Mechanism of interaction of Acanthamoeba actophorin (ADF/Cofilin) with actin filaments. (1/202)

We characterized the interaction of Acanthamoeba actophorin, a member of ADF/cofilin family, with filaments of amoeba and rabbit skeletal muscle actin. The affinity is about 10 times higher for muscle actin filaments (Kd = 0.5 microM) than amoeba actin filaments (Kd = 5 microM) even though the affinity for muscle and amoeba Mg-ADP-actin monomers (Kd = 0.1 microM) is the same (Blanchoin, L., and Pollard, T. D. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 25106-25111). Actophorin binds slowly (k+ = 0.03 microM-1 s-1) to and dissociates from amoeba actin filaments in a simple bimolecular reaction, but binding to muscle actin filaments is cooperative. Actophorin severs filaments in a concentration-dependent fashion. Phosphate or BeF3 bound to ADP-actin filaments inhibit actophorin binding. Actophorin increases the rate of phosphate release from actin filaments more than 10-fold. The time course of the interaction of actophorin with filaments measured by quenching of the fluorescence of pyrenyl-actin or fluorescence anisotropy of rhodamine-actophorin is complicated, because severing, depolymerization, and repolymerization follows binding. The 50-fold higher affinity of actophorin for Mg-ADP-actin monomers (Kd = 0.1 microM) than ADP-actin filaments provides the thermodynamic basis for driving disassembly of filaments that have hydrolyzed ATP and dissociated gamma-phosphate.  (+info)

Exposure of cultured murine peritoneal macrophages to low concentrations of beryllium induces increases in intracellular calcium concentrations and stimulates DNA synthesis. (2/202)

Exposure of humans to beryllium dusts can induce a specific form of chronic pneumonitis that consists mainly of noncaseating granulomas in the lungs. Multiple studies have documented both genetic and immune components of chronic berylliosis. Much work has focused on T cells and their reactivity in berylliosis, but less work has focused on the end effector cells in granulomatous inflammation, macrophages. Because macrophages must become activated to form granulomas, and they become activated by responding to numerous immunomodulatory signals, we investigated the effects of beryllium (BeCl2) on a central signal transduction pathway in macrophages, increases in intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i). Exposure of cultured murine peritoneal macrophages to low, nontoxic concentrations induced successive spikes or oscillations in [Ca2+]i. Concentrations as low as 5 nM induced significant increases in [Ca2+]i. The source of the increased [Ca2+]i was exclusively extracellular in that increases in [Ca2+]i could be completely blocked by chelating extracellular Ca2+, were inhibited by the Ca2+ channel blocker verapamil, and exposure of macrophages to BeCl2 had no effect on IP3 concentrations. DNA synthesis, a Ca2+-sensitive function, was enhanced in dividing 1LN cells and induced de novo in quiescent macrophages. Furthermore, BeCl2 enhanced DNA synthesis in the absence of coexposure to the protein kinase C activator phorbol myristate acetate. These data support the hypothesis that beryllium toxicity is in part the result of altered Ca2+ metabolism in mononuclear phagocytes consequent to reversible opening of plasma membrane channels.  (+info)

Identification of pathogenic T cells in patients with beryllium-induced lung disease. (3/202)

Chronic beryllium disease (CBD) is caused by beryllium exposure and is characterized by granulomatous inflammation with accumulation of CD4+ T cells in the lung. We analyzed TCR beta-chain and alpha-chain genes expressed by these CD4+ T cells. In the lungs of individual patients, as well as among four of five CBD patients studied, different oligoclonal expansions within the Vbeta3 subset were found to express homologous or even identical CDR3 amino acid sequences. These related expansions were specific for CBD patients, were compartmentalized to lung, and persisted at high frequency in patients with active disease. Limiting dilution cloning and analysis of coexpressed TCR alpha-chain genes confirmed that these TCRs were selectively expanded by a common Ag involving beryllium. Overall, homologous TCR beta- and alpha-chains showed identical V regions and invariant charged residues within the CDR3 but considerable variability in TCRJ usage. Remarkably, CBD patients expressing nearly identical TCRs did not share common HLA-DRB1 or DQ alleles. These results implicate particular CD4+ cells in the pathogenesis of CBD and provide insight into how beryllium is recognized in human disease.  (+info)

