Associations between urinary biomarkers of oxidative stress and biomarkers of tobacco smoke exposure in smokers
Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean, Nicolas Sambiagio
Oxidative stress can contribute to the development of diseases, and may originate from exposures to toxicants commonly found in air pollution and cigarette smoke such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Yet, as ...
Elsevier2022Re-assessing the Formation of N-nitrosamines during Chloramination of Various Nitrogenous Compounds using Specific and Total N-nitrosamines Analysis
Urs von Gunten, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Andrea Piazzoli
N-nitrosamines (NOAs) are potent carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds that can be present in water, biological fluids, food, consumer products and cigarette smoke. Several studies have shown that the formation of NOAs in water can arise from the reactions ...
2018Specific and total N -nitrosamines formation potentials of nitrogenous micropollutants during chloramination
Urs von Gunten, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Caroline Gachet Aquillon, Andrea Piazzoli
N-nitrosamines are a group of potent human carcinogens that can be formed during oxidative treatment of drinking water and wastewater. Many tertiary and quaternary amines present in consumer products (e.g., pharmaceuticals, personal care and household prod ...
2018Development of a new simple fluorometric method for total N-nitrosamines analysis in water
N-nitrosamines are known as carcinogenic compounds and arouse today more and more attention as micropollutants and disinfection by-products. Indeed, they were newly found in several drinking waters, wastewaters and greywaters. It was proven that they can f ...
2017Increased Myeloid Cell Production and Lung Bacterial Clearance in Mice Exposed to Cigarette Smoke
Pneumonia is a leading cause of hospitalization in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although most patients with COPD are smokers, the effects of cigarette smoke exposure on clearance of lung bacterial pathogens and on immune and ...
