Towards a Better Quantification of Cyanotoxins in Fruits and Vegetables: Validation and Application of an UHPLC-MS/MS-Based Method on Belgian Products
for irrigation. We developed and validated an analytical method to quantify eight microcystin congeners (MC s) and nodularin (NOD) using ultra high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem ...
Development of a reliable UHPLC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of zearalenone and zearalenone-14-glucoside in various feed products
ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method (UHPLC- MS / MS) was developed for the simultaneous determination of two mycotoxins, that is, zearalenone (ZEN) and zearalenone-14-glucoside ...
The CIVISANO protocol: a mixed-method study about the role of objective and perceived environmental factors on physical activity and eating behavior among socioeconomically disadvantaged adults
identify and discuss possible local interventions and evaluate the participatory processes of the project. Methods This study (2020–2023) will use community-based participatory tools, involving collaborative ...
Multidimensional Fingerprint Development for the Detection of Tribulus terrestris in Plant Food Supplements
5 orthogonal wavelengths were selected. The developed method was tested for specificity in different triturations (½0, 1/15, 1/10, ⅕ and ½). These were prepared using 10 blank matrices and lactose. In most ...
CHROMATOGRAPHIC FINGERPRINT DEVELOPMENT FOR THE DETECTION OF TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS IN PLANT FOOD SUPPLEMENTS
Liquid Chro-matography- Diode-Array detector (UHPLC – DAD) and evaluated the presence of TT in 20 unknown illegal plant food supplements by using the developed fingerprinting method. Method: UHPLC- DAD was ...
Measuring mental health burden in humanitarian settings: a critical review of assessment tools
assessment tools and their use in populations affected by disasters and conflicts. Method: Tools that assess posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, substance use disorder, and general mental health were ...
ESCAIDE 2022: Translating the COVID-19 epidemiological situation into policies and measures: the Belgian experience
range of topics. Among those, a weekly assessment of the epidemiological situation was performed to guide policy makers. We present here the method used for this assessment, and the link with ...
Development of a taxon-specific real-time PCR method targeting the Bacillus subtilis group to strengthen the control of genetically modified bacteria in fermentation products
commercial microbial fermentation products. In addition, this method was developed to be compatible with the PCR-based strategy that was recently developed for the detection of unauthorized GM bacteria. This ...
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 ...
Organizing the health interview survey at the local level: design of a pilot study.
BACKGROUND: The local Health Interview Study (LHIS) was developed to gain health information at the level of the municipality in Flanders, the northern part of Belgium. It enables municipalities to make ...
