Risk assessment of replacing synthetic preservatives with natural ingredients. [PDF]

open access: yesEFSA J
Abstract The present work, developed within the EU‐FORA fellowship programme, assessed the risk assessment of vegetable by‐product extracts as natural alternatives to synthetic preservatives in food formulations. Extracts were obtained from onion peel (Allium cepa L.), zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.) and kale (Brassica oleracea L. var.

Automated Analysis of Pollutants in Wastewater Using Atmospheric Pressure Gas Chromatography-Tandem Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer With Robotic Autosampler and Solid Phase Micro Extraction. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Sep Sci
ABSTRACT The analysis of organic pollutants using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometer (GC‐MS) with electron impact (EI) ionization and liquid–liquid or solid‐phase extraction (LLE or SPE) often suffer from a limited selectivity and arduous sample preparation.

Persistent Beetroot Colored Urine in a Three-Year-Old Child: A Case Report. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
Clinically manifest porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) is rare in children. Of ~1400 cases diagnosed at Porphyria Center Sweden, only five were children, all with pathogenic UROD variants and HFE homozygous. Diagnosis is often delayed; in our case, beetroot‐red urine prompted suspicion despite the absence of cutaneous symptoms.

The decrease in uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase activity induced by ethanol predisposes rats to the development of porphyria and accelerates xenobiotic-triggered porphyria, regardless of hepatic damage

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2002
We evaluated the porphyrinogenic ability of ethanol (20% in drinking water) per se, its effect on the development of sporadic porphyria cutanea tarda induced by hexachlorobenzene in female Wistar rats (170-190 g, N = 8/group), and the relationship with ...

Angiotensin II type 1 receptor is involved in hypertension and vascular alterations caused by environmental toxicant hexachlorobenzene

open access: yesToxicology Reports, 2021
Environmental hexachlorobenzene (HCB) increases blood pressure (BP) in female rats, causing alterations in arterial structure and function. Here we study the role of Angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) in HCB-induced hypertension through the use of AT1 ...
