms (GMO s) being present in the European food and feed chain will increase significantly. Therefore, we have developed a strategy to identify unauthorised ...
An innovative integrated approach based on DNA walking to identify unauthorized GMOs
modified organisms (GMO s) being present in the European food/feed chain will increase significantly. Rice already constitutes a challenge for laboratories developing methods to detect unauthorized GMO s. ...
Follow-up of the Bacillus cereus emetic toxin production in penne pasta under household conditions using liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry.
/g and cereulide production of about 500 ng/g already after 3 days of storage at 25 °C. Interestingly, a constant increase of the toxin was noticed during incubation at ambient temperature storage: the ...
