Shifting national surveillance of Shigella infections toward geno-serotyping by the development of a tailored Luminex assay and NGS workflow.
misidentified E. coli samples at the National Reference Centre (NRC). In this paper, we describe two novel tools to enhance Shigella surveillance. First, we developed a low-cost Luminex-based multiplex assay ...
Strong increase of true and false positive mycobacterial cultures sent to the National Reference Centre in Belgium, 2007 to 2016.
of containing mycobacteria.AimTo present mycobacterial surveillance/diagnosis data from the Belgian National Reference Centre for mycobacteria (NRC) from 2007 to 2016.MethodsThis retrospective ...
Epidemiology and genotype 3 subtype dynamics of hepatitis E virus in Belgium, 2010 to 2017.
past decade in many European countries. Since 2010, the National Reference Centre (NRC) for Hepatitis Viruses has been testing samples of suspected hepatitis E cases in Belgium.AimIn this surveillance ...
Pesticide residues in Tunisian table grapes and associated risk for consumer’s health
estimated by the determination of predicted short term intake which is expressed as a percentage of Acute Reference Dose (AR fD), for non-compliances of pesticides. The exceedance of AR fD was associated with ...
Paediatric haemolytic uraemic syndrome related to Shiga toxin-producing, an overview of 10 years of surveillance in France, 2007 to 2016.
present the results of this surveillance between 2007 and 2016.MethodsA voluntary nationwide network of 32 paediatric departments notifies cases. Two national reference centres perform microbiological STEC ...
Towards the use of ion mobility mass spectrometry derived collision cross section as a screening approach for unambiguous identification of targeted pesticides in food
33, Issue S2 (2019) Abstract: Rationale Mass spectrometry (MS) is the reference method for the screening of ultra‐trace residues of pesticides in food because MS offers the required ...
High uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) during early roll-out in Belgium: results from surveillance reports
We also collected aggregated data from seven Aids Reference Centres (ARC s) currently providing most of the PrEP care in Belgium. Results: From 1 June 2017 to 28 February 2018, 1352 requests for ...
Cervical morbidity in Alsace, France: results from a regional organized cervical cancer screening program.
Cancer incidence rates were computed for the target population (truncated to 25-64 years) and were age standardized according to the world reference population. World standardized incidence rates for the ...
Black aspergilli: A remaining challenge in fungal taxonomy?
