1. Genetic Aspects of Environmental Disturbances in Marine Ecosystems : Studies of the Blue Mussel in the Baltic Sea
Sammanfattning : Anthropogenic environmental changes can serve as drivers for evolutionary responses in wild populations. To predict the long-term impact of anthropogenic changes on populations, it is crucial to understand the genetic effects caused by these disturbances. LÄS MER
2. Effects of ozonated sewage effluents and pharmaceuticals in zebrafish (Danio rerio)
Sammanfattning : The aquatic environment is the main destination for many organic pollutants originating from human activity. Pharmaceuticals are significant contributors to this pollutant cocktail. LÄS MER
3. Determination of Antibiotics in the Swedish Environment with Emphasis on Sewage Treatment Plants
Sammanfattning : Metoder har utvecklats för att kunna bestämma tolv antibiotikasubstanser, vanliga inom human medicin, i miljöprover. Fokus lades på trimetoprim samt substanser från följande grupper: fluorokinoloner, sulfonamider, penicilliner, cefalosporiner, nitroimidazoler, tetracykliner samt makrolider. LÄS MER
4. Analytical method development for ultra-trace determination of human pharmaceuticals in aqueous samples. Assessing the performance of a sewage treatment plant
Sammanfattning : Research focus in environmental pollution has recently been extended from more classical environmental pollutants such as PCBs or pesticides to pharmaceuticals and steroid hormones, which are designed to be biologically active and enter the environment primarily through regular domestic use. Consequently, it is important to monitor these substances concentrations in the effluents of sewage treatment plants (STPs) and in the environment in order to evaluate their associated risks. LÄS MER
5. Ozonation as sewage effluent treatment : toxicological effects in adult and embryonic zebrafish, Danio rerio
Sammanfattning : Pharmaceutical residues are not efficiently removed by current sewage treatment plant (STP) technologies. This allows for the release of pharmaceutical residues into the aquatic environment. Pharmaceuticals and their metabolites are problematic because they are designed to affect biological processes in non-target aquatic species. LÄS MER
