THE ANALYSIS OF ILLICIT DRUGS COLLECTED DURING A SUMMER FESTIVAL AND EVALUATION OF THE NARCOREADER FOR ON-SITE ANALYSIS OF MDMA
After weighing the pros and cons of the alternative methods, the mid- IR device had all over the best results and could be far more attractive for on-site use in its already existing portable format. The ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
have always been analyzed and characterized after isolation. Since the advent of second generation sequencing, it has been possible to characterize the complete genome of these isolates to the SNP level. ...
CHROMATOGRAPHIC FINGERPRINT DEVELOPMENT FOR THE DETECTION OF TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS IN PLANT FOOD SUPPLEMENTS
spectrometry Results and conclusion: It was found and confirmed that 7 unknown samples showed the pres-ence of TT and more than half of it were confirmed for adulteration, i.e. adding TT without indication on ...
The interplay between market concentration and diversity, food environment related commitments and associated practices of major food companies across European, Belgian and French markets
a public health perspective was conducted. Market concentration and diversity, food environment related commitments and associated practices were considered together with policy implications. It was found ...
Development of a data-intensive centralized system for surveillance and outbreak investigation of bacterial pathogens using whole-genome sequencing
sequencing (WGS), the sequencing of (nearly) complete genomes, has had an enormous impact on almost all fields of biology. However, its successful integration into routine public health practice has lagged ...
Flanders and Brussels join forces to tackle animal testing
animal experiments.” It does so by promoting the use of non-animal testing methods by putting the emphasis on sharing knowledge, and by bringing together experts from institutions and research fields with each other. ...
Brussels region finances VUB research into alternatives to animal experiments
“So it is fundamental that these kinds of method can be developed. And even if in certain cases animal experiments remain a necessary evil, we must keep in mind the objective of drastically reducing ...
Social integration of people with severe mental illness: A challenge for health care systems and policies
2000s, many countries have developed interventions that specifically targeted it. Despite major reforms in mental health care and the implementation of such interventions, their social integration has, ...
Development of vibrational spectroscopic methods combined with chemometrics for the detection and quantification of nicotine in e-liquids.
spectroscopy Nicotine RAMAN Abstract: E-cigarette have become a popular alternative to smoking tobacco cigarettes. They are sold in vapeshops and online. However, in Belgium, it is prohibited to import or to buy ...
Chemical and toxciological characterization of e-liquid cigarettes
methods were developed for the quantitative determination of nicotine and its related impurities (HPLC- DAD) and for the flavours diacetyl and acetylpropionyl (HS / GC- MS). Also, screening methods were ...
