Chemical activity profiling reveals how exposure to drugs or dietary compounds alters gut microbial biotransformation capacity

AbstractThe gut microbiome catalyzes biotransformation reactions that influence intestinal absorption as a basis of microbiome-host interactions. A better understanding of microbiota biotransformation capacity, and its alteration in dysregulated states, would enable the prediction of individual responses to drugs and toxins and improve safety ...

Role of chemical species and exposure characteristics in cancer among persons occupationally exposed to chromium compounds.

Scandinavian journal of work, environment & health, 1994
Epidemiologic studies on chromate workers are considered with special reference to the valency of chromium compounds, carcinogenic potency, and water solubility. It is assumed that all hexavalent chromium compounds are carcinogenic to humans when inhaled but that there is no evidence that trivalent compounds are carcinogenic.

[Hazard criteria and the evaluation of the overall toxic and specific effects of chemical compound exposure].

Voprosy pitaniia, 1978
A differentiated establishment of a chronic action threshold for a population and especially of a subthreshold is a basic hygienic parameter necessary for substantiating safe concentrations of chemical substances. Investigations aimed at detecting the penetration of substances into the cells, their intracellular distribution and ascertaining the extent
