The GEN-ERA toolbox: unified and reproducible workflows for research in microbial genomics
were studied, resulting in the GEN- ERA toolbox. The latter is a unified cluster of bioinformatic workflows dedicated to both bacteria and small eukaryotes (e.g., yeasts). Findings: This public toolbox ...
EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2023
health outcomes. The risk factors that were prioritised are those related to air quality, environmental noise and extreme temperature. In terms of outcomes, priority was given to all-cause mortality, ...
Nationwide quality assurance of high-throughput diagnostic molecular testing during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic: role of the Belgian National Reference Centre.
diagnostic assays for SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) and later to assess the quality of commercial kits. To meet the growing demand for decentralised testing, both clinical ...
Clinical performance of the novel full-genotyping OncoPredict HPV Quantitative Typing assay using the VALGENT framework.
multiplex real-time PCR quantitative assay targeting E6 / E7 genes, allowing individual viral load determination of 12 high-risk (HR) HPV types. Quality controls for sample adequacy, efficiency of nucleic ...
The use of nitrous oxide whippets as a recreational drug: Hidden health risks.
lead were found. STEM- EDX analysis confirmed the presence of nano-sized particles containing iron and zinc. When simulating inhalation, using the multiple path particle dosimetry model, it was confirmed ...
Development of a monoclonal antibody sandwich ELISA for the determination of antigen content and quality in diphtheria vaccines.
different human vaccine products. We demonstrate the ability of the assay to discriminate between batches of different content and quality using vaccine batches that were prepared to contain differing amounts ...
Full Characterisation of Heroin Samples Using Infrared Spectroscopy and Multivariate Calibration
the collected spectral data and PLS modelling. These models were able to identify heroin correctly for 96% of the samples of the external test set with precision, specificity and sensitivity values of ...
Evaluation of an electrochemical sensor and comparison with spectroscopic approaches as used today in practice for harm reduction in a festival setting-A case study: Analysis of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine samples
requires portable, easy to use analytical approaches, operated by personnel with limited knowledge of analytical chemistry. In this case study, four different approaches were compared for the ...
Substandard and falsified ivermectin tablets obtained for self-medication during the COVID-19 pandemic as a source of potential harm.
(n = 19) were compliant to the quality criteria applicable to medicinal products. These SF products either suffered from a systematic underdosing of the active pharmaceutical ingredient or were ...
Multicenter interlaboratory study of routine systems for the susceptibility testing of temocillin using a challenge panel of multidrug-resistant strains.
method used as gold standard. Methods’ reproducibility was assessed by testing 3 reference strains in triplicate. A total of 702 organism-drug results were obtained against 33 TMO-susceptible and 14 ...
