Benefits

Salary

Amount: 2.091,78 € gross, monthly

Duties and responsabilities:

Objective 2. Multielement analysis in soils and waters of aquatic ecosystems. Task 1. Treatment of samples through mineralization in a microwave system. Task 2. Multilemental analysis of soil and water samples using ICP-QQQ-MS. Task 3. Comparison of the concentrations with the levels of the bibliography and previous reports to the Ministry of the Environment of the Junta de Andalucía. 
Objective 3. Multielement analysis in biological samples of birds (blood, eggs and feathers) from aquatic ecosystems. Task 1. Treatment of samples through mineralization in a microwave system. Task 2. Multilemental analysis of biological samples from birds (blood, eggs and feathers) using ICP-QQQ-MS. Task 3. Comparison of the concentrations with the levels of the bibliography and previous reports to the Ministry of the Environment of the Junta de Andalucía.
Objective 5. Analysis of herbicides and other pesticides in waters of aquatic ecosystems. Task 1. Extraction of herbicides and other pesticides from water samples. Task 2. Analysis using UHPLC-ICP-MS, UHPLC-QTOF, GC-ECD and GC-MS based on the molecular characteristics of organic micropollutants.
Objective 6. Metabolomic analysis of poultry blood to evaluate the biological response to potential contamination through alteration of metabolic pathways. Task 1. Non-targeted extraction of metabolites from blood samples. Task 2. Non-targeted metabolomic analysis using UHPLC-QTOF and IM-QTOF. Task 3. Statistical and correlation analysis through comparison of metabolites in biological samples of birds from the different areas under study based on the levels found in their habitats (soil and water) for the search for possible biomarkers of environmental stress metabolic disorders and possible alterations of metabolic pathways. Task 4. Statistical analysis through comparison of biological samples from the different areas under study.


Eligibility criteria

Preferred merits: 

Master's thesis in analytical chemistry, and experience in metabolomics, analysis of environmental and biological samples, mass spectrometry, gas and liquid chromatography and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