Partial IL-10 inhibition of the cell-mediated immune response in chronic beryllium disease. (4/202)

Chronic beryllium disease (CBD) provides a human disorder in which to study the delayed type IV hypersensitivity response to persistent Ag that leads to noncaseating pulmonary granuloma formation. We hypothesized that, in CBD, failure of IL-10 to modulate the beryllium-specific, cell-mediated immune response would result in persistent, maximal cytokine production and T lymphocyte proliferation, thus contributing to the development of granulomatous lung disease. To test this hypothesis, we used bronchoalveolar lavage cells from control and CBD subjects to evaluate the beryllium salt-specific production of endogenous IL-10 and the effects of exogenous human rIL-10 (rhIL-10) on HLA expression, on the production of IL-2, IFN-gamma, and TNF-alpha, and on T lymphocyte proliferation. Our data demonstrate that beryllium-stimulated bronchoalveolar lavage cells produce IL-10, and the neutralization of endogenous IL-10 does not increase significantly cytokine production, HLA expression, or T lymphocyte proliferation. Second, the addition of excess exogenous rhIL-10 partially inhibited the beryllium-stimulated production of IL-2, IFN-gamma, and TNF-alpha; however, we measured no change in T lymphocyte proliferation or in the percentage of alveolar macrophages expressing HLA-DP. Interestingly, beryllium salts interfered with an IL-10-stimulated decrease in the percentage of alveolar macrophages expressing HLA-DR. We conclude that, in the CBD-derived, beryllium-stimulated cell-mediated immune response, low levels of endogenous IL-10 have no appreciable effect; exogenous rhIL-10 has a limited effect on cytokine production and no effect on T lymphocyte proliferation or HLA expression.  (+info)

Chronic beryllium disease and cancer risk estimates with uncertainty for beryllium released to the air from the Rocky Flats Plant. (5/202)

Beryllium was released into the air from routine operations and three accidental fires at the Rocky Flats Plant (RFP) in Colorado from 1958 to 1989. We evaluated environmental monitoring data and developed estimates of airborne concentrations and their uncertainties and calculated lifetime cancer risks and risks of chronic beryllium disease to hypothetical receptors. This article discusses exposure-response relationships for lung cancer and chronic beryllium disease. We assigned a distribution to cancer slope factor values based on the relative risk estimates from an occupational epidemiologic study used by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to determine the slope factors. We used the regional atmospheric transport code for Hanford emission tracking atmospheric transport model for exposure calculations because it is particularly well suited for long-term annual-average dispersion estimates and it incorporates spatially varying meteorologic and environmental parameters. We accounted for model prediction uncertainty by using several multiplicative stochastic correction factors that accounted for uncertainty in the dispersion estimate, the meteorology, deposition, and plume depletion. We used Monte Carlo techniques to propagate model prediction uncertainty through to the final risk calculations. We developed nine exposure scenarios of hypothetical but typical residents of the RFP area to consider the lifestyle, time spent outdoors, location, age, and sex of people who may have been exposed. We determined geometric mean incremental lifetime cancer incidence risk estimates for beryllium inhalation for each scenario. The risk estimates were < 10(-6). Predicted air concentrations were well below the current reference concentration derived by the EPA for beryllium sensitization.  (+info)

Characterization of the hinges of the effector loop in the reaction pathway of the activation of ras-proteins. Kinetics of binding of beryllium trifluoride to V29G and I36G mutants of Ha-ras-p21. (6/202)

