The objective of the present study was to investigate if arsenate V exposure results in glutathione efflux from human erythrocytes. The changes in intracellular and extracellular nonprotein sulfhydryl and glutathione levels were determined in arsenate (V) exposed erythrocytes. Presence of
Inorganic arsenic is a known human carcinogen, inducing tumors of the skin, urinary bladder and lung. It is metabolized to organic methylated arsenicals. 2,3-Dimercaptopropane-1-sulfonic acid (DMPS), a chelating agent, is capable of reducing pentavalent arsenicals to the trivalent state and

The embryonic stem cell test (EST) is a validated in vitro embryotoxicity test; however, as the inhibition of cardiac differentiation alone is used as a differentiation endpoint in the EST, it may not be a useful test to screen embryotoxic
