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 ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
by EFSA in a recent scientific opinion. This work also gave a precedent in outbreak resolution to the food source using metagenomics to the strain level, and detecting GMM s in microbial fermentation ...
Development, validation and application of multi-class methods for the analysis of food additives by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry
Food additives are used in numerous food products and are characterised by various physicochemical properties. In European member states, their use in food is regulated by the European Union. This work ...
Optimization and validation of an analytical method for the quantification of short- and medium-chained chlorinated paraffins in food by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
119 (2021) Keywords: Chlorinated alkanes chlorinated paraffins food gas chromatography Mass Spectrometry Abstract: This work describes the optimization and validation of an analytical method for the ...
Development of a genoserotyping system for the identification of Salmonella serotypes
slide-agglutination technique. This PhD work showed that a targeted molecular method such as the MOL- PCR & Luminex technology, even though not the most complete technique as compared to WGS, has the potential to improve the ...
Development and Validation of a UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS Method for Quantification of Oleandrin and Other Cardiac Glycosides and Evaluation of Their Levels in Herbs and Spices from the Belgian Market
LC-MS/MS oleandrin plant toxins urine VALIDATION Abstract: Cardiac glycosides (CG s) are naturally occurring plant secondary metabolites that can be toxic to humans and animals. The aim of this work was to ...
Physicochemical Characterization of the Pristine E171 Food Additive by Standardized and Validated Methods.
for use as a food colorant in the European Union. The application of E171 in food has become an issue of debate, since there are indications that it may alter the intestinal barrier. This work applied ...
Improving Burden of Disease and Source Attribution Estimates
quantify the burden of foodborne disease, but there is still much work to be done. While burden estimates are crucial to raising awareness of foodborne diseases, estimating their public health impact, and ...
Comparison of SNP-based subtyping workflows for bacterial isolates using WGS data, applied to Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium and serotype 1,4,[5],12:i:.
this work, we have compared three existing SNP-based subtyping workflows using a benchmark dataset of 32 Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium and serovar 1,4,[5],12:i:- isolates ...
zDALY: An adjusted indicator to estimate the burden of zoonotic diseases.
a zoonotic disease to animal and human health. The losses due to the animal disease component of the modified DALY are straightforward to calculate. A number of worked examples such as echinococcosis, ...
