Ingurumen-kutsaduraren isla jaioberrien lehen elikagaian: substantzia arrotzen analisia ama-esnean

Abstract

A part of current diseases is related to the environmental contamination we are daily exposed to. The study of the exposure and consequent health issues is known as “exposome”. One of the main throwbacks this type of studies own is the huge number of pollutants (and potential metabolites) of interest. Consequently, broad-scoped analyses are suitable options when coping with those numbers. As target matrix, breast milk is of special interest, since contaminants accumulate there, affecting both mother and nursing child. Based on the above mentioned, the aim of this project is to develop analytical procedures to study the presence of 187 xenobiotics and related metabolites in breast milk, to analyze milk samples from the Basque Bank of Breast Milk in the future.