This work experimentally confirms the pathway of activation of Ha-ras-p21, which was calculated by the method of Targeted Molecular Dynamics (TMD) (Diaz JF, Wroblowski B, Schlitter J, Engelborghs Y, 1997a, Proteins Struct Funct Genet 28:434-451). The process can be studied experimentally by analyzing the binding of BeF3- to the GDP complex of the active fluorescent mutant Y32W (Diaz JF, Sillen A, Engelborghs Y, 1997b, J Biol Chem 227:23138-23143). Two mutants, V29G and 136G, have been constructed at both sides of the effector loop of the active fluorescent mutant. This was done to check the proposed reaction pathway and to provide further insight into the mechanism of the activation of ras proteins. Both mutations accelerate the conformational isomerization with two orders of magnitude, demonstrating convincingly the role of these residues as hinges of the effector loop in one or more of the transitions of the conformational change. These results provide experimental support to the pathway calculated by TMD analysis.  (+info)

Aluminum fluoride inhibition of cabbage phospholipase D by a phosphate-mimicking mechanism. (7/202)

Aluminum fluoride (AlF(4)(-)) inhibited phospholipase D (PLD) purified from cabbage in both PIP(2)-dependent and PIP(2)-independent assays, consistent with its previously observed effect on mammalian PLD. The possibility that AlF(4)(-) may exert this effect through its known phosphate-mimicking property was examined. Inorganic phosphate, as well as two phosphate analogs, beryllium fluoride and orthovanadate, also inhibited cabbage PLD. Enzyme kinetic studies confirmed that PLD followed Hill kinetics, characteristic for allosteric enzymes, with an apparent Hill coefficient (n(app)) of 3.8, indicating positive cooperativity among multiple substrate-binding sites and suggesting possible functional oligomerization of the enzyme. AlF(4)(-) modification of PLD kinetics was consistent with a competitive mode of enzyme inhibition. It is therefore proposed that AlF(4)(-), and other phosphate analogs, inhibits plant PLD by competing with a substrate phosphate group for a substrate-binding site, thereby preventing the formation of an enzyme-phosphatidyl intermediate. This may be a conserved feature of PLD superfamily enzymes.  (+info)

Theoretical studies of metal-phosphate interactions: interaction of Li+, Na+, K+, Be++, Mg++, and Ca++ with H2PO4- and (CH3O)2PO2-: implications for nucleic acid solvation. (8/202)

Model phosphate-metal solvation complexes have been studied by ab-initio self-consistent-field techniques. The complexes studied include (RO)2PO2-(R = H or CH3) with Li+, Na+, K+, Be++, Mg++, Ca++, H2O, and Cl-. The geometries of the complexes were chosen to approximate reasonable model solvation complexes for phosphate groups in a nucleic acid environment. Calculated energies of formation vary as Be++ greater than Mg++ greater than Ca++ greater than Li+ greater than Na+ greater than K+ for all isostructural complexes, consistent with experimental binding trends. These results suggest that site binding of this type can successfully account for the relative specificities of ion binding in polynucleotides and other phosphate-containing molecules.  (+info)

Beryllium - SourceWatchBeryllium - SourceWatch
Beryllium can be harmful if it is inhaled, depending on how much beryllium one inhales and how long the exposure lasts. If beryllium air levels are high enough (greater than 1000 µg/m3), an acute condition can result. This condition resembles pneumonia and is called acute beryllium disease.[6]. Individuals who are sensitive to beryllium can develop an inflammatory reaction in the respiratory system. This is called chronic beryllium disease (CBD), and can occur many years after exposure to higher than normal levels of beryllium (greater than 0.5 µg/m3). This disease can make you feel weak and tired, and can cause difficulty in breathing. It can also result in anorexia, weight loss, and may also lead to right side heart enlargement and heart disease in advanced cases. Some people who are sensitized to beryllium may not have any symptoms. The general population is unlikely to develop acute or chronic beryllium disease because ambient air levels of beryllium are normally very low ...

Beryllium nitrate - WikipediaBeryllium nitrate - Wikipedia
Beryllium nitrate, also known as beryllium dinitrate, is an ionic beryllium salt of nitric acid with the chemical formula Be(NO3)2. Each formula unit is composed of one Be2+ cation and two NO3− anions. Beryllium nitrate is a toxic chemical, like all other beryllium compounds. It is also an irritant in small doses. When burned, it gives off irritating or toxic fumes. However, when massive short-term exposure occurs, acute pneumonitis can set in, but symptoms do not manifest themselves for 3 days. Beryllium nitrate can be prepared by reacting beryllium hydroxide in nitric acid. s NIOSH Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards #0054. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).

