  4. 2. Polychlorinated biphenyls and their metabolites in human blood : Method development, identification and quantification

    Author : Lotta Hofvander; Åke Bergman; Bo Jönsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PCB; polychlorinated biphenyls; metabolites; human blood; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Abstract : PCBs are well known environmental pollutants. They are also precursors to metabolites, as the hydroxy-PCBs and the methylsulfonyl-PCBs. This thesis presents a validated methodology for analysis of PCB metabolites and a structural identification of 38 hydroxy-PCBs in human blood. READ MORE

  7. 5. Liver tumour promoting effects by polychlorinated biphenyls

    Author : Marie Haag Grönlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : tumour promotion; altered hepatic foci; rat liver; PCB; potency; TEF; interactions; antagonism; biologically based cancer growth models; TCDD;

    Abstract : PCBs cause a number of toxic effects and are present in a variety of biological samples including fish, meat and diary products. Cancer is a serious toxic effect by PCBs that has been observed in animal experiments but the knowledge about PCB induced carcinogenicity is still scarce. READ MORE
