Fusarium, clinical relevance and mass spectrometry methods for identification, using strains of the Belgian fungal culture collection BCCM/IHEM
development of a new identification method for mold infections which is directly applicable on clinical samples and relies upon the detection of species- and genus-specific peptides using tandem mass ...
Development of molecular tools for rapid detection and quantification of indoor airborne molds to assess their impact on public health
monitoring methods have also been developed. Through the application of the developed tools to specific case studies, we aimed to improve the current knowledge on fungal contamination. At first, we developed ...
Study of the possible migration risks of food contact materials for children under 3 years
and DCM-n-hexane (1:1) were the most efficient extraction solvents. Consequently, there was opted for the nonchlorinated solvents and EtOAc-n-hexane (1:1) was selected for the application to real ...
