  2. 6. Clinical aspects of Mycoplasma genitalium infection

    Author : Eva Björnelius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The microorganism Mycoplasma (M.) genitalium was first isolated by culture in 1980. Further attempts to culture this mycoplasma were difficult because of its slow growing nature. The development of polymerase chain reaction methods has made it possible to detect M. READ MORE

  4. 7. Cellular receptors for viruses with ocular tropism

    Author : Emma C Nilsson; Niklas Arnberg; Eric J Kremer; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adenovirus; picornavirus; receptors; antivirals; Virology; Virologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology; Infectious Diseases; infektionssjukdomar; mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Abstract : Several viruses from different virus families are known to cause ocular infections, e.g. members of the Adenoviridae, Picornaviridae and the Herpesviridae families. These infections are spread by contact and in the case of adenoviruses (Ads) and picornaviruses they are also highly contagious. READ MORE

  5. 8. Dental restorative materials from a work environmental perspective

    Author : Emma-Christin Lönnroth; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial Work Environment; Industriell produktionsmiljö;

    Abstract : The main occupational health hazard for dental personnel is muscle-skeletal problem, followed by symptoms caused by exposure to chemicals. Clinical dental work includes exposure to a number of products like soap, detergents, disinfectants, amalgam, mono- and oligomers, catalysts, inhibitors, solvents and adhesives. Some are chemically very active. READ MORE

  6. 9. Protein adducts of hexahydrophthalic anhydride- chemical structures and biomarkers

    Author : Monica Kåredal; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; arbetsmiljömedicin; Yrkesmedicin; industrial medicine; Occupational health; nasal lavage; mass spectrometry; biomarker; human serum albumin; hemoglobin; Hexahydrophthalic anhydride; adducts;

    Abstract : Organic acid anhydrides (OAAs) are low molecular weight chemicals used in the industry for manufacturing of plastics such as epoxy resins. Exposure to these chemicals may lead to symptoms from the eyes and the respiratory tract in form of conjunctivitis, rhinitis and asthma. READ MORE

  7. 10. Metabolism and Biological Monitoring of Organic Acid Anhydrides

    Author : Christian Lindh; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to describe the metabolism and to develope methods for biological monitoring for two organic acid anhydrides (OAAs), namely hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HHPA) and methylhexa-hydrophthalic anhydride (MHHPA). The OAAs are reactive, low molecular weight chemicals used in vast quantities in the industry. READ MORE
