(author), Krul, L. (author)A main challenge in food safety research is to demonstrate that processing of foodstuffs does not lead to the formation of substances for which the safety upon consumption might be questioned. This is especially so since food is a complex matrix in which the analytical detection of substances, and consequent risk assessment thereof, is difficult...article 2015

Koster, S. (author), Rennen, M. (author), Leeman, W. (author), Houben, G. (author), Muilwijk, B. (author), van Acker, F. (author), Krul, L. (author)One of the main challenges in food contact materials research is to prove that the presence of non-intentionally added substances (NIAS) is not a safety issue. Migration extracts may contain many unknown substances present at low concentrations. It is difficult and time-consuming to identify all these potential NIAS and concurrently to assess...article 2014

(author), Broer, D.J. (author), Technisch Physische Dienst TNO - TH (author)Novel phenyl benzoate-based and biphenyl-based liquid crystalline thiol-ene monomers were synthesized and their properties investigated. By varying the bridging unit and spacer length, the type of mesophase can be tuned from the low ordered nematic and smectic A phase in the case of the phenyl benzoate-based monomers, to the highly ordered...article 2003

(author), TNO Voeding Centraal Instituut voor Voedingsonderzoek TNO (author)The validity of in vitro and in vivo methods for the prediction of percutaneous penetration in humans was assessed using the fungicide ortho-phenylphenol (OPP) (log Po/w 3.28, MW 170.8, solubility in water 0.7 g/L). In vivo studies were performed in rats and human volunteers, applying the test compound to the dorsal skin and the volar aspect of...article 2002

(author)In a previous study (Vos & Koeman, Toxic. appl. Pharmac. 1970. In press) a significant difference in toxicity was found between three commercial polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) preparations, high mortality, liver necrosis and chick oedema-like lesions being associated with only two of the compounds tested. In the present study, column and gas...article 1970
