During the last decade, there has been clear progress in using threshold in risk assessment but its acceptance by scientists is still under debate. Contrary to indirect DNA-damaging agents, DNA-reactive agents have been assumed to have a non-threshold mode of

The present paper reports the graft copolymerization of 2-acrylamidoglycolic acid onto chitosan by using potassium bromate/silver nitrate as an efficient redox initiator in an inert atmosphere. The effect of reaction conditions on grafting parameters i.e. grafting ratio, efficiency, conversion, add

The primary cilium is an immotile sensory and signaling organelle found on the majority of mammalian cell types. Of the multitude of roles that the primary cilium performs, perhaps some of the most important include maintenance of differentiation, quiescence, and

Potassium bromate (KBrO3) is an oxidizing agent that has been used as a food additive, mainly in the bread-making process. Although adverse effects are not evident in animals fed bread-based diets made from flour treated with KBrO3, the agent is

Rutin, a polyphenolic flavonoid, was investigated for its protective effects against the KBrO(3) induced renal injuries in rat. Group I was control (untreated), group II was given saline 0.5 ml/kg bw (0.9% NaCl), group III was administered KBrO(3) (20 mg/kg
