Hazard characterization of Alternaria toxins to identify data gaps and improve risk assessment for human health.
of structurally diverse secondary metabolites with toxic potential has been identified, but occurrence and relative proportion of the different metabolites in complex mixtures depend on strain, ...
Urine concentrations of Arsenic and its species in adolescents from Wallonia (Belgium).
determinants such as gender and determined exposure reference values. We analysed urine concentrations of total arsenic (AsT), arsenobetaine (AB) and toxic relevant arsenic (TRA, the sum of DMA, MMA and ...
Microbial quality analysis of falsified medicines seized by controling agencies
good manufacturing practices (GMP). The potential health risks associated with consuming such compromised medications range from toxic impurities to contamination with pathogenic microorganisms. In this ...
Linking nanomaterial-induced mitochondrial dysfunction to existing adverse outcome pathways for chemicals.
(AOP) framework plays a crucial role in the paradigm shift of toxicity testing towards the development and use of new approach methodologies. AOP s developed for chemicals are in theory applicable to ...
Persistence of the Staphylococcus aureus epidemic European fusidic acid-resistant impetigo clone (EEFIC) in Belgium.
encoding the Panton-Valentine leucocidin, the toxic shock syndrome toxin and the exfoliatins A and B. MLST clonal complexes were deduced from the spa types. RESULTS: Among the 518 S. aureus strains analysed, ...
Whole-Genome Sequencing-Based Screening of MRSA in Patients and Healthcare Workers in Public Hospitals in Benin.
virulence genes, including the genes encoding the Panton-Valentine leukocidin toxin (48.15%, n = 13/27), and the gene (29.63%, n = 8/27), associated with toxic shock syndrome. This study highlights the need ...
Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans
food Food Safety Health Risk Assessment microcystins WATER Abstract: Increased awareness in the media and strict control by competent authorities resulted in an overall risk perception of toxic ...
Simultaneous Detection and Quantification of Aflatoxin M1, Eight Microcystin Congeners and Nodularin in Dairy Milk by LC-MS/MS
among infants and children. However, it is crucial to address the presence of multiple natural toxic compounds that may co-occur in dairy milk to ensure its safety prior to consumption. Aflatoxin M1 ...
Application of silver-based biocides in face masks intended for general use requires regulatory control
control SARS-CoV-2 infection needs to be balanced against possible toxicity due to inhalation exposure. Direct measurement of silver (particle) release to estimate exposure is problematic. Therefore, this ...
Regulatory safety assessment of nanoparticles for the food chain in Europe
