Optimization of the sample pretreatment preceding the determination of isotope ratios via multi-collector ICP-mass spectrometry Ghent University
A microwave digestion system is indispensable for the acid digestion of materials to be analyzed with (multi-collector) ICP-mass spectrometry (geological materials, plant material, biological tissues, etc). For enabling full digestion of the samples and reducing the risk of contamination and analyte losses, sophisticated instrumentation is required, allowing rapid digestion in a closed vessel and offering the possibility of temperature and ...

A rigorous modelling cycle for reliable predictive microbiology: Application to the specific microbial growth rate KU Leuven
Predictive microbiology is the science of developing mathematical models that describe the behaviour of microorganisms in food products. This behaviour is described as a function of the food properties. However, there are several difficulties in describing the lag phase of microbial growth, i.e., the time it takes until microorganisms can start growing when placed in a new environment. Therefore, the current research will work on developing ...
