Challenges in Determining Nitrosamines in the Environment

Radenkovic is a PhD candidate at KU Leuven and a member of FeMS. Her research focuses on inborn metabolic disorders (IMD), like congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG), omics techniques such as tracer metabolomics, and different disease models.

Researchers attempted to ascertain the relationship between vitamin D levels in athletes and the structural and functional values of their hearts assessed through electrocardiographic and echocardiographic parameters. Vitamin D levels were measured using high performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC–MS/MS).

Researchers from KU Leuven explored two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC)’s application to profile micropollutants in wastewater.

A study in Food Science & Nutrition evaluated the antioxidant and preservative effects of Epilobium angustifolium extract on beef burgers, finding that the extract influenced physicochemical properties, color stability, and lipid oxidation, with higher concentrations showing a prooxidant effect.
