As an endocrine disruptor, DEHP can interfere with normal hormonal functions, posing substantial health risks to organisms. Given the critical role of the liver in DEHP metabolism, we investigated potential liver damage in offspring induced by prenatal exposure to low doses of DEHP in Sprague ...
(2) examine the impact of contact parameters (physical stress and duration), product properties (texture and hardness), and physicochemical conditions of the target chemicals on the particle release potentiality; and (3) assess the daily particle exposure doses (derived from the target plasticizers)...
teddy bears, and other basic products.8 Using products that contain ZnO NPs increases the risk of exposure.9 Given the wide-ranging applications for nanotechnol ogy and the use of nanoproducts, the potential health risks of ZnO NPs, especially to children, require thorough eva luation....
These results suggest that an altered iron status due to a high-iron diet can affect the physiological response to fractionated low doses of ionizing radiation by altering antioxidant status. Although it was not possible here to measure iron levels in the ocular tissues, studies in mice have ...
(ambient plus 40, 60, or 80 nmol mol–1) during a growing season. To evaluate potential O3risks for ecological stoichiometry in these urban species, the main nutrients and their ratios were evaluated in both woody shoot tissues (stem and branches) and leaves. These species hold nutritional ...
Glucagon secreted by pancreatic α-cells has been shown to be substantially impaired by even low doses of BPA expo- sure [128–130]. Additionally, the ability of BPA to disrupt the biosynthesis and secretion of insulin in β cells has been confirmed by various animal studies [131, 132]. ...
Sample preparation: As it was not possible to transfer the amount of 4 mg airport particle matter from the collection flasks to vials for microwave-assisted acid digestion, a volume of 1 mL of 25% (v/v) nitric acid was directly added to the flasks for acid extraction. Additionally, ...
Adverse health effects of a single substance are unlikely to occur in case the HQ is below 1; however, the health risk caused by the substance is considerable in case the ratio is higher than 1. However, this approach evaluates the risks only on a substance-by-substance basis and does not...
A dose of 20 mg/kg BPA/day significantly reduced the number of implantations in rats46. These doses are, however, much higher than the reported real exposition doses. Here, and by using the officially maximal allowed BPA dose, we did not observe any effect in the implantation numbers ...
