Molecular biomarkers and toxic consequences of impact by organic pollution in aquatic organisms [PDF]
, 1994 Organic contaminants are readily bioaccumulated by aquatic organisms. Exposure to and toxic effects of contaminants can be measured in terms of the biochemical responses of the organisms (i.e. molecular biomarkers).

Genotoxicity and Cytotoxicity Exerted by Pesticides in Different Biotic Matrices-An Overview of More Than a Decade of Experimental Evaluation [PDF]
, 2014 Agrochemicals represent one of the most important sources of environmental pollution. Although attempts to reduce agrochemical use through organic agricultural practices and the use of other technologies to control pests continue, the problem is still

Toxicology of the respiratory system
Folia Pharmacologica Japonica, 2009 呼吸器は，空気から酸素を取り入れ血液から二酸化炭素を放出するガス交換を行うための器官である．空気中に存在す化学物質は呼吸を通して体内に入るため，呼吸器はこれらの化学物質に最初に接触しその影響を最も受けやすい器官である．このため，大気汚染物質による健康障害では呼吸器が標的器官となることが多い．医薬品の分野では，吸入以外の経路でも抗癌剤等による薬剤性肺障害の報告があり，本誌でも詳しい総説がある（1）．また，近年は経鼻投与など経気道的に投与する薬剤の実用化が進んでおり，医薬品の開発に際して鼻腔などの気道を含む呼吸器への直接的な接触による副作用が課題になってきている．本稿では，鼻腔等の気道を中心として，呼吸器の構造と機能，呼吸器毒性の検査法，薬剤等による呼吸器毒性について概説する．
