  1. 1. Protein adducts of hexahydrophthalic anhydride- chemical structures and biomarkers

    Författare :Monica Kåredal; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; arbetsmiljömedicin; Yrkesmedicin; industrial medicine; Occupational health; nasal lavage; mass spectrometry; biomarker; human serum albumin; hemoglobin; Hexahydrophthalic anhydride; adducts;

    Sammanfattning : Organic acid anhydrides (OAAs) are low molecular weight chemicals used in the industry for manufacturing of plastics such as epoxy resins. Exposure to these chemicals may lead to symptoms from the eyes and the respiratory tract in form of conjunctivitis, rhinitis and asthma. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Metabolism and Biological Monitoring of Organic Acid Anhydrides

    Författare :Christian Lindh; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; rats; human; distribution; analysis; biological monitoring; autoradiography; adducts; hemoglobin; plasma; urine; Hexahydrophthalic anhydride; methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride; guinea pigs; Occupational health; industrial medicine; Yrkesmedicin; arbetsmiljömedicin;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to describe the metabolism and to develope methods for biological monitoring for two organic acid anhydrides (OAAs), namely hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HHPA) and methylhexa-hydrophthalic anhydride (MHHPA). The OAAs are reactive, low molecular weight chemicals used in vast quantities in the industry. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Biomarkers of aromatic isocyanates in exposed workers

    Författare :Pernilla Lind; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adducts; biomarkers; exposure; occupational; methylenediphenyl diisocyanate; toluene diisocyanate; amines; isocyanates; polyurethane; Gas chromatography; mass spectrometry; Occupational health; industrial medicine; Yrkesmedicin; arbetsmiljömedicin;

    Sammanfattning : The aromatic isocyanates, toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), are used in the production of polyurethane (PUR) foams, paints, elastomers and glues. The use of isocyanates is increasing, and exposure to isocyanates is the most common cause of occupational asthma. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Method for measurement of exposure to electrophiles : Strategy for identification and exposure estimation using N-terminal haemoglobin adducts

    Författare :Efstathios Vryonidis; Margareta Törnqvist; Hitesh Motwani; Isabella Karlsson; Marie Pedersen; Gabriele Sabbioni; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Haemoglobin adducts; Electrophilic exposure; LC-MS; Adductomics; Acrylamide; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : We are exposed to many chemicals in our everyday life. Some of these chemicals could pose risks for our health. To reduce such risks, it is important to know what we are exposed to, how much, and how toxic the chemicals are. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Development of an adductomic approach to identify electrophiles in vivo through their hemoglobin adducts

    Författare :Henrik Carlsson; Margareta Törnqvist; Gunnar Boysen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Adductomics; Hemoglobin adducts; LC MS MS; Ethyl vinyl ketone; Glyoxal; Methylglyoxal; Acrylic acid; 1-Octen-3-one; Environmental Chemistry; miljökemi;

    Sammanfattning : Humans are exposed to electrophilically reactive compounds, both formed endogenously and from exogenous exposure. Such compounds could react and form stable reaction products, adducts, at nucleophilic sites in proteins and DNA. LÄS MER
