    • Characterizing cytotoxic and estrogenic activity of Arctic char tissue extracts in primary Arctic char hepatocytes 

      Petersen, Karina; Hultman, Maria Thérése; Bytingsvik, Jenny; Harju, Mikael; Evenset, Anita; Tollefsen, Knut Erik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-09-01)
      Contaminants from various anthropogenic activities are detected in the Arctic due to long-range atmospheric transport, ocean currents, and living organisms such as migrating fish or seabirds. Although levels of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in Arctic fish are generally low, local hot spots of contamination were found in freshwater systems such as Lake Ellasjøen at Bjørnøya (Bear Island, ...

    • Choose your poison – Space-use strategy influences pollutant exposure in Barents Sea polar bears 

      Tartu, Sabrina; Aars, Jon; Andersen, Magnus; Polder, Anuschka; Bourgeon, Sophie; Merkel, Benjamin; Lowther, Andrew D.; Bytingsvik, Jenny; Welker, Jeffrey Martin; Derocher, Andrew E.; Jenssen, Bjørn Munro; Routti, Heli (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-24)
      Variation in space-use is common within mammal populations. In polar bears, Ursus maritimus, some individuals follow the sea ice (offshore bears) whereas others remain nearshore yearlong (coastal bears). We studied pollutant exposure in relation to space-use patterns (offshore vs coastal) in adult female polar bears from the Barents Sea equipped with satellite collars (2000–2014, n = 152). First, ...

      Since the last Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) effort to review biological effects of the exposure to organohalogen compounds (OHCs) in Arctic biota, there has been a considerable number of new Arctic effect studies. Here, we provide an update on the state of the knowledge of OHC, and also include mercury, exposure and/or associated effects in key Arctic marine and terrestrial ...

    • A deep dive into fat: Investigating blubber lipidomic fingerprint of killer whales and humpback whales in northern Norway 

      Bories, Pierre; Rikardsen, Audun H.; Leonards, Pim; Fisk, Aaron T.; Tartu, Sabrina; Vogel, Emma; Bytingsvik, Jenny; Blévin, Pierre (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-05-01)
      In cetaceans, blubber is the primary and largest lipid body reservoir. Our current understanding about lipid stores and uses in cetaceans is still limited, and most studies only focused on a single narrow snapshot of the lipidome. We documented an extended lipidomic fingerprint in two cetacean species present in northern Norway during wintertime. We were able to detect 817 molecular lipid species ...

    • DNA double‐strand breaks in Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) from Bjørnøya in the Norwegian Arctic 

      Neerland, Eirik D.; Bytingsvik, Jenny; Nikiforov, Vladimir; Evenset, Anita; Krøkje, Åse (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-25)
      High levels of organochlorine contaminants (OCs) have been found in arctic char (<i>Salvelinus alpinus</i>) from Lake Ellasjøen, Bjørnøya (Norwegian Arctic). The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential genotoxic effect of environmental organochlorine contaminant exposure in arctic char from Ellasjøen compared with arctic char from the low‐contaminated Lake Laksvatn nearby. Blood ...

    • Effects of the sea lice bath treatment pharmaceuticals hydrogen peroxide, azamethiphos and deltamethrin on egg-carrying shrimp (Pandalus borealis) 

      Frantzen, Marianne; Bytingsvik, Jenny; Tassara, Luca; Reinardy, Helena C.; Refseth, Gro Harlaug; Watts, Ellie J.; Evenset, Anita (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-16)
      This study investigated effects of sea lice pharmaceuticals on egg-bearing deep-water shrimp (Pandalus borealis). Both mortality and sub-lethal effects (behavior, embryo development, and reproductive output) were studied for each of three pharmaceuticals alone and in different sequential combinations. The most severe effect was observed for deltamethrin where 2 h exposure to 330 times diluted treatment ...

    • Expression of DNA repair genes in arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) from Bjørnøya in the Norwegian Arctic 

      Inderberg, Helene; Neerland, Eirik D.; Mcpartland, Molly; Sparstad, Torfinn; Bytingsvik, Jenny; Nikiforov, Vladimir A; Evenset, Anita; Krøkje, Åse (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-08)
      High levels of organochlorines (OCs) have been measured in arctic char (<i>Salvelinus alpinus</i>) from Lake Ellasjøen on Bjørnøya, Norway (74.30°N, 19.0°E). In a nearby lake, Laksvatn, the OC-levels in arctic char were low. A previous study has shown that char from Ellasjøen had significantly higher levels of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) than char from Lake Laksvatn. Even though there is increasing ...

    • Occurrence of emerging brominated flame retardants and organophosphate esters in marine wildlife from the Norwegian Arctic 

      Lippold, Anna; Harju, Mikael; Aars, Jon; Blévin, Pierre; Bytingsvik, Jenny; Gabrielsen, Geir W.; Kovacs, Kit M.; Lyche, Jan Ludwig; Lydersen, Christian; Rikardsen, Audun H.; Routti, Heli Anna Irmeli (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-10)
      To understand the exposure and potential sources of emerging brominated flame retardants (EBFR) and organophosphate esters (OPEs) in marine wildlife from the Norwegian Arctic, we investigated concentrations of EBFRs in 157 tissue samples from nine species of marine vertebrates and OPEs in 34 samples from three whale species. The samples, collected from a wide range of species with contrasting ...

    • Temporal trends of persistent organic pollutants in Barents Sea polar bears (Ursus maritimus) in relation to changes in feeding habits and body condition 

      Lippold, Anna; Bourgeon, Sophie; Aars, Jon; Andersen, Magnus; Polder, Anuschka; Lyche, Jan Ludvig; Bytingsvik, Jenny; Jenssen, Bjørn Munro; Derocher, Andrew E.; Welker, Jeffrey Martin; Routti, Heli (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-14)
      Temporal trends of persistent organic pollutants (POPs: PCBs, OH-PCBs, <i>p,p′</i>-DDE, HCB, β-HCH, oxychlordane, BDE-47, and 153) in relation to changes in feeding habits and body condition in adult female polar bears (<i>Ursus maritimus</i>) from the Barents Sea subpopulation were examined over 20 years (1997–2017). All 306 samples were collected in the spring (April). Both stable isotope values ...
