An example of a numerical method application for minimum detectable annual dose calculation that can be guaranteed by the operating monitoring programs for plutonium and…
This study assessed whether pesticide exposure was associated with Parkinson’s disease in a population-based, case control study in British Columbia, Canada. Patients reimbursed for anti-parkinsonian…
This cross-sectional study measured arsenic (As) concentrations in scalp hair from children in 2 age groups exposed to polluted groundwater in Pakistan. As concentrations in…
In the present study, the authors observed small increased risks of pre-term delivery (PTD) for chlorinated surface water, chlorinated groundwater, chloraminated water, and all other…
Trace elements contained in coal escape with flue gas from energy sources into the air or move towards other components of the environment with byproducts…
Industrialised societies which continue to use fossil fuel energy sources are considering adopting C capture and storage (CCS) technology to meet C emission reduction targets.…
Owing to fluctuations in pollutant concentration over time, measurement and averaging time has a key effect on the value obtained. Long-term concentrations and long-term exposure…
The present invention relates to a smoke and carbon monoxide alarm system including a smoke and carbon monoxide alarm device and a base unit connected…
The distribution and translocation of mercury (Hg) was studied in the Paglia River ecosystem, located downstream from the inactive Abbadia San Salvatore mine (ASSM). The…
Chromium is one of the heavy metals that is found in industrial effluents and is very toxic to humans and environment. In this work the…
Benzene is a carcinogenic compound used in industrial manufacturing and a common environmental pollutant mostly derived from vehicle emissions and cigarette smoke. Benzene exposure is…
Recent changes in regulatory restrictions and social opposition to animal toxicology experiments have driven the need for reliable in vitro tests for predicting the skin…
Several studies have suggested that interleukin (IL)-8 can serve as a biomarker for discrimination of skin sensitisers from nonsensitisers. The authors established a stable THP-1-derived…
This aim of this study is to elucidate whether or not BaP cause AhR activation and subsequent oxidative stress leading to IL-8 production in normal…
N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET) is an insect repellent used worldwide, and a common micropollutant in aquatic environments. However, few studies have addressed the molecular mechanism of DEET…
The apparatus consists of an absorption tower, a slurry circulating tank outside the absorption tower and connected with the bottom of the absorption tower, a…
Modern chemical industrial processes are becoming more and more integrated and consist of multiple interconnected nonlinear process units. These strong interactions profoundly complicate a system’s…
The previously valid General Limit Value for Particulate Matter derived by the Senate Commission for the Investigation of Health Hazards of Chemical Compounds in the…
This paper is to evaluate the safety level of thifensulfuron Me by analysing its residue after applied to the wheat field. Oscillation extension, solid-phase extension…
In order to evaluate ecological safety of transgenic insect-resistance hybrid poplar 741, the diversity of soil microflora and Bt toxin protein were systematically studied in…
