THE ANALYSIS OF ILLICIT DRUGS COLLECTED DURING A SUMMER FESTIVAL AND EVALUATION OF THE NARCOREADER FOR ON-SITE ANALYSIS OF MDMA
identification ketamine MDMA mid-IR Narcoreader near-IR On-site Quantification RAMAN UV spectroscopy Abstract: Background: The most used on-site methods to identify illicit drugs consist of color tests or ...
Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans
also identified in the waterbody samples to better characterize the cyanobacteria blooms. Algal-based food supplements were also identified as a potential exposure source. The presence of toxin-producing ...
Chemical and toxciological characterization of e-liquid cigarettes
As such, 807 flavouring substances were identified in 129 e-liquids using complementary HS- GC MS methods. In a first step, all these substances were screened for genotoxicity using qualitative and ...
Development of a genoserotyping system for the identification of Salmonella serotypes
reaching an accuracy above 99%. Finally, the complete genoserotyping system was evaluated for its ability to completely identify auto-agglutinable isolates which cannot be typed by the ...
Genotoxic evaluation of the liquids present in electronic cigarettes
performed with flavouring substances that have previously been identified in e-liquids. First, the genotoxic potential of these compounds was assessed using in silico prediction software Derek and Sarah ...
DETERMINATION OF ALLERGENIC FRAGRANCE INGREDIENTS IN FEMININE ABSORBENT HYGIENE PRODUCTS AND LUBRICANTS
allergenic fragrance ingredients in AHP s and lubricants by evaluating the packaging and labels. Thereupon, the fragrances present in the purchased samples were identified and quantified using GC- MS. The ...
Vaccine preventable bacterial diseases in Belgium: monitoring of general population immunity and pregnancy vaccination strategies
against diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis. A pentaplex immunoassay was developed for simultaneous detection of IgG antibodies induced by five vaccine antigens i.e. DT, TT, PT, FHA and Prn. We identified an ...
Fusarium, clinical relevance and mass spectrometry methods for identification, using strains of the Belgian fungal culture collection BCCM/IHEM
isolated from patients, were re-identified by multilocus DNA marker sequencing and phylogeny. The remaining 289 validated strains, comprising 40 different species, were of great value: (i) Analysis of the ...
Innate signaling by mycolate esters of the cell wall of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and relevance for development of adjuvants for subunit vaccines
identifying the receptor involved in the recognition of several PAMP s. Furthermore, we showed that the activation of this receptor by these mycolate esters triggers the induction of protective Th1 and Th17 ...
Development of molecular tools for rapid detection and quantification of indoor airborne molds to assess their impact on public health
have some limitations. For example, uncultivable or dead fungi (“unknown” fraction) cannot be identified, although they could have an impact on human health. In this context, molecular tools seem to be ...
