DETERMINATION OF SENSITIZING AND IRRITATING LEACHABLES IN MENSTRUAL HYGIENE PRODUCTS
possibly causing allergic or irritant contact dermatitis. Moreover, due to the lack of specific regulation in the EU, these fragrances can be used freely in the production of MHP s. In previous work, 11 ...
DETERMINATION OF ALLERGENIC FRAGRANCE INGREDIENTS IN FEMININE ABSORBENT HYGIENE PRODUCTS AND LUBRICANTS
identified fragrance ingredient, illustrated in the acquired accuracy profiles. Conclusion: It is concluded that the optimized and validated GC- FID- MS method works well for identification and quantification ...
Improving Burden of Disease and Source Attribution Estimates
quantify the burden of foodborne disease, but there is still much work to be done. While burden estimates are crucial to raising awareness of foodborne diseases, estimating their public health impact, and ...
Initiative for Quality Improvement and Epidemiology in Multidisciplinary Diabetic Foot Clinics (IQED-Foot)- Results of the 4th data collection (audit years 2013-2014)
significantly between audits 3 and 4, suggesting that efforts to reduce the delay are working. Recommended treatment strategies were widely adopted by the centres. Off-loading of plantar mid and hindfoot ulcers ...
Development of molecular tools for rapid detection and quantification of indoor airborne molds to assess their impact on public health
a valuable alternative. In this PhD work, different molecular tools were developed, from simplex to multiplex, to detect and identify indoor airborne fungi. The goal was to improve the detection of fungal ...

unknown transgenic elements could be detected. This work has thus allowed to provide additional strategies to the current GMO detection system in order to characterize a larger spectrum of GMO, both ...
Detection and risk evaluation of counterfeit medicines based on physico-chemical properties: the fingerprint and chemometrics approach
a suitable analytical technique can be selected. In the future, this working strategy could potentially be expanded to other pharmacological classes of counterfeit medicines such as sleeping aids and ...
Strategies to detect unauthorized genetically modified organisms in food and feed chain
information about the targeted sequences, GMO composed only of unknown transgenic elements could be detected. This work has thus allowed to provide additional strategies to the current GMO detection system in ...
