A Benchmark Dose-based strategy for evaluating the combined effects of genotoxic compounds
Publication Type: Scientific poster, presentation or proceeding Authors: Julie Sanders; Roel Anthonissen; George Johnson; Tamara Vanhaecke; Birgit Mertens Source: BelTox Annual Meeting, Brussels, Belgium (2023) Keywords: benchmark dose modelling genotoxic ...
Identification and characterization of inorganic food additives and pearlescent pigments in sprays for food decoration by STEM-EDX
microscopy (STEM) combined with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) allowed identifying particles of separate components, including potassium aluminium silicate-based pearlescent pigments, vegetable ...
Strain-level characterization without culture enrichment? Easing and accelerating outbreak investigation using shotgun metagenomics facilitated with nanopore adaptive sampling
strands to be sequenced preferably. The combination of metagenomics and adaptive sampling could allow to circumvent the isolation but also the enrichment of the food sample. Materials and Methods As ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
It was proven that whole genome sequencing has a higher resolution than any combination of tests carried out so far. But the isolation is not always possible, and it is time-consuming. A new method ...
P20-10: Microcystin-LR and aflatoxin M1 contamination in dairy milk samples and their combined in vitro hepatotoxicity
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Mohamed F. Abdallah; Van Camp, C.; Recote, J. May; Wannes Van Hassel *; Julien Masquelier *; A. Rajkovic Source: Toxicology Letters, Volume 384 (2023) Health Topics: Food consumption and food sa ...
The contribution of cacao consumption to the bioaccessible dietary cadmium exposure in the Belgian population
the Belgian population, in combination with ICP- MS analysis of a large subset of cacao-containing products (N=349). Both the average chocolate consumption (28 g day-1) and the relative contribution of ...
Aluminium intake through the consumption of selected baby foods and risk characterization in a population of Brazilian infants aged 0 to 36 months
combining mean levels of Al in 171 samples of baby foods (infant formula, meat/vegetable purees, fruit purees, petit-suisse and cereals), analytically determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission ...
Modeling the migration of chemicals from food contact materials to food: The MERLIN-expo/VERMEER toolbox.
food is a key step in the safety assessment of such materials. In this paper, a simple mechanistic model describing the migration of chemicals from FCM to food was combined with quantitative ...
LC-MS/MS Validation and Quantification of Cyanotoxins in Algal Food Supplements from the Belgium Market and Their Molecular Origins
algal-based food supplements were both combined with our toxin prevalence data to establish different toxin exposure scenarios to assess health risks and propose new guideline values. Health Topics: Food ...
Listeria monocytogenes isolates from Cornu aspersum snails: Whole genome-based characterization and host-pathogen interactions in a snail infection model.
infection model showed that hypervirulent isolates triggered programmed host cell death pathway by increasing up to 30% the circulating apoptotic hemocytes in combination with induced nitrate production and ...
