• CompareMS2 2.0: An Improved Software for Comparing Tandem Mass Spectrometry Datasets 

      Marissen, Rob; Varunjikar, Madhushri Shrikant; Laros, Jeroen F. J.; Rasinger, Josef; Neely, Benjamin A.; Palmblad, Magnus (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      It has long been known that biological species can be identified from mass spectrometry data alone. Ten years ago, we described a method and software tool, compareMS2, for calculating a distance between sets of tandem mass ...

      Belghit, Ikram; Varunjikar, Madhushri Shrikant; Lecrenier, Marie-Caroline; Steinhilber, A.; Niedzwiecka, A.; Wang, Y.V.; Dieu, Marc; Azzollini, D.; Lie, Kai Kristoffer; Lock, Erik Jan Robert; Berntssen, Marc HG; Renard, Patricia; Zagon, Jutta; Fumière, Olivier; van Loon, Loon; Larsen, Thomas; Poetz, O.; Braeuning, Albert; Palmblad, Magnus; Rasinger, Josef (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      In the present study, we assessed if different legacy and novel molecular analyses approaches can detect and trace prohibited bovine material in insects reared to produce processed animal protein (PAP). Newly hatched black ...
    • Multi-tissue proteogenomic analysis for mechanistic toxicology studies in non-model species 

      Lin, M.S.; Varunjikar, Madhushri Shrikant; Lie, Kai Kristoffer; Søfteland, Liv Ingeborg Rosvoll; Dellafiora, L.; Ørnsrud, Robin; Sanden, Monica; Berntssen, Marc HG; Dorne, J.L.C.M.; Bafna, V.; Rasinger, Josef (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      New approach methodologies (NAM), including omics and in vitro approaches, are contributing to the implementation of 3R (reduction, refinement and replacement) strategies in regulatory science and risk assessment. In this ...
    • Shotgun proteomics approaches for authentication, biological analyses, and allergen detection in feed and food-grade insect species 

      Varunjikar, Madhushri Shrikant; Belghit, Ikram; Gjerde, Jennifer; Palmblad, Magnus; Oveland, Eystein; Rasinger, Josef (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Untargeted proteomics can contribute to composition and authenticity analyses of highly processed mixed food and feed products. Here, we present the setup of an analytical flow tandem mass spectrometry method (AF-HPLC ...
    • Unveiling the potential of proteomics in addressing food and feed safety challenges 

      Perkons, Ingus; Varunjikar, Madhushri Shrikant; Rasinger, Josef (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The food and feed sector in Europe is rapidly evolving to address contemporary challenges, striving for fairer, safer, greener and more sustainable food systems. This includes the exploration of new protein sources for ...