Lowering Limits: Changes to Beryllium Exposure Requirements | EC MagLowering Limits: Changes to Beryllium Exposure Requirements | EC Mag
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recently issued a final rule modifying a 40-year-old standard pertaining to exposure to beryllium and beryllium compounds. It contains new requirements for general, construction and shipyard industries. Similar to the recent changes to crystalline silica regulations, the rule is anticipated to save lives and protect workers from serious illnesses. Beryllium and beryllium compounds are lightweight, extremely strong metals used in the aerospace, electrical, energy, telecommunications, medical and defense fields. Beryllium-copper alloys are frequently used for their electrical and thermal conductivity as well as their hardness. Beryllium oxide is used as a component in ceramics for electronics and other electrical equipment because of its heat conductivity, high strength, hardness and electrical insulating properties. Unfortunately, beryllium is highly toxic when inhaled. Inhaling airborne beryllium can result in a lung condition known as ...

Chronic Beryllium Disease (CBD) primarily affects the lungs. CBD may occur among dental laboratory technicians when they inhale dust containing beryllium when working on items such as dental crowns, bridges, and partial denture frameworks made from dental alloys containing beryllium. CBD may develop within months after initial exposure to beryllium or may have a very slow onset and not develop until years after exposure to beryllium has occurred. The amount or length of exposure to beryllium necessary to cause a specific individual to develop CBD is not known, but recent information suggests that even short exposures (weeks or months) to levels of beryllium below OSHAs PEL of 2 μg/m3 averaged over an 8-hour day may lead to CBD in some workers (Source: OSHA). ...

People working or living near beryllium industries have the greatest potential for exposure to beryllium. Lung damage has been observed in people exposed to high levels of beryllium in the air. About 1-15% of all people occupationally-exposed to beryllium in air become sensitive to beryllium and may develop chronic beryllium disease (CBD), an irreversible and sometimes fatal scarring of the lungs. CBD may be completely asymptomatic or begin with coughing, chest pain, shortness of breath, weakness, and/or fatigue. Beryllium has been found in at least 535 of the 1,613 National Priorities List sites identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Occupational exposure to beryllium may cause Chronic Beryllium Disease (CBD), a lung disorder initiated by an electrostatic interaction with the MHC class II human leukocyte antigen (HLA). Molecular studies have found a significant correlation between the electrostatic potential at the HLA-DP surface and disease susceptibility. CBD can therefore be treated by chelation therapy. In this work, we studied the effect of two complexing agents, nitrilotriproprionic acid (NTP) and 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzene disulphonate (Tiron), on the fractionation of beryllium in human serum analysed by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS). We found the average serum beryllium concentration of fourteen non-exposed individuals to be 0.53 (± 0.14) μg l-1, with 21 (± 3)% of the beryllium mass bound to the low molecular weight fraction (LMW), and 79 (± 3)% bound to the high molecular weight fraction (HMW).

Exposure to beryllium can occur when cutting, torching, or welding of the materials listed above. Employees who torch or weld these materials run the greatest risk of exposure. Workers are primarily exposed to beryllium by breathing in dusts, fumes, or mists containing beryllium. Beryllium compounds can also get on the skin, contaminate clothing or food, and be ingested.. Employers must assess employee exposures to beryllium. That includes determining if material being received at the recycling facility contains beryllium. If it does then the employer must determine if dust, fumes, or mists are being created in the processing of the beryllium scrap. This can be done by monitoring employees and areas for in a manner similar to monitoring for other hazardous metals such as lead or cadmium.. Employers must establish and maintain a regulated area if employees are, or can reasonably be expected to be, exposed to airborne beryllium at levels above the listed TWA PEL or STEL in that work area. ...

