Migration of mineral oil from cardboard packaging for food: Identification of the hazards and assessment of the exposure of the Belgian population
insights in the possible health risks associated with MOAH exposure. Based on these scenarios, adverse human health effects could not be excluded highlighting the need for more data to perform a more ...
Prioritizing substances of genotoxic concern for in-depth safety evaluation using non-animal approaches: The example of food contact materials.
safety. By combining in silico predictions with existing in vitro and in vivo genotoxicity data from publicly available literature sources and results from in vitro gene mutation experiments, the 106 study ...
Assessment of estrogenic compounds in paperboard for dry food packaging with the ERE-CALUX bioassay
exposure and mixture effects of these EDC s, they could cause health effects even at very low doses. Many EDC s are still unknown and many more are still unregulated. The ERE- CALUX bioassay was used as ...
A novel genotoxin-specific qPCR array based on the metabolically competent human HepaRG™ cell line as a rapid and reliable tool for improved in vitro hazard assessment
5 known positive and 5 known negative test compounds for genotoxicity was evaluated. In addition, 2 compounds with debatable genotoxicity data were tested to explore how the qPCR array would classify these. ...
Coatings in food contact materials: Potential source of genotoxic contaminants?
national legislation. Different ‘inventory lists’ of compounds that might be present in coatings are available, but for hundreds of these substances, the potential human health impact of their use in FCM ...
Study of the possible migration risks of food contact materials for children under 3 years
polymers for food contact materials for children younger than 3 years old (European Commission, regulation No. 10/2011). Furthermore, in a recent opinion, the Superior Health Council of Belgium expressed its ...
