Anti-parasite treatment and blood biochemistry in raptor nestlings
Hanssen, Sveinn Are; Sonne, Christian; Bustnes, Jan Ove; Schnug, Lisbeth; Bourgeon, Sophie; Ballesteros, Manuel; Eulaers, Igor; Moum, Truls Borg; Johnsen, Trond Vidar; Kjelgaard-Hansen, Mads; Herzke, Dorte; Jaspers, Veerle; Covaci, Adrian; Eens, Marcel; Halley, Duncan John; Erikstad, Kjell Einar; Ims, Rolf Anker (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)We investigated the effects of parasite removal on various blood clinical–chemical variables (BCCVs). BCCVs are indicators of health, reflecting, e.g., homeostasis of liver, kidney function, and bone metabolism. The study ... -
Antiparasite treatments reduce humoral immunity and impact oxidative status in raptor nestlings

Bird feathers as a biomonitor for environmental pollutants: Prospects and pitfalls
Jaspers, Veerle; Covaci, Adrian; Herzke, Dorte; Eulaers, Igor; Eens, Marcel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Due to increasing amounts of hazardous chemicals released into the environment, there is a high demand for developing easy and non-destructive biomonitoring tools. In a recent paper published in Trends in Analytical ... -
Developmental toxicity of perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) and its chlorinated polyfluoroalkyl ether sulfonate alternative F-53B in the domestic chicken
Briels, Nathalie; Ciesielski, Tomasz Maciej; Herzke, Dorte; Jaspers, Veerle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Integrated exposure assessment of northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) nestlings to legacy and emerging organic pollutants using non-destructive samples
Briels, Nathalie; Torgersen, Lene Norstrand; Castaño-Ortiz, Jose M.; Løseth, Mari Engvig; Herzke, Dorte; Nygård, Torgeir; Bustnes, Jan Ove; Ciesielski, Tomasz Maciej; Poma, Giulia; Malarvannan, Govindan; Covaci, Adrian; Jaspers, Veerle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In the present study, concentrations of legacy and emerging contaminants were determined in three non-destructive matrices (plasma, preen oil and body feathers) of northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) nestlings. Persistent ... -
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in plasma and feathers of nestling birds of prey from northern Norway
Gómez-Ramírez, P.; Bustnes, Jan Ove; Eulaers, I; Herzke, Dorte; Johnsen, Trond Vidar; Lepoint, G; Perez-Garcia, JM; García-Fernández, A.J.; Jaspers, Veerle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017) -

Svendsen, Niels Borup; Herzke, Dorte; Harju, Mikael; Bech, Claus; Gabrielsen, Geir W.; Jaspers, Veerle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Plasma concentrations of organohalogenated contaminants in white-tailed eagle nestlings – The role of age and diet
Løseth, Mari Engvig; Briels, Nathalie; Eulaers, Igor; Nygård, Torgeir; Malarvannan, Govindan; Poma, Giulia; Covaci, Adrian; Herzke, Dorte; Bustnes, Jan Ove; Lepoint, Gilles; Jenssen, Bjørn Munro; Jaspers, Veerle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Concentrations of organohalogenated contaminants (OHCs) can show significant temporal and spatial variation in the environment and wildlife. Most of the variation is due to changes in use and production, but environmental ... -

Espín, Silvia; Andevski, Jovan; Duke, Guy; Eulaers, Igor; Gomez-Ramirez, Pilar; Hallgrimsson, Gunnar Thor; Helander, Björn; Herzke, Dorte; Jaspers, Veerle; Krone, Oliver; Lourenco, Rui; Maria-Mojica, Pedro; Martínez-López, Emma; Mateo, Rafael; Movalli, Paola; Sanchez-Virosta, Pablo; Shore, Richard F.; Sonne, Christian; van den Brink, Nico W.; van Hattum, B.; Vrezec, Al; Wernham, Chris; García-Fernández, Antonio J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Birds of prey, owls and falcons are widely used as sentinel species in raptor biomonitoring programmes. A major current challenge is to facilitate large-scale biomonitoring by coordinating contaminant monitoring activities ... -