Beryllium is a crucial metal in the automotive, aviation, nuclear and consumer industries. The unique combination of high rigidity, low density, thermal stability and conductivity makes it highly useful in consumer products such as cell phones and computers. However, beryllium is considered to be the most toxic non-radioactive element, a class A carcinogen, and the cause oflife-threatening chronic beryllium disease. Even with its poor reputation, its use is continued in commercial, industrial, and governmental applications. In contrast, the efforts to understand berylliums fundamental chemistry have been severely neglected. We are interested in developing a suite of chemical chelators which show strong and selective binding towards beryllium. These studies will lead to specific applications such as the detection of beryllium in the environment, protocols to remediate its contamination, and therapies for individuals exposed to its toxicity. This work will focus on both the computational studies ...

Chronic beryllium disease (CBD) appeared to be waning 30 yrs ago 1. In 1980, less than one case per year was reported and the incidence rate per ton of beryllium produced had declined from between five and 10, to less than 0.001. CBD appeared to be heading toward the medical archives as a success story of environmental control in the absence of understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease. However, in 1982, an immunological test performed on lymphocytes recovered from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid demonstrated a marked increased in the number of beryllium-sensitive cells in the lung compared to the blood, strongly suggesting that CBD was a hypersensitivity to beryllium 2. The findings of that initial study were confirmed in larger studies 3 and by different investigators 4, 5. Around 10 yrs later, an immunological test (the beryllium lymphocyte proliferation test (BeLPT)) was initially used in cross-sectional studies and later in the surveillance and screening of current and former ...

USW Blasts Proposal to Cancel Beryllium Protections for Shipyard and Construction Workers - Press Releases
PITTSBURGH, June 23, 2017 - The United Steelworkers (USW) today blasted the Administrations proposal to cancel important protections for shipyard and construction workers exposed to beryllium. Under the proposal OSHA released this morning, employers would no longer have to measure beryllium levels in the workplace or provide medical testing to workers at risk of fatal lung disease. In addition, workers would not have the right to wear protective clothing or to shower at the end of the work shift, making it possible for beryllium to be taken home and exposed to spouses and children. Beryllium is a highly useful metal, but it can cause a crippling and sometimes fatal disease that ultimately robs sufferers of the ability to breathe. OSHA issued new beryllium standards in January covering workers in all industries. Todays proposal eliminates most of the provisions covering the maritime and construction industries. The USW has members in both industries, including workers at the Newport News ...

Preparation and characterization of beryllium doped organic plasma polymer coatings - Digital Library
We report the formation of beryllium doped plasma polymerized coatings derived from a helical resonator deposition apparatus, using diethylberyllium as the organometaric source. These coatings had an appearance not unlike plain plasma polymer and were relatively stable to ambient exposure. The coatings were characterized by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry and X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy. Coating rates approaching 0.7 {mu}m hr{sup {minus}1} were obtained with a beryllium-to-carbon ratio of 1:1.3. There is also a significant oxygen presence in the coating as well which is attributed to oxidation upon exposure of the coating to air. The XPS data show only one peak for beryllium with the preponderance of the XPS data suggesting that the beryllium exists as BeO. Diethylberyllium was found to be inadequate as a source for beryllium doped plasma polymer, due to thermal decomposition and low vapor recovery rates.

PREPARATION OF STANDARD SAMPLES AND DEVELOPMENT OF ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUES FOR CARBON AND NITROGEN IN HIGH-PURITY BERYLLIUM.
Analytical techniques have been developed for the determination of carbon in high-purity beryllium. The method, a modification of the combustion-conductometric technique, permits an increase in the sample size of about four times, thereby achieving a fourfold reduction in the lower limit of useful analytical results. Sensitivity has been demonstrated for carbon contents as low as 25 ppm. The accuracy of a solution distillation technique for determination of nitrogen in high-purity beryllium has been established. A modified micro-Kjeldahl still was employed. Nitrogen contents less than 10 ppm can be accurately determined. Three batches of beryllium weighing roughly 5 pounds each have been prepared. Each batch was attritioned, sized and blended to provide a homogeneous material for analytical standards. These standards, in the form of coarse chips, have the following carbon and nitrogen contents for the 3 standards in parts per million, respectively: carbon, 25, 101, and 120 and nitrogen, 11, 55,

