1. Temporal trends of 4-Hydroxychlorothalonil in maternal serum samples, 1997-2015
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning; Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)Sammanfattning : Agricultural fungicides are extensively used for infestation control, resulting in residues of these compounds in food. Human exposure to environmental contaminants might occur via different routes, such as inhalation, skin contact, or ingestion. Exposure to several pesticides has been associated with adverse human health outcomes. LÄS MER
2. A Comparative Analysis of Per- andPolyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) and ExtractableOrganofluorine (EOF) Using Solid PhaseExtraction-Weak Anion Exchange and Ion PairExtraction in SerumMarichal SalamehSpring 2021Independent project
Kandidat-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS) are compounds that consist of a carbon chainbackbone that is partially or entirely fluorinated, with an addition of a functional group. SomePFAS are known as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and have therefore been drawing a lot ofattention as well as increased concerns. LÄS MER
3. Fjädermyggspopulationer i Skandinaviska sjöar : övervakningsmetoder längs en eutrofieringsgradient
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and AssessmentSammanfattning : Fjädermyggs akvatiska larver har sedan hundra år tillbaka använts i övervakning av miljön tack vare sin stora artvariation och känslighet för omgivningen. Ett av världens mest använda index för att bedöma en sjös ekologiska status är Benthic Quality Index (BQI) som ämnar kategorisera sjöar till en av fem nivåer (dålig till hög), vilket ska spegla hur miljön mår i sjöns tillrinningsområde.

4. Method Development for Sample Preparation of Fish for Non-target Analysis of Hydrophobic Organic Pollutants
Master-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Monitoring methods for environmental pollutants are mostly performed with targeted analysis which relies on predetermined compounds. This can cause an underestimation of possible toxicants as it might not detect undiscovered compounds such as breakdown products of other chemicals. LÄS MER
5. Copper bioaccumulation in blue mussels and periwinkles from marinas
Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskapSammanfattning : Copper (Cu) is a heavy metal that is essential for life but toxic at high concentrations. This toxic effect is used on boats to prevent biofouling on boat hulls by painting the hulls with antifouling paint that contain high levels of Cu. The Cu is slowly diffused out in the water and accumulated by animals higher up in the food chain. LÄS MER
