Effect of TBT on Ruditapes decussatus juveniles
The effects of sublethal concentrations of tributyltin (TBT) on growth of juvenile clams Ruditapes decussatus were determined during exposure to TBT concentrations of 50, 100 and 250 ng l(-1) (as Sn) for a period up to two years. Length and weight of clams increased continuously in all treatments throughout the experimental period, and, overall, rates ...

New canopy legume species highlight liana gap sampling across Amazonian and Atlantic rain forests
Abstract Lianas are a key component of the Neotropical flora, accounting for 10% of angiosperm richness and playing important ecological roles. However, the canopy preference of some species often leads to their underrepresentation in herbarium collections, thereby exacerbating Linnaean, Darwinian, and Wallacean shortfalls. The papilionoid legume genus

Hepatoxicity Induced from Exposure of Male Rats to Low Doses of Tributyltin Chloride
Tributyltin (TBT) is a contaminant found all over the world. It is a member of the organotin class, which includes several widely disseminated, very hazardous compounds that have been linked to endocrine disruption.

What is a “Technical Regulation” in the TBT Agreement? [PDF]
One important issue arising from EC–Seal Products is what constitutes a technical regulation in the TBT Agreement. This article argues that the Appellate Body's analytical approach to this issue has led to an arbitrary conclusion in EC–Seal Products. The article further examines to what extent PPMs, especially Non–product–related PPMs, are covered by ...

Abstract Introduction Insulin autoantibodies (IAA) are key predictors of type 1 diabetes, particularly in young children. Micro‐radiobinding assays (RBA) are the gold standard for IAA measurement but have limitations. We assessed whether a luciferase immunoprecipitation system (LIPS) assay improved diabetes risk assessment.

On Timoshenko’s Beams Coefficient of Sensibility to Shear Effect
Classical beams theory usually neglect shear contribution to deformation. Timoshenko´s Beam Theory (TBT) corrects this negligence. This work is a step in the research to check accuracy of TBT in piezoactuators and in nano beams, particularly in Carbon ...

This study assesses the relative importance of water and sediments as vectors of TBT uptake in the sediment-dwelling suspension feeder, Ruditapes decussatus. Accumulation of TBT was determined in R. decussatus exposed for 60 days to moderately high but environmentally realistic levels of TBT in water (100 ng Snl(-1)) and sediments (0.8 microg Sn g(-1 ...

Expect the unexpected: fulminant myocardial cytotoxic Injury from Trabectedin
Background Trabectedin (Tbt) is an alkylating agent prescribed for soft tissue sarcomas after treatment failure of first line agents. While cardiomyopathy can occur with Tbt treatment after anthracycline exposure, Tbt-induced fulminant myocardial ...

In Vivo Evaluation of The Hepatotoxic Disorders of Tributyltin Low Doses in Male Rats
Tributyltin (TBT) has been used widely for over 60 years as a pesticidal, preservation, rodent repellent, water-repellant coating, corrosion inhibitor, flame-resistant polyester, and household product.
