Persistent organochlorine pollutants (POP) may affect both the female and male reproductive system in animals as well as in humans. Blood samples were collected from pregnant women and their partners from Greenland, Warsaw and Kharkiv, and from a cohort of
Recent data suggest that prenatal exposure to p,p'-DDE may reduce height and increase body mass index (BMI) in childhood, thus potentially raising the risk of adult health problems. The association between prenatal DDE exposure and growth was evaluated in 788
This study examined the potential sources of persistent halogenated compounds (PHCs), including organochlorine pesticides, mainly DDXs (sum of o,p'- and p,p'-DDT, -DDD, and -DDE and p,p'-DDMU) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers, to typical aquaculture environments of South China, determined the relative
Auxiliary covariate data are often collected in biomedical studies when the primary exposure variable is only assessed on a subset of the study subjects. In this study, we investigate a semiparametric-estimated likelihood estimation for the generalized linear mixed models (GLMM)
Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organochlorine compounds bioaccumulating in human tissues. Body burden of organochlorines may be influenced by individual characteristics such as age, weight variations, breastfeeding, dietary habits and place of residence. To assess the current
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
