Toxaphene is reported to cause defects in the collagen of fish. Chronic exposure to toxhaphene weakens the backbone of fish by decreasing the amount of collagen and usually increasing the amount of calcium in the bone which results in a more brittle and fragile bone. We investigated the possible direct action of toxaphene on collagen synthesis by exposing vertebral and swim bladder organ cultures obtained from unexposed rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) fingerlings to the same lot of toxaphene found to cause this defect in vivio. Collagen produced by these organ cultures was measured by: (1) total 3H-proline incorporated into the matrix; (2) 3H-proline released during collagenase digestion of acid-precipitated protein; (3) 3H-hydroxyproline extracted from the acid hydrolysate, and (4) tritiated water produced during the hydroxylation of 4-3H-proline. At a relatively high concentration of toxaphene (2.4 mM) these indices of collagen production were reduced, but this was probably caused by a decrease in

The technology provides numerous systems and methods to detect stress in stem cells by measuring potency factors (and markers) and prioritized differentiation factors (and markers). Potency factors can be thought of as brake pedals for differentiation. That is, their expression and activity is associated with toti- or pluri-potency. Differentiation factors can be thought of as accelerator pedals for differentiation. That is, their expression and activity is associated with normal differentiation that occurs when potency-maintaining extracellular growth factors are removed. Under stress conditions, however, potency factors can decrease and differentiation factors can increase even in the presence of potency-maintaining extracellular growth factors. This type of differentiation is referred to as compensatory or prioritized differentiation. That is, under compensatory or prioritized differentiation, stem cells can be induced by stress from a toti- or pluripotent state into a more ...

The human HazChem array includes 16 control genes and 300 environmental toxicity-related genes. In past experiments, the expression levels of these genes were altered in whole genome microarray experiments using VOCs and PAH-treated human cells. In this study, we employed the human HazChem array to determine the gene expression pattern of chemical groups. The chemical groups used in this study were PAHs, POPs, and VOCs. PAHs are one of the most widespread organic pollutants. We used chrysene and phenanthrene as examples of PAHs. POPs are chemical substances that remain in the environment, and bioaccumulate through the food chain. We utilized chlordane and toxaphene as our sample POPs. VOCs are important outdoor air pollutants. They have been shown to cause nervous system disorders through respiration and skin contact, and generally are associated with foul odors. We utilized dichloromethane, ethylbenzene, and trichloroethylene as our sample VOCs. Thus, a total of 7 chemicals were assessed. In ...

Our changing lifestyle and habits are exposing us to various cancer causing agents known as carcinogens. We are constantly exposed to a variety of carcinogens in the food, we eat; in the water, we drink; and in the air, we breathe. Electromagnetic Radiation emitted by man made technological devices like Cell Phone Towers, Cell Phones, Computers and other electrical appliances can cause cancer. Moreover, the modern life has become fast and competitive leading to chronic stress that further enhances the risk of cancer by suppressing immune system of the body.. Pesticides & Insecticides. The food containing residues of pesticides is one of the top three risk factors of cancer. The commonly used pesticides are Carbaryl, Chlordane, Diazinon, Dichlorvos, Dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane (DDT), Lindane, Malathion and Toxaphene. Most of these chemicals used as pesticides have strong carcinogenic effect. The residues of pesticides enter into food articles such as fruits & vegetables. When such a food ...

Dr. Maria (Marisol) Sepúlvedas main area of research is ecotoxicology. Over the last decade, she has conducted extensive research evaluating the sublethal effects of a wide-range of environmental contaminants on the physiology of numerous terrestrial and aquatic species. For instance, she has worked with heavy metals (mercury), complex industrial mixtures (paper mill effluents), herbicides and pesticides (e.g. atrazine, dieldrin, DDT and derivatives, and toxaphene), and industrial pollutants (polychlorinated biphenyls and polyaromatic hydrocarbons). In terms of species, although most of her work has been focused using vertebrates (including marine mammals, birds, and fishes) as animal models, Dr. Sepúlveda has recently began research with aquatic invertebrates (Hyalella and Diporeia). Within the field of ecotoxicology, Dr. Sepúlvedas main area of interest involves studying the potential health effects of environmental contaminants in populations of free-ranging fish and wildlife. ...

The accuracy of emissions modelling can be evaluated by comparing the lifetime risk model for tobacco smoking with epidemiological data for smoking-related mortality. An early application of this model to tobacco smoke predicted an excess risk of 1.6×10−2 for a daily consumption of 20 cigarettes measured with the ISO protocol.26 This differed from the estimated excess cancer risk of 7.9×10−2 derived from mortality data for smokers in the USA in 1995.14 Applying the same model to the Centers for Disease Control tobacco smoke data set measured with the HCI protocol weighted by current OEHHA unit risk values doubles the estimated risk to 3.3×10−2 averaged over 48 cigarette products (SD 3.5×10−3) for the same daily consumption rate. This closer agreement is largely due to the use of the HCI machine smoking protocol for emissions, suggesting that these independent estimates reflect the same fundamental causes of mortality.. Using emissions can underestimate and overestimate risk. ...

