  1. 1. TOXICITY DRIVERS IN CHEMICAL MIXTURES FROM THE SWEDISH WEST COAST – EFFECTS ON PELAGIC COMMUNITIES

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Helena Hartmann; [2023-06-26]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Human society benefits from a range of ecosystem services provided by the oceans, such as oxygen production, carbon storage, and fishing. However, these services are relying on the ecosystem’s functional and structural integrity, which are correlated to its biodiversity. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The impact of human relevant mixture of contaminants on the development of human adipocytes

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :Annika Jansson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of this project was to investigate how organic anthropogenic chemicals (OCs) effect the differentiation of adipocytes in the human body. The objective is also to contribute to novel research in how groups of chemicals in our surrounding affect us. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of marine contaminant mixtures on the copepod genus Pseudocalanus. How ambient contaminant mixtures affect mortality, food intake and fecal pellet production.

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Elisabeth Fenske; [2022-10-27]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Chemicals are present in almost every part of human society and their benefits to our everyday life are undeniable. Besides those benefits, chemicals are known to cause harm to both human health and the environment. LÄS MER

  5. 4. SINGLE AND COMBINED EXPOSURE OF POLYSTYRENE NANOPARTICLES AND NORTH SEA MARINE OIL IN TWO IN VITRO FISH MODELS

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Monica Olsson; [2022-10-05]
    Nyckelord :Polystyrene nanoparticles; crude oil; combined toxicity; cytotoxicity; oxidative stress;

    Sammanfattning : The awareness of micro-and nanoplastic pollution and its impact on the marine ecosystem has increased over the last decade. Nanoplastics may affect aquatic organisms since their small size and high surface-to-volume ratio increases their bioavailability and ability to cross biological membranes. LÄS MER

  7. 5. INVESTIGATING THE TOXIC AND ACIDIFYING EFFECT OF SCRUBBER EFFLUENT ON STRONGYLOCENTROTUS DROEBACHIENSIS LARVAE

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Ida Vartia; [2022-09-28]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : To meet the new environmental requirements of reduced sulfur emissions from ships, many shipowners have installed an open-loop scrubber to clean the exhaust. In this scrubbing process, seawater is pumped from the ocean and combined with the emission gas, creating an acidic and toxic effluent that is directly discharged into the ocean, potentially damaging the marine environment.
