  1. 1. Dissolved organic matter in lakes : Chemical diversity and continuum of reactivity

    Author : Alina Mostovaya; Lars Tranvik; Colin Stedmon; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : dissolved organic matter; DOM; dissolved organic carbon; DOC; PARAFAC; reactivity continuum model; ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry; FT-ICR-MS; organic matter characterization; decomposition kinetics; baseline metabolism; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi; Biology with specialization in Limnology;

    Abstract : Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is the largest pool of organic carbon in aquatic systems and an important component of the global carbon cycle. Large amounts of DOM are decomposed within lakes, resulting in fluxes of CO2 and CH4 to the atmosphere. READ MORE

  2. 2. Reactive dissolved organic carbon dynamics in a changing environment : Experimental evidence from soil and water

    Author : Balathandayuthabani Panneer Selvam; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dissolved organic carbon; DOC; Photodegradation; Biodegradation; DOC reactivity;

    Abstract : Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is the major form of organic carbon in aquatic ecosystems. Biological and photochemical degradation of DOC are major causes of greenhouse gas emissions from aquatic ecosystems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Adsorption of dissolved organic matter in aquatic ecosystems : Effects on composition and reactivity

    Author : Marloes M. Groeneveld; Lars Tranvik; Dolly Kothawala; Suzanne Tank; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : dissolved organic matter; DOM; carbon; aquatic; adsorption; mineral particles; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Abstract : Inland waters receive organic matter from terrestrial ecosystems and in situ production. In transit from land to the ocean, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) may be mineralised to inorganic forms (CO2 and CH4) by microbial degradation and photodegradation. READ MORE

  4. 4. Novel Cutaneous Human Papillomaviruses and Biomarkers in the Skin Lesions

    Author : Natasa Vasiljevic; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; prevalence; E7 protein; Non-melanoma skin cancer; biomarkers; keratoachantoma; Human papillomavirus;

    Abstract : Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC), comprising of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC), is the most prevalent cancer amongst Caucasians. The main risk factor for the development of NMSC is UV-irradiation but human papillo-mavirus (HPV) might be a co-factor. READ MORE

  5. 5. Application of chemical oxidation processes for the removal of pharmaceuticals in biologically treated wastewater

    Author : Gerly Hey; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The discharge of effluents from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is considered to be the major source of residual pharmaceuticals frequently found in aquatic environments. The complex nature of such compounds tends to make conventional biological treatments aimed at their removal ineffective. READ MORE
