The pharmacokinetics of tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TRCP, 20 mg/kg, iv) were investigated in awake male and female and anesthetized male Fischer 344 (F344) rats by conventional (CONV) sampling/detection methods (blood withdrawal with sample workup and analysis for TRCP). TRCP pharmacokinetics were

Being a typical micropollutant, tris-(2-chloroethyl)-phosphate (TCEP) is often found in aquatic environments. However, the potential effects of TCEP at environmental concentrations on apoptotic mechanisms are mostly unknown. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate the apoptotic regulatory protein