Environmental contaminants are suspected to be involved in the epidemic incidence of metabolic disorders, food ingestion being a primarily route of exposure. We hypothesized that life-long consumption of a high-fat diet that contains low doses of pollutants will aggravate metabolic disorders induced by obesity itself. Mice were challenged from preconception throughout life with a high-fat diet containing pollutants commonly present in food (2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, polychlorinated biphenyl 153, diethylhexyl phthalate, and bisphenol A), added at low doses in the tolerable daily intake range. We measured several blood parameters, glucose and insulin tolerance, hepatic lipid accumulation, and gene expression in adult mice. Pollutant-exposed mice exhibited significant sex-dependent metabolic disorders in the absence of toxicity and weight gain. In males, pollutants increased the expression of hepatic genes (from 36 to 88%) encoding proteins related to cholesterol biosynthesis and decreased (40%)

Abstract: Together with an increase in the total activity of pyruvate kinase, alterations in the isoenzyme spectrum were observed in hepatocarcinogenesis caused by treatment of rats with diethylinitrosamine. The alterations might be divided into two steps: initial, reversible changes and changes immediately related to development of the blastomatous process. The total activity of pyruvate kinase was gradually increased with appearance of hyperplastic symptoms as well as of primary tumoral foci in liver tissue. The M2-type of pyruvate kinase tended to exhibit activation. In primary hepatomas the L-type of the enzyme was decreased and activity of the M2-type was increased ...

New data resulting from an EFSA call for data led to a considerable refinement of exposure estimates compared to 2006. For infants and toddlers (aged 6 months-3 years) average exposure from the diet is estimated to amount to 375 nanograms per kilogram of body weight per day (ng/kg bw/day) whereas for the population above 18 years of age (including women of child-bearing age) the figure is up to 132 ng/kg bw/day. By comparison, these estimates are less than 1% of the current Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) for BPA (0.05 milligrams/kg bw/day) established by EFSA in 2006.. For all population groups above three years of age thermal paper was the second most important source of BPA after the diet (potentially accounting for up to 15% of total exposure in some population groups).. Among other key findings, scientists found dietary exposure to BPA to be the highest among children aged three to ten (explainable by their higher food consumption on a body weight basis). Canned food and non-canned meat and ...

Four types of dust samples and nine categories of locally produced staple foods were collected from a mega e-waste recycling industrial park and its surrounding regions, and simultaneously analyzed for short-chain and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (CPs) to estimate dust and dietary exposure and their combined effects on occupational workers and local residents. All samples related to e-waste activities contained considerably high concentrations of CPs. The highest dust concentration was found in e-waste workshops. CPs were highly accumulated in local plant and animal origin foods, most markedly in fish, vegetables, and rice. The main contribution to CP intake under a median exposure scenario was from the diet, and vegetables, fish, and rice were the three largest dietary intake sources. Only the combined dust and food exposure from the present study has approached or even exceeded the highest tolerable daily intake (TDI) set up by the International Program on Chemical Safety (IPCS). ...

Previously, we tried to predict 90th percentile evacuation time $T{90}$ determined from ABM simulation using 90th percentile free flow clearance time $T90f$. Bigger the city, greater we can expect $T90f$ to be since it would take longer to traverse. Plotting $T90f$ vs $T90$ produces the figure below. $T90f$ under predicts $T90$ with a poor fit ($R=0.31$) but it is clear that $T90$ is never less than $T90f$! Since that did not work out too well, I attempt to predict $T90$ using the knowledge of how the population is distributed distance $D$ from the exit.

Isoenzyme spectra of lactate and malate dehydrogenases were studied by means of polyacrylamide gel disc electrophoresis in heart muscle and liver tissue of rabbits with thyreoidin toxicosis. Under conditions of thyreotoxicosis in liver tissue content of isoenzymes LDH4 and LDH5, which slowly moved to anode, was decreased; in heart muscle content of LDH2-LDH5 was also decreased. In liver tissue the relative predominance of LDH1-LDH2 was observed, in heart muscle of LDH1. Activity and isoenzyme pattern of MDH were shown to be unaltered in homogenates of the tissues in thyreotoxicosis. An aerobisation of the LDH isoenzyme spectrum together with normal content of MDH suggested that intensive aerobic oxidation of substrates of glycolytic pathway occurred in heart muscle and liver tissue of rabbits with thyreoidin toxicosis ...

Warfighters rely on an array of resources during their deployments, but the availability of safe, uncontaminated water and nutriments is paramount. Despite efforts by the military to supply troops with safe water and food, operations outside the Continental U.S. (CONUS) require sourcing of these provisions either locally or from nearby regional countries (See References 1 and 2 below). DoD-approved foreign facilities can pose safety risks due to quality control deficiencies and less robust food safety systems (See References 3 (as cited in 1) and 4). Prolonged expeditionary operations can lead to necessarily unsafe practices when warfighters must scavenge for water and foodstuffs from the environment. Besides unintentional or naturally occurring contamination, detecting the purposeful fouling of food or water by adversaries further underscores the need for the technology in this topic.. Currently, field detection of chemicals and pathogens in food and water is accomplished using devices or kits ...

Homogenized tissue in methanol is repeatedly extracted by centrifugation before adding a 10 percent solution of sodium chloride to the extract and the pH adjusted to below 6.0. Partitioning is then done by adding hexane to the aqueous extract before discarding the organic layer. The aqueous layer is adjusted to pH 9.0 plus or minus 0.4 prior to adding 2,1 chloroform,hexane (v,v) and the mixture shaken. This step is repeated before evaporating the combined organic layer to dryness. The residue is reconstituted in methanol and 0.05 M dibutyl ammonium phosphate added prior to further centrifugation. The extract is then pressed through a 0.22 micrometer acrodisc filter ready for analysis by HPLC,ion pairing with a UV,Vis detector. An Adsorbosphere Phenyl analytical column is used. ...
