2. 1. Natural aquatic colloidal matter : Characteristics and impact on the mobility of trace metals and organics

   Author : Anders Düker; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

   Abstract : Natural colloidal (< 1.0 µm) matter plays an important role for tbe transport and redistribution of water-borne substances. The aim of this work was to characterise colloidal matter from surface waters and groundwaters, and to improve on the understanding on the role of natural colloidal matter in the redistribution and mobility of trace metals.

4. 2. Lake sediment as environmental archive : natural and anthropogenic influence on the chronology of trace elements

   Author : Evastina Grahn; Stefan Karlsson; Anders Düker; Bo Bergbäck; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lake sediment; environmental pollution; trace elements; chronology; diagenesis; Ag; Be; Ga; In; Pb; Sb; Tl; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; Enviromental Science; Miljövetenskap;

   Abstract : The focus of this thesis is the historical pollution of some seldom-monitored trace elements (SMTEs; Ag, Be, Ga, In, Sb and Tl) that have been involuntarily released for several thousands of years but whose usage have increased during the industrial era. Sediment cores from four rural lakes in a south to north transect in central Sweden, and two urban lakes have been used as environmental archives for chronological studies. READ MORE

5. 3. Rapid analysis of actinide isotopes using quadrupole ICP-MS for emergency preparedness and environmental monitoring

   Author : Christina Greis; Stefan Karlsson; Bert Allard; Anders Düker; Håkan Pettersson; Gi-Hoon Hong; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quadrupole ICP-MS; actinides; plutonium; preparedness; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Chemistry; Kemi; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; Enviromental Science; Miljövetenskap;

   Abstract : Transuranium elements in the environment are mainly derived from nuclear weapons testing and the nuclear fuel cycle. Of growing concern are illicit nuclear trafficking and the threat of terror acts. READ MORE

6. 4. Capillary zone electrophoresis for the analysis of low molecular weight organic acids in environmental systems

   Author : Jessika Hagberg; Bert Allard; Stefan Karlsson; Anders Düker; Patrick van Hees; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; capillary zone electrophoresis; capillary zone electrophoresis-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry; low molecular weight organic acids; pKa; Chemistry; Kemi; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : Capillary zone electrophoretic (CZE) methods were developed to identify and quantify low molecular weight (LMW) organic acids in environmental samples. Sensitivity and selectivity were optimised by adapting the background electrolyte to the characteristics of analytes, and by using different modes of detection and injection. READ MORE

7. 5. Environmental levels of thallium : influence of redox properties and anthropogenic sources

   Author : Ulrika Karlsson; Stefan Karlsson; Anders Düker; Roger Herbert; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thallium; Tl I ; Tl III ; separation; ion chromatography; fresh water; sediment; mine waste; fly ash; redistribution; ICP-MS; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : Thallium is a highly toxic element that humans are exposed to mainly by consumption of drinking water and vegetables grown in soil with high thallium content but also through inhalation of particles in the air. Thallium is also present in fossil fuels, alloys, and in electronic utilities. READ MORE
