  2. 1. Exposure and effects of naturally produced hydroxylated polybrominated diphenyl ethers in fish : Implications for Baltic Sea wildlife

    Author : Johan Gustafsson; Lillemor Asplund; Pim E.G. Leonards; Marja H. Lamoree; Robert Letcher; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecotoxicology; Metabolomics; OH-PBDE; Algae; Cyanobacteria; Natural products; Thiamine; Health; Biomarker; Seasonal variation; Perch; Zebrafish; Flame retardant; Mixture; 6-OH-BDE47; Energy metabolism; Endocrine disruption; Neurotoxicity; OXPHOS; Environmental Chemistry; miljökemi;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to investigate if naturally produced hydroxylated polybrominated diphenyl ethers (OH-PBDEs) are causing negative health effects for Baltic Sea wildlife. In the laboratory, OH-PBDEs have shown to be potent disrupters of energy metabolism as well as endocrine disruptors and neurotoxins. READ MORE

  4. 2. Effects of Antioxidant and Lipid Lowering Treatment on Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease : With special reference to Mixed Tocopherols and Stable Fish Oil

    Author : Meilin Liu; Afaf Kamal-Eldin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; Cardiovascular disease; Antioxidants; Tocopherols; Endothelial constitutive nitric oxide synthase; Superoxide dismutase; Protein kinase C; Fish oils; Fatty acids; Simvastatin; Lipoprotein; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin; rättsmedicin; Forensic Medicine;

    Abstract : Vitamin E in food, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and lipid lowering treatment with statins have been found to decrease the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cardiac death. However, clinical trials revealed no beneficial effect of intake of alpha-tocopherol alone. READ MORE

  5. 3. Thiamine dynamics in the pelagic food web of the Baltic Sea

    Author : Peter Sylvander; Snoeijs Pauline; Anders Bignert; Dale C Honeyfield; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thiamine; Vitamin B1; Baltic Sea; M74; marin ekologi; Marine Ecology;

    Abstract : Thiamine (vitamin B1) is involved in several basal metabolic processes. It is an essential compound for many organisms and in aquatic systems it is mainly produced by phytoplankton and prokaryotes and transferred to higher trophic levels through grazing and predation. READ MORE

  6. 4. Supercritical fluid extraction of bioactive compounds from berry seeds

    Author : Graziele Gustinelli Carvalho; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tocopherols; Carotenoids; Fatty acids; Anti-oxidative activity; Berry seed oils; Microscopy.; Tocotrienols; Supercritical CO2 extraction;

    Abstract : Industrial processing of berries into food and beverages generates seeds as a by-product. Most of these seeds are treated as waste even though they contain valuable biological compounds. An approach to adding value to the process is to extract these compounds from the seeds. READ MORE

  7. 5. Infant feeding and allergy in children

    Author : Inger Kull; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Allergy; asthma; BAMSE; breastfeeding; children; diet; eczema; fish; food hypersensitivity; prevention; rhinitis; sensitisation; vitamin D;

    Abstract : Despite intensive research, the knowledge on causes behind the increase in allergic diseases among children is incomplete. Altered environmental exposures and changes in lifestyle have been hypothesised to play a role, including dietary intake. READ MORE
