Bioaerosol-induced in vitro activation of toll-like receptors and inflammatory biomarker expression in waste workers
Eriksen, Elke; Afanou, Komlavi Anani; Straumfors, Anne; Graff, Pål (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Purpose Occupational exposure to bioaerosols during waste handling remains a health concern for exposed workers. However, exposure-related health effects and underlying immunological mechanisms are still poorly described. ... -
Comprehensive assessment of occupational exposure to microbial contamination in waste sorting facilities from Norway
Viegas, Carla; Eriksen, Elke; Gomes, Bianca; Dias, Marta; Cervantes, Renata; Pena, Pedro; Carolino, Elisabete; Twarużek, Magdalena; Caetano, Liliana Aranha; Viegas, Susana; Graff, Pål; Afanou, Komlavi Anani; Straumfors, Anne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Introduction: It is of upmost importance to contribute to fill the knowledge gap concerning the characterization of the occupational exposure to microbial agents in the waste sorting setting (automated and manual sorting). ... -
