Teratogenesis, carcinogenesis, and mutagenesis, 9(6), 349-357 (1989-01-01)
Tetrachloroethane (TTCE), pentachloroethane (PCE), and hexachloroethane (HCE) were tested in diploid strain (D7) of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae in suspension test with and without mammalian metabolic activation (S9). TTCE, PCE, and HCE gave positive results on cells harvested from logarithmic
Fundamental and applied toxicology : official journal of the Society of Toxicology, 31(2), 229-242 (1996-06-01)
A physiologically based toxicokinetic model was developed to describe dermal absorption of waterborne organic chemicals by fish. The skin was modeled as a discrete compartment into which compounds diffuse as a function of chemical permeability and the concentration gradient. The
Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 110(3), 374-389 (1991-09-15)
A physiologically based toxicokinetic model for fish was used to simulate the uptake and disposition of three waterborne chloroethanes in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Trout were exposed to 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane, pentachloroethane, and hexachloroethane in fish respirometer-metabolism chambers to assess the kinetics
Comparative biochemistry and physiology. A, Comparative physiology, 101(1), 47-51 (1992-01-01)
1. A gas equilibration method for the determination of in vitro chemical partition coefficients in mammals was adapted for use with fish. 2. In vitro blood: water and tissue: blood partition coefficients were determined for three chlorinated ethanes in rainbow
Under anaerobic conditions, cytochromes P450 can reductively dehalogenate heavily halogenated hydrocarbons, such as one- and two-carbon organic solvents. This catalytic capacity has drawn attention to the potential use of engineered forms of P450s in the remediation of contaminated deep subsurface
