11. Biomonitoring of epichlorohydrin and some related compounds
Sammanfattning : This thesis considers epichlorohydrin (ECH), an important industrial chemical, that has been shown to be a carcinogen in experimental animals. The aim of this work is to improve the scientific basis for risk estimation of ECH and to suggest a reliable biomonitoring method for exposure. LÄS MER
12. Protein adducts in plasma as biomarkers of exposure to and risk of organic acid anhydrides
Sammanfattning : Organic acid anhydrides (OAAs) are important industrial chemicals but also potent inducers of airways diseases. Many exposed workers develop specific IgE and IgG antibodies. Hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HHPA) and methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride (MHHPA) are two particularly sensitising OAAs. LÄS MER
13. In vivo dosimetry of some important industrial chemicals by measurement of their reaction products with hemoglobin
Sammanfattning : Hemoglobin adduct measurements provide a useful tool for the development of models for risk assessment of chemicals. The measurements can be used to identify reactive metabolites and to determine the in vivo doses of these metabolites. LÄS MER
14. In vivo dosimetry of some alkylating agents as a basis for risk estimation
Sammanfattning : The present study concerns in vivo dosimetry of ultimate electrophilic reagents as a step in risk estimation of mutagenic and carcinogenic chemicals. The level of reaction products with nucleophilic groups in macromolecules could be used for dose determination. LÄS MER
15. In vivo dosimetry of aldehydes and studies on the origin of malonaldehyde
Sammanfattning : Aldehydes are electrophilic reagents that bind to nucleophilic sites in macromolecules andmany of them have been shown to possess cytotoxic and genotoxic properties.The aim of this study was to develop an analytical method for the measurement of reactionproducts (adducts) of aldehydes with hemoglobin (Hb) and to apply this method for in vivodosimetry of endogenously formed aldehydes, particularly malonaldehyde (MA).