Congress orders beryllium study - The BladeCongress orders beryllium study - The Blade
The question of whether the federal government has been at fault for the deaths and injuries of American beryllium workers will be the subject of a formal investigation by the General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress.. The order to GAO to study the hazards of beryllium, a metal used by the Department of Defense and the Department of Energy because of its light weight and strength in the manufacture of weapons, came from a bipartisan group of eight members of Congress.. Led by Sen. Mike DeWine (R., O.), the ad hoc coalition includes Sens. John McCain (R., Ariz.) and Robert Bennett (R., Utah); and Reps. Marcy Kaptur (D., Toledo), Chris Shays (R., Conn.), Jim Kolbe (R., Ariz.), Tim Holden (D., Pa.), and Paul Kanjorski (D., Pa.).. Mr. DeWine began the call for a GAO investigation in April and has since been organizing and collecting support from colleagues. He said his actions were sparked by a series in The Blade that detailed a decades-long pattern of the U.S. government ...

Diffuse Absorbing Beryllium Coatings Produced by Magnetron Sputtering by David D. Allred and C. M. EgertDiffuse Absorbing Beryllium Coatings Produced by Magnetron Sputtering by David D. Allred and C. M. Egert
Beryllium coatings with varying thicknesses and columnar grain sizes were deposited by low temperature magnetron sputtering and wet chemically etched to enhance diffuse absorption of light. After etching these coatings exhibited a matte black surface finish and low specular reflectance (below 2%) in the IR up to a critical wavelength dependent upon the original grain size of the coating. Extremely thick coatings (350 µm) with original grain sizes of 10 to 12 µm were produced which exhibited specular reflectances below 0.5% up to 50 µm wavelength and a Lambertian BRDF at 10.6 µm averaging 4.3x10-3 ster-1. Scanning electron micrographs are presented for etched and unetched beryllium coatings which showed the etching process produces roughness and porosity over several size scales simultaneously with the maximum size scale limited by the initial coating grain size and thickness. This technique for producing diffuse absorbing baffle materials has great versatility in choice of coating material and

Methods Quantitative area- and breathing-zone-based exposure measurements of airborne beryllium were made between 1953 and 2006 and used by plant personnel to estimate daily weighted average (DWA) exposure concentrations for sampled departments and operations. These DWA measurements were used to create a JEM with 18 exposure metrics, which was linked to the plant cohort consisting of 18 568 unique job, department and year combinations. The exposure metrics ranged from quantitative metrics (annual arithmetic/geometric average DWA exposures, maximum DWA and peak exposures) to descriptive qualitative metrics (chemical beryllium species and physical form) to qualitative assignment of exposure to other risk factors (yes/no). Twelve collapsed job titles with long-term consistent industrial hygiene samples were evaluated using regression analysis for time trends in DWA estimates. ...

LORAIN -- A city councilwoman who fought for more than a year to ban a controversial substance within city limits said she now can rest easier. A representative from Brush Wellman Inc. signed a voluntary agreement with the city on Wednesday, stating that the companys bronze engineering plant in the Lorain would not produce, store or manufacture beryllium.. Beryllium, a compound used as an alloy with other metals in the defense, electronics and automotive industry, has been known to cause chronic and fatal lung disease if its dust is inhaled during its manufacturing process.. State and federal laws regulate the production of beryllium. But the compound earned a reputation locally at the former Brush Beryllium plant on West First Street in Lorain during the 1930s and 40s. Several workers there and residents living near the plant at the time became ill and died, according to a study completed in 1944..

Beryllium dating | Accelerator Mass Spectrometry Laboratory
Beryllium dating is used to estimate the time a rock has been exposed on the surface of the Earth, as well as erosion and sedimentation rates.. Beryllium-10 is another cosmogenic nuclide. Like carbon-14, most of it is formed in the earths upper atmosphere. After formation, beryllium-10 binds to atmospheric dust particles or dissolves in atmospheric water vapor. It is transported to earth surface in rain so consequently it has a much shorter atmospheric residence time than carbon-14. It accumulates on the earths surface and depending upon the sedimentation regime in the local environment, it can be used to date surface accumulation rates, surface erosion rates, or for dating layers within ice cores. Its half-life is 1.39 million years.. Vanishingly small amounts of beryllium-10, carbon-14 and aluminum-26 are also created at the earths surface. The creation occurs within minerals the upper meter of rocks exposed directly to the sky. If rocks are undisturbed for millennia, differences in the ...

