Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans
the producers of these toxins by amplification and sequencing of the mcyE gene. Yet, data on the MC s prevalence is not sufficient to accurately assess human exposure and risk. Additional consumption ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
have always been analyzed and characterized after isolation. Since the advent of second generation sequencing, it has been possible to characterize the complete genome of these isolates to the SNP level. ...

Development of a genoserotyping system for the identification of Salmonella serotypes
detection of molecular markers or on the analysis of sequencing data, are described in the scientific literature. Based on a critical review of some of these techniques, the Multiplex Oligonucleotide ...
Fusarium, clinical relevance and mass spectrometry methods for identification, using strains of the Belgian fungal culture collection BCCM/IHEM
isolated from patients, were re-identified by multilocus DNA marker sequencing and phylogeny. The remaining 289 validated strains, comprising 40 different species, were of great value: (i) Analysis of the ...
Development of molecular tools for rapid detection and quantification of indoor airborne molds to assess their impact on public health
assay. Therefore, next generation sequencing (NGS) could offer a valuable alternative as an open approach multiplex monitoring method. An NGS-based metagenomics approach was used to investigate the ...
Strategies to detect unauthorized GMO in the food and feed chain (PhD thesis)

pCAMBIA), were selected to develop a strategy allowing to detect and characterize a broad range of GMO. This strategy, fully integrated in the GMO routine analysis, consists to characterize sequences ...
Strategies to detect unauthorized genetically modified organisms in food and feed chain
routine analysis, consists to characterize sequences surrounding detected key transgenic elements using a DNA walking approach. By this way, the acquisition of sequences from the junction between the ...
Role of wildlife and domestic pigs as reservoirs for hepatitis E virus (HEV): study of the infection in suids and cervids and of the susceptibility of pigs to HEV originating from wild boa
pig sera were detected positive for HEV RNA. All sequences from the 4 positive pig sera belonged to genotype 3, subtype f. Eight sequenced human HEV fragments belonged to genotype 3 (7 subtypes f and ...
