To determine the prevalence of proteinuira and enzymuria among a cohort of subjects exposed to hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD) in their homes and to determine whether there was a change in observed effects when exposure ceased. Residents underwent a health check, which
Gene expression of regucalcin (Rgn), a calcium-binding protein, was investigated in kidney of male Wistar rats treated with proximal tubule segment-specific nephrotoxicants, namely hexachloro-1:3-butadiene (HCBD), specific for S(3) segment (pars recta) and potassium dichromate (chromate) specific for S(1)-S(2) segments (pars

The present research investigates the occurrence of hyaline droplet (HD) accumulation related to age, dose and time after treatment in male Wistar rats given a single i.p. injection of hexachloro-1:3-butadiene (HCBD). In the study on age, rats from 1 to
The biodegradation of chlorinated organics in vadose zone soils is challenging owing to the presence of oxygen, which inhibits reductive dehalogenation reactions and consequently the growth of dehalorespiring microbes. In addition, the hydraulic conductivity of vadose zone soils is typically

Renal tissue biomarkers (glutamine synthetase and p-aminohippuric acid uptake) were studied in male and female rats after treatment with hexachloro-1,3-butadiene. Reduced glutathione content also was also determined in liver and kidney. Histopathological examination (light microscopy) was then performed. The aim