In seven patients with chronic beryllium disease (Be) the Be lymphocyte transformation test was positive in 100%, independent of steroid therapy, and was reproducible. The Be macrophage migration inhibition test was only positive in four of seven patients (57%) not on steroids, and was not reproducible. In 72 potentially exposed healthy beryllium workers the lymphocyte transformation test was negative in all subjects. The macrophage test was positive in four of 78 and again the results were not reproducible. The workers with positive results showed no differences in age, type or duration of employment from those with negative results and showed no evidence of disease. In addition, the macrophage test was positive in two of 45 non-exposed control subjects. We also confirmed the above advantages of the lymphocyte transformation technique by using tuberculin antigen (PPD). The PPD lymphocyte transformation test gave positive results in approximately 60% of healthy beryllium workers, but the PPD ...

Pennsylvanias Act 2 Changes - New Cleanup Standards for Aldrin, Beryllium and Cadmium: Manko, Gold, Katcher & Fox
On December 12, 2017, Pennsylvanias Environmental Quality Board (EQB) unanimously approved a final-omitted rulemaking to substantially increase the Act 2 cleanup standards for beryllium, cadmium, and aldrin. The Act 2 cleanup standards are risk-based, meaning they are calculated according to the methods described in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 250 using the best-available toxicological data to be protective of human health under a variety of exposure scenarios. The standards must be periodically revised as newer and more accurate toxicological information becomes available, and the last such revision occurred in August 2016.. This currently proposed revision is intended to correct errors that were discovered in the 2016 cleanup standards for three substances: aldrin, beryllium, and cadmium. The original and corrected cleanup standards are presented in the table below.. ...

Alkaline earth metal - WikipediaAlkaline earth metal - Wikipedia
Beryllium is used mostly for military applications,[55] but there are other uses of beryllium, as well. In electronics, beryllium is used as a p-type dopant in some semiconductors,[56] and beryllium oxide is used as a high-strength electrical insulator and heat conductor.[57] Due to its light weight and other properties, beryllium is also used in mechanics when stiffness, light weight, and dimensional stability are required at wide temperature ranges.[58][59] Magnesium has many uses. It offers advantages over other materials such as aluminium, although this usage has fallen out of favor due to magnesiums flammability.[60] Magnesium is also often alloyed with aluminium or zinc to form materials with more desirable properties than any pure metal.[61] Magnesium has many other uses in industrial applications, such as having a role in the production of iron and steel, and the production of titanium.[62] Calcium also has many uses. One of its uses is as a reducing agent in the separation of other ...

中国科学院水生生物研究所机构知识库(IHB OpenIR): Effects of anti-bursin monoclonal antibody on immunosuppression in the duck (Cherry Valley duck)
To study the immunologic function of bursin, we analyzed the effects of anti-bursin monoclonal antibody (mAb) on the immunosuppression in ducks (Cherry Valley duck) by injecting various doses of the anti-bursin mAb into 13-d duck embryos. After hatch, cell-mediated immune activity and humoral responses were studied using lymphocyte proliferation test, tube agglutination test, and indirect enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay to detect anti-Escherichia coli antibodies and antibodies to Riemerella anatipester, respectively. Simultaneously, relative weights (BW-adjusted) of bursa of Fabricius (BF), spleen, and thymus were determined. Additionally, the morphology of BF, spleen, and thymus was examined at various ages using conventional histology. Follicle morphology of BF was analyzed by image analysis. The results indicated that anti-bursin mAb markedly decreased duck lymphocyte proliferation, the antibody-producing ability to bacteria, as well as the relative BF weight. Moreover, the anti-bursin mAb ...

