Update of the risk assessment of nickel in food and drinking water

new occurrence data, the updated benchmark dose (BMD) Guidance and newly available scientific information. More than 47,000 analytical results on the occurrence of nickel were used for calculating ...

Spatial and molecular mapping of Pfkelch13 gene polymorphism in Africa in the era of emerging Plasmodium falciparum resistance to artemisinin: a systematic review.

Africa would result in a major public health problem. In this systematic review, we investigate the frequency and spatial distribution of Pfkelch13 mutants in Africa, including mutants linked to PfART-R in ...

prioritised, and specific recommendations were proposed by panel. SETTING: Singapore. PARTICIPANTS: Twenty experts primarily from academia. RESULTS: As compared with international benchmarks, the level of ...

New QSAR models to predict chromosome damaging potential based on the in vivo micronucleus test

results of 718 structurally diverse compounds were collected and applied for the construction of new models by means of the freely available SAR py in silico model building software. Multiple QSAR models ...

QuilA-Adjuvanted T. gondii Lysate Antigens Trigger Robust Antibody and IFNγ+ T Cell Responses in Pigs Leading to Reduction in Parasite DNA in Tissues Upon Challenge InfectionImage

results show that both the vaccine candidate and the TLA immunization elicited strong serum IgG responses and elevated percentages of CD4 + CD8 + IFN γ+ T cells in T. gondii infected pigs. However, the TLA ...

The Belgian health examination survey: objectives, design and methods.

the European Health Examination Survey (EHES) initiative. Finally 1184 individuals participated in the BELHES, resulting in a participation rate of 24.1%. Results for all the core BELHES measurements ...

Phylogeography of Human and Animal Strains: Genetic Fingerprinting of Q Fever in Belgium.

likely linked to specific genomic groups (SNP1 / MLVA B and SNP6 / MLVA C) mostly found in small ruminant strains. Considering the concordance between Belgian and European results, these considerations ...

Risk assessment of ochratoxin A in food

characterisation of neoplastic effects, a BMDL10  of 14.5 μg/kg bw per day was calculated from kidney tumours seen in rats. The estimation of chronic dietary exposure resulted in mean and 95th percentile levels ...

Biological monitoring of exposure to pesticide residues among Belgian florists

concentrations of pesticide residues and metabolites in urine samples were analyzed with a multiresidue liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method, after an ethyl acetate extraction. The results are ...
