Hazard characterization of the mycotoxins enniatins and beauvericin to identify...
Behr, AC; Fæste, CK; Azqueta, A; Tavares, AM; Spyropoulou, A; Solhaug, A; Olsen, AK; Vettorazzi, A; Mertens, B; Zegura, B; Streel, C; Ndiaye, DEnniatins (ENNs) and beauvericin (BEA) are cyclic hexadepsipeptide fungal metabolites which have demonstrated antibiotic, antimycotic, and insecticidal activities. The substantial toxic potentials of these mycotoxins are associated with their ionophoric molecular properties and relatively high lipophilicities. ENNs occur extensively in grain and grain-derived products and are considered a food safety issue by t...
Minimum Information for Reporting on the Comet Assay (MIRCA): recommendations f...
Møller, P; Azqueta, A; Boutet-Robinet, E; Koppen, G; Bonassi, S; Milić, M; Gajski, G; Costa, S; Teixeira, JP; Costa Pereira, C; Dusinska, MThe comet assay is a widely used test for the detection of DNA damage and repair activity. However, there are interlaboratory differences in reported levels of baseline and induced damage in the same experimental systems. These differences may be attributed to protocol differences, although it is difficult to identify the relevant conditions because detailed comet assay procedures are not always published. Here...
