The inhibition of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevesiae) metabolism by fungicidal chemicals was investigated. Glucose- or ethanol-dependent yeast respiration was measured with an oxygen electrode, and manometric determination of carbon dioxide release was used to measure fermentation. Both respiration and fermentation were
Changes in the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase system were investigated in HepG2 cells treated for 24 h with 1.25, 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 microg/ml of carbendazim (MBC) and n-butylisocyanate (BIC), the principal benomyl metabolites. The results show that n-butylisocyanate leads

Tolbutamide (TOLB), a widely used hypoglycemic agent in the therapy of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, has been reported to be teratogenic and/or embryotoxic in several animal species and humans. It has been proposed that the teratogenic effects of TOLB are linked

Isocyanates may cause contact dermatitis and respiratory sensitization leading to asthma. Dermal exposure to aliphatic isocyanates in auto body shops is very common. However, little is known about the effectiveness of available commercial products used for decontaminating aliphatic polyisocyanates. This

The effects of the fungicide benomyl and its breakdown products, carbendazim and butyl isocyanate, were examined on canine tracheal epithelial tissue in primary culture. Changes in ciliary frequencies were monitored with an optical spectrum analysis system. Serial dilutions of the
