Acrylamide in other foods_Determination of acrylamide levels in some food categories and estimation of the exposure for the Belgian population
also issued a call on the 25th of October 2019 to collect data on a European scale on the levels of acrylamide in foodstuffs based on chia seeds or chia flour and which have undergone a cooking process. ...
Risk assessment of glycoalkaloids in feed and food, in particular in potatoes and potato‐derived products
processing factors for food. Due to the limited data available, a margin of exposure (MOE) approach was applied. The MOE s for the younger age groups indicate a health concern for the food consumption surveys ...

Antibiotics (Basel), Volume 9, Issue 8 (2020) Keywords: Antimicrobial resistance MinION Plasmid sequencing Abstract: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most prominent public health threats. AMR genes ...
Strain-Level Metagenomic Data Analysis of Enriched In Vitro and In Silico Spiked Food Samples: Paving the Way towards a Culture-Free Foodborne Outbreak Investigation Using STEC as a Case Study.
demonstrating a data analysis approach for detailed characterization and phylogenetic placement of multiple bacterial strains of one species from shotgun metagenomic WGS data of an enriched food sample. Health ...
An expert opinion assessment of blood-feeding arthropods based on their capacity to transmit African swine fever virus in Metropolitan France.
Laetitia Lempereur; Le Potier, Marie-Frédérique; Elsa Quillery; Timothée Vergne; Laurence Vial Source: Transbound Emerg Dis (2020) Abstract: To deal with the limited literature data on the vectorial capacity ...
Use of Whole Genome Sequencing Data for a First in Silico Specificity Evaluation of the RT-qPCR Assays Used for SARS-CoV-2 Detection.
RT-qPCR methods were developed in January 2020 for initial in silico specificity evaluation and to verify whether the targeted loci are highly conserved. Now that more whole genome data have become ...
The Benefits of Whole Genome Sequencing for Foodborne Outbreak Investigation from the Perspective of a National Reference Laboratory in a Smaller Country.
Reference Laboratories of smaller countries often show slower uptake of WGS, mainly because of significant investments required to generate and analyze data of a limited amount of samples. To facilitate this ...
Use of a Whole Genome Sequencing-based approach for Mycobacterium tuberculosis surveillance in Europe in 2017-2019: an ECDC pilot study.
countries and highlight the challenges and lessons learned to be considered for the future development of a WGS-based surveillance system. WGS and epidemiological data of patients with rifampicin (RR) and ...
Identification of risk areas and practices for Taenia saginata taeniosis/cysticercosis in Ethiopia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
more sensitive tests, detailed risk factor analysis, as well as data on financial losses are needed to develop effective control strategies for the Ethiopian epidemiologic condition. Health Topics: One ...
