Biomarkers of acrylamide, glycidol, POPs, PFAS
These are food contaminants (acrylamide, glycidol) and environmental pollutants (POPs, PFAS). Assess the associations between biomarkers of acrylamide and glycidol exposure and disease outcomes in a case-cohort study based on two prospective cohorts with biobanks. The investigators also aim to assess the exposure-affected OMICS signatures and molecular pathways underlying disease development (specifically cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke and cancer such as breast-, endometrial and colorectal cancer) for these exposures along with POPs and PFAS using a prospective cohort study utilizing and integrating various 'OMICs' technologies.
