Mental Distress and Its Contributing Factors Among Young People During the First Wave of COVID-19: A Belgian Survey Study
of COVID-19 in March, and 16–25-year-olds were selected as a subsample. Mental distress was assessed using the 12-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12), and a threshold of ≥4 was used to ...
Targeted Chromosomal Barcoding Establishes Direct Genotype-Phenotype Associations for Antibiotic Resistance in Mycobacterium abscessus.
isolate. The allelic exchange substrates used in recombineering carried either the sole D29A mutation or a genetic barcode of silent mutations in codons flanking the D29A mutation. After selection of ...
Pulmonary Aspergillosis in Humboldt Penguins—Susceptibility Patterns andMolecular Epidemiology of Clinical and Environmental Aspergillus fumigatus Isolates from a Belgian Zoo
2021–2022. From these samples, potential azole-resistant A. fumigatus (ARAF) isolates were detected using a selective culture medium. A total of 28 veterinary isolates obtained after necropsy of Humboldt ...
Hemorrhagic bowel syndrome in dairy cattle: Gross, histological, and microbiological characterization.
sequencing showed a polymicrobial population at the hematoma and unaffected intestine, with mostly mild presence of at selective culture. Gross and microscopic lesions, as well as the culture and sequencing ...
Effects of long-term exposure to 50 Hz magnetic fields on cell viability, genetic damage, and sensitivity to mutagen-induced damage.
damage induced by known mutagens) were investigated in the human B lymphoblastoid (TK6) cell line. Cells were exposed to 50 Hz MF at three selected magnetic flux densities (i.e., 10, 100, and 500 μT) for ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
therefore a selection marker is often used to detect the bacteria who have included the modification in their genome. Antimicrobial resistance genes are often used as one of these markers. The construct may ...
The global burden of neglected zoonotic diseases: Current state of evidence
international repositories for national prioritization exercises. A systematic review of global and national burden of disease (BoD) studies was conducted using pre-selected databases. Data on diseases, location ...
COVID-19 pandemic response in the Meuse-Rhine Euroregion: methods, participation and recommendations of a longitudinal cross-border study
the Netherlands. In the spring of 2021, a random sample of 26,925 adult citizens selected from governmental registries was invited to collect a blood sample at home for SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing and ...
Comparison of 6 DNA extraction methods for isolation of high yield of high molecular weight DNA suitable for shotgun metagenomics Nanopore sequencing to detect bacteriaAbstractBackgroundResultsConclusion
From the obtained results, the Quick- DNA HMW MagBead Kit (Zymo Research) was selected as producing the best yield of pure HMW DNA. Furthermore, this kit allowed an accurate detection, by Nanopore ...
Application of silver-based biocides in face masks intended for general use requires regulatory control
type(s) and localization of silver-based biocides using electron microscopy based methods. Thirteen of 20 selected masks intended for general use contained detectable amounts of silver ranging from 3 μg to ...
