Microbial quality analysis of falsified medicines seized by controling agencies

chemical risks (e.g. lack of dosage accuracy, etc.) are highlighted in this study. Taken together, the obtained results indicate that at least 68% of the analyzed products harbored an unneglectable chemical ...

THE ANALYSIS OF ILLICIT DRUGS COLLECTED DURING A SUMMER FESTIVAL AND EVALUATION OF THE NARCOREADER FOR ON-SITE ANALYSIS OF MDMA

time-consuming and of high cost. There is a need for more rapid and still accurate analysis, with cost-effective and portable methods. Aim: As the first goal of this study, a selection of drug samples is analysed ...

Occurrence of microcystin congeners in surface waters and food in Belgium as a source of exposure to humans

environmental samples. This has a negative downstream effect on possible risk assessment studies that would establish the exposure and influence of the different cyanotoxins on public health, and on the final ...

Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety

contaminant present in the sample at once, possibly also at the SNP level. At the time this study started, shotgun metagenomics for the study of food contaminants was in its infancy. Moreover, strain-level ...
