2. 1. Rapid sample preparation and bioanalytical techniques for efficient screening of organic pollutants in the environment

   Author : Malin Nording; Peter Haglund; Ron Hoogenboom; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; accelerated solvent extraction; CAFLUX; food; immunoassay; PAH; PCDD; PCDF; pressurized liquid extraction; soil; CALUX; cell-based bioassay; chemically activated fluorescent gene expression; chemically activated luciferase gene expression; dioxin; ELISA; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; feed; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

   Abstract : Large numbers of samples often need to be prepared and analysed in surveys of organic pollutants in the environment, but while the methods commonly used in such surveys can provide abundant detail they are generally costly, time-consuming and require large amounts of resources, so there is a need for simpler techniques. The work underlying this thesis assessed the potential utility of more convenient sample preparation and bioanalytical techniques for rapidly screening various environmental matrices that could be useful complements to higher resolution methods.

4. 2. Multi-platform metabolomics assays to study the responsiveness of the human plasma and lung lavage metabolome

   Author : Masoumeh Karimpour; Malin Nording L.; Magnus Åberg; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; LC MS; GC MS; NMR; metabolomics; metabolite; exposure; postprandial; plasma; lung lavage; BW; BW; data analysis; univariate analysis; multivariate analysis;

   Abstract : Metabolomics as a field has been used to track changes and perturbations in the human body by investigating metabolite profiles indicating the change of metabolite levels over time and in response to different challenges. In this thesis work, the main focus was on applying multiplatform-metabolomics to study the human metabolome following exposure to perturbations, such as diet (in the form of a challenge meal) and exhaust emissions (air pollution exposure in a controlled setting).

5. 3. Damsel in distress – metabolomics as a novel tool to investigate the effects of wastewater exposure on damselfly larvae

   Author : Jana Späth; Malin L. Nording; Jerker Fick; Stina Jansson; Tuulia Hyötyläinen; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biomarkers; ecotoxicology; invertebrates; GC-MS; LC-MS; LC-MS MS; metabolomics; micropollutants; pharmaceuticals; risk assessment; ekotoxikologi; Ecotoxicology; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

   Abstract : Aquatic organisms, such as aquatic invertebrates, are exposed to anthropogenic pollutants through their environment. These pollutants, despite their low levels, can adversely affect exposed individuals or even entire ecosystems, especially when present in complex mixtures. READ MORE
