Atmospheric chemistry of gas-phase polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons: formation of atmospheric mutagens. [PDF]
Environmental Health Perspectives, 1994 The atmospheric chemistry of the 2- to 4-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), which exist mainly in the gas phase in the atmosphere, is discussed. The dominant loss process for the gas-phase PAH is by reaction with the hydroxyl radical, resulting

Unboxing the molecular modalities of mutagens in cancer
Environmental science and pollution research international, 2021 The etiology of the majority of human cancers is associated with a myriad of environmental causes, including physical, chemical, and biological factors. DNA damage induced by such mutagens is the initial step in the process of carcinogenesis resulting in

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, Volume 63, Issue 8-9, Page 376-388, December 2022., 2022 Abstract The OECD Test Guideline 488 (TG 488) for the Transgenic Rodent Gene Mutation Assay has undergone several revisions to update the recommended design for studying mutations in somatic tissues and male germ cells. The recently revised TG recommends a single sampling time of 28 days following 28 days of exposure (i.e., 28 + 28 days) for all ...

The Excited State Dynamics of a Mutagenic Cytidine Etheno Adduct Investigated by Combining Time-Resolved Spectroscopy and Quantum Mechanical Calculations [PDF]
Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, American Chemical Society,
2022, 13 (1), pp.251-257, 2022 Joint femtosecond fluorescence upconversion experiments and theoretical calculations provide a hitherto unattained degree of characterization and understanding of the mutagenic etheno adduct 3,N4-etheno-2'-deoxycytidine ($\epsilon$dC) excited state relaxation. This endogenously formed lesion is attracting great interest because of its ubiquity in human
