The extent to which biological systems interact in fish from multi-contaminant areas needs to be understood for full interpretation of monitoring data. This study investigates the interaction between two biomarkers, ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) activity and plasma vitellogenin (VTG) in the European
Journal of chromatography. A, 1258, 152-160 (2012-09-04)
Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is attributed many advantages over high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Next to the fact that SFC is greener than HPLC, which is especially important for preparative separations, SFC is claimed to be able to deliver faster
This work presents a novel approach for the simultaneous ultratrace determination of benzo[ a]pyrene and dibenzo[ a,h]anthracene, the two most carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), in a very interfering environment, combining the recently discovered ability of the nylon membrane to
Toxicology in vitro : an international journal published in association with BIBRA, 23(5), 763-771 (2009-04-14)
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)--environmental carcinogens--are metabolized by CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 enzymes to oxy-derivatives, which are able to bind to DNA and initiate carcinogenesis. PAHs induce CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 activity, which increases the risk of development of carcinogenesis. Isothiocyanates (ITCs), naturally
Benz[a]anthracene (BA), dibenz[a,h]anthracene (DBA) and dibenzo[a,i]pyrene (DBP) are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) found in incomplete combustion products of fossil fuels, coal tar, and other organic materials. Workers in related industries may be exposed to these chemicals by inhalation. The information
