  1. 36. Biomarkers aiming at cancer risk estimation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

    Författare :Hans Helleberg; Kimmo Peltonen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical Biology; fysikalisk biologi;

    Sammanfattning : Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), a family of compounds that are formed in incomplete combustion of organic matter, occur as general pollutants in air and food. Exposure to PAH is, according to preliminary estimates, associated with non-acceptable cancer risks showing the need for improved data to be used in risk estimation. LÄS MER

  7. 40. Gender differences in chemical carcinogenesis

    Författare :Sandeep Kadekar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Gender differences in cancer incidence and mortality is a regular finding in epidemiological studies. In addition to reproductive organs this pattern is also seen in non-reproductive organs, with men being the most affected gender for the majority of cancer-sites. LÄS MER
