Quantitative Assessment of Organic and Inorganic Contaminants in Charcoal
Thirty-one batches of commercial charcoal from various regions of Poland and Germany were tested for the presence of 20 toxic elements and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Elements that are toxic

Are there thresholds for carcinogens carcinogenicity?
魚や肉などの焼けこげに含まれている2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f ] quinoxaline(MeIQx)のラット肝臓における低用量発がん性を中期発がん性試験法で検討した.その結果,MeIQx?DNA 付加体形成は微量からみられ,より高い用量で8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyquanosine 形成,lacI 遺伝子変異,イニシエーション活性等が誘発された.また,肝臓の前腫瘍性病変であるglutahione S-transferase placental(GST-P)陽性細胞巣は,さらにより高い用量で誘発された.N- ニトロソ化合物であるN-nitrosodiethylamine やN-nitrosodimethylamine でもGST-P ...

Supervised mutational signatures for obesity and other tissue-specific etiological factors in cancer
Determining the etiologic basis of the mutations that are responsible for cancer is one of the fundamental challenges in modern cancer research. Different mutational processes induce different types of DNA mutations, providing ‘mutational signatures ...

Mycotoxins are metabolites of molds considered to be a major risk factor affecting human and animal health. It is estimated that 25% of the world’s crop production is contaminated with mycotoxins. Mold contamination occurs extensively in fields and is particularly severe in tropical countries.

Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

Health effects of exposure to radon: implications of the radon bed mattress incident in Korea [PDF]
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive material formed by the slow decay of uranium and thorium found in the earth’s crust or construction materials. Internal exposure to radon accounts for about half of the natural background radiation dose to which

Active Corrosion Protection of Sintered AA7075 Aluminum Alloy via Mn Powder Addition
AA7075 containing Mn‐rich particles is fabricated via spark plasma sintering using AA7075 and Mn powders. Corrosion resistance is evaluated through dip‐and‐dry tests using 0.1 M NaCl (pH 6.0), and mass loss decreases with increasing Mn addition. Mn‐rich particles function as a source of Mn ions, and formation of Mn‐accumulation films on Cu‐containing ...
