A byproduct of drinking water disinfection, bromochloroacetic acid (BCA), acts as a reproductive toxicant in rats. To determine if BCA produces similar reproductive toxicity in mice, juvenile and adult C57BL/6 males were exposed to 0, 8, 24, 72 or 216
The lower limit of detection for low molecular weight polar and ionic analytes using electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) is often severely compromised by an intense background that obscures ions of trace components in solution. Recently, a new technique, referred to

A capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) system for determining haloacetic acids in water was optimized with indirect photometric detection. Two different carrier electrolytes, potassium hydrogenphthalate and sodium 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate, were evaluated in terms of sensitivity and two different electroosmotic flow modifiers, tetradecyltrimethylammonium

The chloro- and bromohaloacetates are drinking water disinfection by-products and rodent carcinogens. Chloro-bromo dihaloacetates are also mechanism-based inhibitors of glutathione S-transferase-zeta (GSTZ1-1). We studied the stereospecific toxicokinetics and in vitro metabolism of two chiral dihaloacetates in male F344 rats: (-),(+)-bromochloroacetate

Disubstituted haloacid by-products of drinking water disinfection such as dibromoacetic acid and dichloroacetic acid have been shown to perturb spermatogenesis and fertility in adult male rats. In the present study we sought to establish whether equimolar exposure to bromochloroacetic acid
