Identification and characterization of inorganic food additives and pearlescent pigments in sprays for food decoration by STEM-EDX
mixtures, characterisation of the fraction of small particles, including the particle size distribution, is needed for each single constituent or each component in the mixture2. This is challenging for ...
Urine concentrations of Arsenic and its species in adolescents from Wallonia (Belgium).
source, the most significant partitioning criteria for urine AsT is typically the recent consumption of fish/seafood. This was also the case for AB, the organic specie of As that is mostly present in fish ...
Development of novel analytical methods to trace small micro- and nanoplastics in food matrices
of convenient food or usage of single-use items. As a direct consequence, the production of plastics is globally increasing, as well as their release into the environment, threatening wildlife and ...
Strain-level characterization without culture enrichment? Easing and accelerating outbreak investigation using shotgun metagenomics facilitated with nanopore adaptive sampling
resolved. Shotgun metagenomics is a sequencing method involving the analysis of the genetic material directly extracted from a sample, without the need for an isolation of the bacteria. By sequencing and ...
EFSA Project on the use of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) for the hazard assessment of nanofibres. Lot 1, nanocellulose oral exposure: gastrointestinal digestion, nanofibres uptake and local effects
hazard identification IATAs NAMs nanocellulose nanospecific assessment Abstract: Nanocellulose (NC) is an emerging material in the food sector with several prospective application areas. Three main types ...
ESCAIDE 2022 Oral presentation: International outbreak of Salmonella Typhimurium linked to a chocolate factory in 2022: Belgian findings
were analysed for Salmonella spp. using real-time PCR. Whole genome sequence (WGS) analysis of isolates of probable cases and positive food samples is still ongoing. Results We identified 62 probable ...
Shotgun metagenomics as a ONE Health tool for better protecting human health
identify all biological material in a sample without a priori knowing what to look for, could transform the way specific key public health questions can be addressed, in a ONE Health context. Metagenomics is ...
