Association between exposure to different stone aggregates from asphalt and blood coagulability: A human exposure chamber study
Nitter, Therese Bergh; Hilt, Bjørn; Svendsen, Kristin V Hirsch; Buhagen, Morten; Jørgensen, Rikke Bramming (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A large fraction of particulate matter (PM), especially PM10, concentrations are due to non-exhaust emissions, such as road abrasion and wear on tires and brake pads. Concentrating on road abrasion, we aimed to investigate ... -
Can CO2 sensors in the ventilation system of a pool facility help reduce the variability in the trihalomethane concentration observed in indoor air?
Nitter, Therese Bergh; Grande, Morten S.; Svendsen, Kristin V Hirsch; Jørgensen, Rikke Bramming; Carlucci, Salvatore; Cao, Guangyu (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Volatile and hazardous compounds are formed during the chlorination of pool water. Monitoring components in the air, such as the four trihalomethanes; chloroform, dichlorobromomethane, dibromochloromethane and bromoform ... -
Comparison of trihalomethanes in the air of two Indoor swimming pool facilities using different type of chlorination and different types of water
Nitter, Therese Bergh; Kampel, Wolfgang; Svendsen, Kristin V Hirsch; Aas, Bjørn (Journal article, 2017)Certain aspects of the distribution of disinfection by-products (DBPs) in the air of indoor swimming pools, the exposure of the users, and possible health effects, have not been well documented. To determine the distribution ... -
Covariation amongst pool management, trichloramine exposure and asthma for swimmers in Norway
Nitter, Therese Bergh; Svendsen, Kristin V Hirsch (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The association between asthma and exposure to the air in swimming facilities has been acknowledged. However, the variation in, long-term exposure to and management of the respiratory irritant trichloramine (NCl3) is not ... -
Determinants of Exposure and Variability of Trihalomethanes in the Air of Three Indoor Swimming Pools
Nitter, Therese Bergh; Svendsen, Kristin V Hirsch (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Introduction Negative health effects related to long-term exposure to volatile trihalomethanes (THMs) formed during the chlorination of pool water is recognized, but the determinants causing the concentrations to vary ... -
Energy use and perceived health in indoor swimming pool facilities
Nitter, Therese Bergh; Carlucci, Salvatore; Nordbo Olsen, Snorre; Svendsen, Kristin V Hirsch (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Swimming facilities are one of the most complex building categories with their high energy use and demanding indoor environment. A survey to collect information about user health and comfort, technical installations and ... -
Luftkvalitet i innendørs svømmeanlegg - Sammenligning av trihalometaner i to svømmeanlegg som har ulik type klorering og ulik type vann
Nitter, Therese Bergh (Master thesis, 2017)Svømmebasseng brukes både til sport og rekreasjon og er populært blant mennesker i alle aldersgrupper. I Norge benyttes ofte klor til å desinfisere badevannet, enten alene eller sammen med UV- bestråling. Desinfisering er ... -
Modelling the concentration of chloroform in the air of a Norwegian swimming pool facility-A repeated measures study
Nitter, Therese Bergh; Svendsen, Kristin V Hirsch (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Certain volatile disinfection by-products (DBPs) off-gassing from pool water can cause eye and skin irritations, respiratory problems, and even cancer. No guidelines or recommendations concerning DBPs in the air exist in ... -
