Development of a shotgun metagenomics workflow for the comprehensive surveillance of biological impurities in vitamin-containing food products
products artificially spiked with different biological impurities, including DNA from fungal, bacterial, plant and GMM sources. Results showed that high-level impurities were reliably detected, whereas ...
Particle size analysis of iron hydroxide adipate tartrate (IHAT) in a food supplement: Interlaboratory testing of a dynamic light scattering method
results demonstrate that dynamic light scattering can reliably measure the particle size of particles in the low nanometre range if samples are prepared and measured following a robust, easy-to-reproduce, ...
