activity whilst B(a)P exhibited both agonistic and antagonistic activity (lowering E2 activity by 30%). Phenanthrene and anthracene had weak ER α agonist activities. These results indicate that certain PAH ...

Generating the evidence for risk reduction: a contribution to the future of food-based dietary guidelines.

is that the results are better interpretable compared with nutrients or complex dietary patterns. Such results are also easier to transfer into recommendations on primary prevention of non-communicable ...

Investigating the risk-benefit balance of substituting red and processed meat with fish in a Danish diet.

Comparison of SNP-based subtyping workflows for bacterial isolates using WGS data, applied to Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium and serotype 1,4,[5],12:i:.

modifications of the existing workflows were also tested. This allowed us to propose data analysis schemes most suitable for routine SNP-based subtyping applied to S. Typhimurium and S. 1,4,[5],12:i:-. Results ...
