• Exposure and effects assessment of persistent organohalogen contaminants in arctic wildlife and fish. (2010, background): “Furthermore, Sagerup et al. (2000) found that individuals with high OHC levels had higher parasite (nematodes) burdens than birds with low levels, and a parasite removal experiment found some evidence of a trade-off between immune function and defense against OHCs (Bustnes et al., 2006a).”
• The toxicology of climate change: environmental contaminants in a warming world. (2009, background): “…coupled with toxic contaminant exposures could render wildlife more susceptible to disease by inhibiting their ability to mount an effective immune response (Breivik et al., 2004; Burek et al., 2008; de Swart et al., 1996; Gilbertson et al., 2003; Kajiwara et al., 2002; Sagerup et al., 2000).”
