    Abstract : Humans are exposed to chemical compounds in everyday life, both from the environment and from endogenous processes. Some compounds constitute a risk for cancer development. One such compound is glycidol, which is genotoxic and an animal carcinogen. It is the model compound of this work, partly due to its presence in food. READ MORE

  4. 2. Biomonitoring of epichlorohydrin and some related compounds

    Author : Helena Hindsø Landin; Bo Jönsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biomarkers; DNA Adducts; Epichlorohydrin; Glycidol; Hemoglobin adducts.; Physical Biology; fysikalisk biologi;

    Abstract : This thesis considers epichlorohydrin (ECH), an important industrial chemical, that has been shown to be a carcinogen in experimental animals. The aim of this work is to improve the scientific basis for risk estimation of ECH and to suggest a reliable biomonitoring method for exposure. READ MORE

  5. 3. Synthesis and Development of Methods for Preparation of Inositolphosphoglycans, Glycoglycerolipids and Glycerophospholipids

    Author : Jan Lindberg; Bertram Fraser-Reid; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the synthesis of a series of myo-inositol-containing oligosaccharides, and the exploration of using the chiral epoxide (S)-glycidol in short synthetic routes to glycoglycerolipids and glycerophospholipids.In chapter 2, synthesis of the core heptasaccharyl myo-inositol Galp(α1-6)Galp(α1 -3)Galf(β1-3)[Glcp(α1-P04-6)Manp](α1-3)Manp(α1-4)GlcNp(α1-6)Ins-1-P04, found in the lipophosphoglycans of Leishmania parasites, is described.
