Development of novel analytical methods to trace small micro- and nanoplastics in food matrices
a diameter smaller 1 µm, called nanoplastics (NP s) that could be found in food matrices and environmental samples, by means of specific measurement techniques. Therefore, the aim of this work is to develop ...
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
must be able to isolate pure high molecular weight (HMW) DNA from complex metagenomics samples, without introducing any bias. New methods released on the market, and protocols developed at the research ...
Daily heart rate characteristics, allergy symptom severity and mood in adults with allergic rhinitis
acute, daily changing factors that could underlie these cardiac alterations. Aim: To estimate associations between daily heart rate characteristics (i.e. resting heart rate, autocorrelation and sample ...
Validity of self-reported data to assess the prevalence of overweight, hypertension and cholesterol
evidence-based prevention programs. In Belgium, this is assessed through self-reported (SR) data from the Belgian health interview surveys (BHIS) in a wide population sample or through objective measures from ...
