  1. 11. Organophosphates and phthalates in air and dust from indoor environments : Method development and applied measurements

    Författare :Caroline Bergh; Conny Östman; Peter Haglund; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organophosphate esters; phthalate esters; air; dust; sampling; method development; GC MS; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Organophosphate and phthalate esters are polymer additives that are frequently found in air and dust in indoor environments. This thesis describes the development and application of air sampling and selective mass spectrometric (MS) determination of these two compound groups. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Molecular epidemiology of Staphylococcus epidermidis in prosthetic joint infections

    Författare :Emeli Månsson; Bo Söderquist; Martin Sundqvist; Åsa Nilsdotter-Augustinsson; Eva Särndahl; Kåre Bergh; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Staphylococcus epidermidis; molecular epidemiology; prosthetic joint infections; whole genome sequencing; Staphylococcus pettenkoferi;

    Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus epidermidis is ubiquitous in the human microbiota, but also an important pathogen in healthcare-associated infections, such as prosthetic joint infections (PJIs). In this thesis, aspects of the molecular epidemiology of S. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Integrating Biosensors for Air Monitoring and Breath-Based Diagnostics

    Författare :Niklas Sandström; Wouter van der Wijngaart; Fredrik Nikolajeff; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The air we breathe is the concern of all of us but nevertheless we only know very little about airborne particles, and especially which biological microorganisms they contain. Today, we live in densely populated societies with a growing number of people, making us particularly vulnerable to air transmission of pathogens. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Isocyanates - assessment of human exposure

    Författare :Håkan Tinnerberg; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pollution control; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; exposure; biomonitoring; occupational; isophorone diisocyanate; hexamethylene diisocyanate; methylenediphenyl diisocyanate; toluene diisocyanate; amines; aminoisocyanates; polyurethane; isocyanates; Liquid chromatography; Environmental technology; mass spectrometry;

    Sammanfattning : Isocyanates are used mainly for manufacturing of polyurethane (PUR) foams, lacquers, elastomers and glues. The production of PUR exceeds 2 million tonnes per year and is increasing. Occupational exposure to isocyanates are associated with respiratory disorders. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Sources, transport and fate of perfluoroalkyl acids in the atmosphere

    Författare :Jana Johansson; Ian Cousins; Tom Harner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Perfluorinated alkyl acids; PFOS; PFOA; Isomers; Sources; Atmospheric transport; Sea spray; Gas-particle partitioning; Volatilisation; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) are man-made chemicals which have been observed in the global environment, even in locations far away from where they are emitted. These persistent substances are taken up in humans and biota and may have toxic effects. LÄS MER
