EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2023
Selection of risk factors: Which risk factors are included in the study and how is exposure quantified as a metric? Exposure assessment: how to measure or model exposure to the risk factors in the population? ...
Pollutant exposure and myocardial injury: Protocol and progress report for a toxicological systematic mapping review.
conducting toxicological systematic reviews, we selected 362 out of 8111 (17%), (67%), and combined (16%) studies for 129 potential cardiotoxic environmental pollutants, including heavy metals (29%), air ...
EFSA Project on the use of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) for the hazard assessment of nanofibres. Lot 1, nanocellulose oral exposure: gastrointestinal digestion, nanofibres uptake and local effects
(iii) assessment of any digestion or degradation of NC by the human microbiome. Eight NC samples belonging to the three NC types, plus a comparator in the micro-range, were selected as study materials and ...
Novel prediction models for genotoxicity based on biomarker genes in human HepaRG™ cells.
methodologies (NAM s) to identify molecular events underlying the genotoxic mode of action of chemicals. Previously, we developed the GENOMARK biomarker, consisting of 84 genes selected based on whole genomics ...

Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
therefore a selection marker is often used to detect the bacteria who have included the modification in their genome. Antimicrobial resistance genes are often used as one of these markers. The construct may ...
Comparison of 6 DNA extraction methods for isolation of high yield of high molecular weight DNA suitable for shotgun metagenomics Nanopore sequencing to detect bacteriaAbstractBackgroundResultsConclusion
From the obtained results, the Quick- DNA HMW MagBead Kit (Zymo Research) was selected as producing the best yield of pure HMW DNA. Furthermore, this kit allowed an accurate detection, by Nanopore ...
A Summer of Cyanobacterial Blooms in Belgian Waterbodies: Microcystin Quantification and Molecular Characterizations
different protocols and is restricted to some selected recreational ponds and lakes. Therefore, a global assessment based on the comparison of existing datasets is not possible. For this study, 79 water ...
Air pollution in association with mental and self-rated health and the mediating effect of physical activity
(BC) were estimated at the participants’ residence by a high resolution spatiotemporal model. Multivariate logistic regressions were carried out taking into account a priori selected covariates. Results ...
What triggers selective daily mobility among older adults? A study comparing trip and environmental characteristics between observed path and shortest path.
Place (2021) Abstract: Interest is growing in neighborhood effects on health beyond individual’s home locations. However, few studies accounted for selective daily mobility bias. Selective mobility of 470 ...
