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 ...
Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans
environmental samples. This has a negative downstream effect on possible risk assessment studies that would establish the exposure and influence of the different cyanotoxins on public health, and on the final ...
Pulmonary Aspergillosis in Humboldt Penguins—Susceptibility Patterns andMolecular Epidemiology of Clinical and Environmental Aspergillus fumigatus Isolates from a Belgian Zoo
the environment of Humboldt penguins (Spheniscus humboldti), located in a Belgian zoo, was assessed through the analysis of air, water, sand and nest samples during four non-consecutive days in ...
Combined Phylogeographic Analyses and Epidemiologic Contact Tracing to Characterize Atypically Pathogenic Avian Influenza (H3N1) Epidemic, Belgium, 2019.
epidemic that occurred in Belgium during 2019. Virus genomes from 104 clinical samples originating from 85% of affected farms were sequenced. A spatially explicit phylogeographic analysis confirmed ...

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 ...
Assessment of the Feasibility of a Future Integrated Larger-Scale Epidemiological Study to Evaluate Health Risks of Air Pollution Episodes in Children.
air pollution Biomarkers Child environmental exposure Epidemiologic Studies Feasibility Studies Humans Particulate Matter Abstract: Air pollution exposure can lead to exacerbation of respiratory ...
Shotgun metagenomics as a ONE Health tool for better protecting human health
for long-read sequencing. The analysis of animal and environmental samples collected at a production farm, subsequently spiked with bacterial species present at various concentrations and carrying AMR ...
A Summer of Cyanobacterial Blooms in Belgian Waterbodies: Microcystin Quantification and Molecular Characterizations
In the context of increasing occurrences of toxic cyanobacterial blooms worldwide, their monitoring in Belgium is currently performed by regional environmental agencies (in two of three regions) using ...
Spatio-Temporal Modeling of Grass and Birch Pollen in Belgium
grasses in Belgium are monitored by the Belgian Scientific Institute for Public Health (Sciensano) at five stations on a daily basis. This sampling is rather general and cannot retrieve the spatial ...