Some new tests have been introduced, unfortunately there are no published studies demonstating their validity. One test is called an immune tolerance test. It measures T cell proliferation after exposure to select Lyme antigens. There exist very few studies regarding such lymphocyte proliferation tests for diagnosing Lyme. Oddly, the background paper published by the manufacturer, describing the underpinnings of this technology, cites an old Wormser study in the foot notes. The Wormser study using somewhat different methods concluded the test was insensitive but specific ...

DA6NCI - Digital Architecture for Virtual InferenceDA6NCI - Digital Architecture for Virtual Inference
Researchers at International Business Machines Corp. have developed a new approach for simulating molecules on a quantum computer.. The breakthrough, outlined in a research paper to be published in the scientific journal Nature Thursday, uses a technique that could eventually allow quantum computers to solve difficult problems in chemistry and electro-magnetism that cannot be solved by even the most powerful supercomputers today.. In the experiments described in the paper, IBM researchers used a quantum computer to derive the lowest energy state of a molecule of beryllium hydride. Knowing the energy state of a molecule is a key to understanding chemical reactions.. In the case of beryllium hydride, a supercomputer can solve this problem, but the standard techniques for doing so cannot be used for large molecules because the number of variables exceeds the computational power of even these machines.. The IBM researchers created a new algorithm specifically designed to take advantage of the ...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This study aims to summarize the current body of literature on the relationship between various toxic metals exposures (i.e., aluminum, antimony, arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, lead, manganese, and nickel) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), with a focus on potential sex differences in these associations. RECENT FINDINGS: Sex differences in ASD diagnosis and mutagenic effects of toxic exposures indicate that sex differences may play a major part in the causal relationship of any potential associations seen; however, we were only able to find three studies that reported on sex differences in observed associations with toxic metals exposure and ASD ...

Sodium chlorideSodium chloride
Sodium chloride is heavily used, so even relatively minor applications can consume massive quantities. In oil and gas exploration, salt is an important component of drilling fluids in well drilling. It is used to flocculate and increase the density of the drilling fluid to overcome high downwell gas pressures. Whenever a drill hits a salt formation, salt is added to the drilling fluid to saturate the solution and to minimize the dissolution within the salt stratum.[11] Salt is also used to increase the curing of concrete in cemented casings.[9]. In textiles and dyeing, salt is used as a brine rinse to separate organic contaminants, to promote salting out of dyestuff precipitates, and to blend with concentrated dyes to standardize them. One of its main roles is to provide the positive ion charge to promote the absorption of negatively charged ions of dyes.[9]. It is also used in processing aluminium, beryllium, copper, steel and vanadium. In the pulp and paper industry, salt is used to bleach ...

And thats not all Trump has done in his first months in office to dismantle worker protections at the behest of big businesses. He has also delayed implementation of OSHAs newest chemical exposure limits - for silica dust and beryllium. These rules took decades to finalize and will save hundreds of lives a year once they are in effect. But every time they get delayed, workers are left in harms way for no good reason, increasing the chance theyll develop debilitating, often fatal diseases that will devastate their families. Not only is the fate of these rules unknown, new safeguards to address other hazards like heat stress, toxic chemicals, and workplace violence seem exceedingly unlikely from the Trump administration, putting even more lives in danger. Trump has proposed cutting the Department of Labors budget by 21 percent, making it practically impossible for OSHA to carry out its basic tasks like conducting inspections and citing employers for violating worker health and safety ...

Background: Dental technicians (DTs) are exposed to Beryllium (Be) and other substances capable of inducing lung disease. Heme oxygenase -1 (HO-1) play a protective antioxidant role in the lung. The guanine-thymidine (GT) n repeats in the HO-1 promoter determine HO-1 induction level. Short (GT) n repeats (n = ,25; S genotype) is considered as protective since HO-1 is induced more rapidly than in long (GT) n repeats (n = ≥25; L genotype).. Aims To evaluate the correlation of HO-1 polymorphisms to functional and exposure parameters in DTs and the protective role of HO-1 on Be Oxide (BeO) exposed A549 epithelial cells apoptosis.. Methods 65 DTs were followed-up for 2 years by questionnaires,induced sputum (IS) particles size distribution laser analysis (Dapi 2000 Donner Tech and Pulmonary Function Tests.
