  1. 11. Dispersion and risk assessment of airborne contaminants in pharmaceutical clean rooms

    Författare :Berit Reinmüller; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :airborne contamination; clean rooms; clean zones; clothing systems; dispersion of contaminants; LR-Method; microbiological risk assessment; risk assessment; source strenth;

    Sammanfattning : In many of today's industries, particularly in the healthcare field, special protection is required against airbornemicrobiological contamination. Clean rooms and clean zones areused to separate the ambient environment from contaminationcontrolled areas. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Monitoring of occupational exposure to antineoplastic drugs

    Författare :Maria Hedmer; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; industrial medicine; Occupational health; plasma; urine; renal clearance; risk evaluation; biological monitoring; air monitoring; wipe sampling; occupational exposure; ifosfamide; antineoplastic drugs; cyclophosphamide; Yrkesmedicin; arbetsmiljömedicin;

    Sammanfattning : Antineoplastic drugs are commonly used in the medical treatment of cancer and some other diseases. Workplaces e.g. hospital pharmacies and wards where antineoplastic drugs are used are contaminated with these drugs and health care workers are therefore at risk of getting occupationally exposed.

  4. 13. Mycotoxins in indoor environments. Determination using mass spectrometry

    Författare :Erica Bloom; Avdelningen för medicinsk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gas chromatography; Mass spectrometry; Mycotoxin; Indoor Air; Ergosterol.; Mold; High pressure liquid chromatography; Dust; Building materials;

    Sammanfattning : Dampness in indoor environments may cause various health problems. The specific causative agent(s) are unknown but may originate from degradation processes in damp materials, microbial growth, or a combination of these phenomena. The health impact of dampness in buildings is a politically, legally, and economically important question. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Carbon monoxide in biological systems : An experimental and clinical study

    Författare :Anna-Maja Åberg; Jan-Erik Larsson; Dick Delbro; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Carbon monoxide; physiological effects; systemic inflammation; analytical method; blood; exhaled air; pharmacokinetics; cigarette smoking; blood donation; cytokines; Anaesthetics; Anestesiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Carbon monoxide (CO) is a toxic gas, but it is also produced endogenously when haem is degraded. When produced in vivo, CO is believed to have positive biological effects. For example it activates the production of cyclic guanosine mono-phosphate and causes vasodilatation. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Occupational exposure to brominated flame retardants : With emphasis on polybrominated diphenyl ethers

    Författare :Kaj Thuresson; Åke Bergman; Peter Fürst; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; occupational exposure; Brominated flame retardants; polybrominated diphenyl ethers; air and serum concentrations; decabromodiphenyl ether; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Sammanfattning : Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are a diverse group of chemicals, which are used to slow down or inhibit the development of fires. BFRs are incorporated into a wide range of consumer products that are considered as potential fire hazards, such as TV-sets, household appliances, computers, and textiles. LÄS MER
