Strategies to detect unauthorized genetically modified organisms in food and feed chain
transgenic cassette and the plant genome as well as the associations of elements typically found in transgenic constructs allow to confirm the presence of GMO in food/feed matrices. Due to its good performance ...
An innovative and integrated approach based on DNA walking to identify unauthorised GMOs
unauthorised GMO s is assessed by the qPCR SYBR ®Green technology targeting the terminator 35S pCAMBIA element. Second, its presence is confirmed via the characterisation of the junction between the transgenic ...
On-line solid-phase extraction with ultra performance liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry for the detection of nicotine, cotinine and trans-3'-hydroxycotinine in urine to strengthen human biomonitoring and smoking cessation studies.
biomonitoring projects as they made it possible to analyze large series of samples in a fast, sensitive, robust and cost-efficient manner. Health Topics: Food consumption and food safety Consommation et sécurité ...
Exposure to domoic acid through shellfish consumption in Belgium.
gastrointestinal symptoms and neurological signs. However it is assumed that there might be some chronic problems with repetitive exposures to the toxin in animals. In humans this is greatly unknown and it is mostly ...
Prevalence and levels of Bacillus cereus emetic toxin in rice dishes randomly collected from restaurants and comparison with the levels measured in a recent foodborne outbreak.
Bacillus cereus emetic strains in the environment has been shown to be very low, there is a lack of information on the prevalence of its toxin, cereulide, in food. Yet, the rice leftovers of a family ...
A review of dietary and non-dietary exposure to bisphenol-A
non-food sources, exposures through dust, thermal paper, dental materials, and medical devices were summarized. Based on the available data for these exposure sources, it was concluded that the exposure to ...
Dietary intake of artificial sweeteners by the Belgian population.
exposed to higher levels. It was concluded that the Belgian population is not at risk of exceeding the established ADIs for sweeteners. Health Topics: Food consumption and food safety Consommation et ...
Dietary intake of hexabromocyclododecane diastereoisomers (α-, β-, and γ-HBCD) in the Belgian adult population.
consistent with the pattern found in the two food groups contributing the most to the EDI: meat (products) and the group of “other” products. Anyway, it has to be noted that diastereomeric distribution of HBCD ...
Mycotoxin analyses in some home produced eggs in Belgium reveal small contribution to the total daily intake.
Abstract: Low levels of deoxynivalenol (DON, range: 2.6-17.9 ng/g) and its metabolite de-epoxy- DON (DOM-1, range: 2.4-23.7 ng/g) were found in 20 home-produced egg samples collected in Belgium during autumn ...
Assessment of the chemical contamination in home-produced eggs in Belgium: general overview of the CONTEGG study.
dioxin-like PCB s), organochlorine pesticides, trace elements, PAH s, brominated flame retardants and mycotoxins. The study design, sampling methodology and primary conclusions of the study are given. It was ...
