Determination of chlorinated fatty acids using SPE, XSD and GC/MS [PDF]
Chlorinated fatty acids (ClFAs) account for a considerable portion of the extractable, organically bound chlorine (EOCl) in aquatic animals. Because of analytical difficulties little is as of yet known about their behaviour in organisms.

Western mosquitofish as a bioindicator of exposure to organochlorine compounds
The evaluation of the alochthonous and cosmopolitan mosquitofish species Gambusia affinis suitability as a bioindicator species and the induction of its liver cytochrome P450-dependent mixed function oxygenase (MFO), measured as the 7-ethoxyresorfin-O-deethylase (EROD) activity, as well as changes in DNA integrity, measured by the Fast Micromethod, for

Glucocorticoids modulate drug transporter function in human fetal brain endothelial cells
Abstract figure legend P‐glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein are the most prominent drug transporters at the fetal blood–brain barrier. We isolated primary human fetal brain endothelial cells from early and mid‐gestation cerebral microvessels and exposed them to glucocorticoids cortisol and dexamethasone in vitro.

ABSTRACT The association between pesticide exposure and Parkinson's disease (PD) is substantial, but heterogeneity in methodology and lack of categorization according to the type of exposure and pesticide classes in previous meta‐analyses impair the interpretation of data. This study aims to update evidence of the association between pesticide exposure

Prenatal exposure to organochlorine compounds and lung function during childhood
Introduction: Prenatal exposure to organochlorine compounds (OCs) can increase the risk of reported respiratory symptoms in children. It remains unclear whether these compounds can also impact on lung function.

As the incidence of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) rises, prenatal exposure to agricultural pesticides may represent an important risk factor. Here, geographic information system‐based measures of farmland proximity at birth were used as a proxy for early‐life pesticide exposure in France, a major pesticide consumer.

Atmospheric Aerosol Neurotoxicity and Parkinson's Disease: Mechanisms and Perspectives
Schematic overview of the pathways and pathological mechanisms connecting atmospheric aerosol exposure to PD. Atmospheric aerosols, including PM2.5 and nanometer/ultrafine particles loaded with metal particles, persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dioxins, enter the body predominantly via pulmonary ...

Computational study on organochlorine insecticides extraction using ionic liquids
Insecticides pose hazardous environmental effects and can enter the food chain and contaminate water resources. Ionic liquids (ILs) have recently drawn much interest as environmentally friendly solvents and have been an efficient choice for extracting ...
