  1. 11. Population Exposure to Organic Contaminants and Human Biomonitoring

    Författare :Erika Norén; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : We are surrounded by various chemicals, both naturally occurring and synthetically produced. Some, but not all, chemicals can be hazardous for human health following exposure, especially for vulnerable population groups including children, adolescents, and pregnant women. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Cadmium induced kidney dysfunction in rodents and its relevance to biomonitoring : experimental and environmental findings

    Författare :Per Leffler; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Forestry; forest worker; chain saw; mechanization; rationalization; labour history; working life; technical change; cutting operation;

    Sammanfattning : This study deals with how workers actively introduced a new technique to their own labour process. More specifically, it is concerned with how Swedish forest workers during the 1950s gradually replaced the manual one-man crosscut saw with the motor-driven saw. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Analysis of DNA adducts of some low molecular weight aldehydes : methods development and application in human biomonitoring

    Författare :Jia-Long Fang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Malondialdehyde (MA), acetaldehyde (Aa) and methylglyoxal (MG) are ubiquitously present in the environment and endogenously formed in animals and humans. They have been shown to be genotoxic and to readily react with DNA to form DNA adducts under physiological conditions. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Assessing the longitudinal trend of POP concentrations in humans using high-throughput sample preparation methods developed for low-volume samples

    Författare :Jordan Stubleski; Anna Kärrman; Samira Salihovic; Petr Kukucka; Jean-Francois Focant; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Longitudinal trends; human biomonitoring; POPs; PFASs; high-throughput solid phase extraction; high-resolution mass spectrometry; tandem mass spectrometry;

    Sammanfattning : Human exposure to anthropogenic persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and their related effects on human health widely vary from person to person, making population-based risk assessment difficult.This thesis aimed to evaluate how individual changes and implemented re-strictions in POP production influenced human exposure.

  7. 15. Development and application of a proteomic approach to the assessment of pollution in the marine environment

    Författare :Itxaso Apraiz Larrucea; Susana Cristobal; Joe de Pierre; David Sheehan; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; proteomics; mussels; peroxisomes; two-dimensional electrophoresis 2-DE ; difference gel electrophoresis DIGE ; bisphenol A BPA ; diallyl phthalate DAP ; 2; 2′; 4; 4′-tetrabromodiphenyl ether PBDE-47 ; fuel oil; Prestige oil spill; Environmental toxicology; Miljötoxikologi; Toxicology; Toxikologi; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Today, assessment of the health of coastal waters is recognized as being important for both the conservation of nature and well-being of humans. Anthropogenic pollution has been the focus of extensive research for some time and a variety of programs for the monitoring and assessment of environmental pollution have been developed. LÄS MER
