The effect of 1000 ppm potassium perchlorate (KClO4), 1000 ppm potassium iodide (KI) or 1000 ppm propylthiouracil (PTU) in the diet on the development of thyroid tumors was studied histologically and biochemically in Wistar rats given a single ip injection

The present study investigates the efficacy of various oxidizing treatments (ClO(-), ClO(2), KMnO(4), O(3), O(3)/H(2)O(2), O(3)/activated carbon) to remove from waters sodium dodecylbenzenesulphonate (SDBS), considered as model surfactant. Results obtained show that the use of ClO(-) and ClO(2) does not

The perchlorate discharge assay (PDA) is potentially of high diagnostic value to distinguish between direct and indirect thyroid toxicity mechanisms, provided that standard treatment times are established and positive controls yield reproducible results. Therefore the PDA was evaluated after 2

Amiodarone perturbs thyroid function, causing overt hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism in 15% of patients. Changes in thyroid function are likely due, at least in part, to amiodarone and/or desethylamiodarone (DEA) concentration into the thyroid gland, but mechanisms whereby the drug uptake

Amphibians are sensitive to a great variety of agrochemicals. Nitrate compounds are commonly applied as fertilizers, whereas perchlorate salts occur as by-products of the military industry and in some nitrate fertilizers. Both compounds are highly soluble and can easily diffuse
