  1. 1. SINGLE AND COMBINED EXPOSURE OF POLYSTYRENE NANOPARTICLES AND NORTH SEA MARINE OIL IN TWO IN VITRO FISH MODELS

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Monica Olsson; [2022-10-05]
    Keywords : Polystyrene nanoparticles; crude oil; combined toxicity; cytotoxicity; oxidative stress;

    Abstract : The awareness of micro-and nanoplastic pollution and its impact on the marine ecosystem has increased over the last decade. Nanoplastics may affect aquatic organisms since their small size and high surface-to-volume ratio increases their bioavailability and ability to cross biological membranes. READ MORE

  3. 2. Mechanism specific effects of two organic pollutants in a single and co-cultured system using two cell lines from Rainbow trout

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Nicole Stylin; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The present project aims at the investigation of the toxic effects of two organic environmental compounds and to determine whether the interactions of the compounds are different in a single and co-cultured system using two cell lines. The two compounds used for this purpose were PFBS (perfluorobutanesulfonic acid) and BaP (benzo[a]pyrene). READ MORE

  4. 3. Predicting Mechanisms of Toxicity for Drug Development
