MicrowaveBone cellRANKsRANKLOPGEffects of pre/postnatal 2.45 GHz continuous wave (CW), Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) Microwave (MW) irradiation on bone have yet to be well defined. The present study used biochemical and histological methods to investigate effects on bone formation and resorption in ...
(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....
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]. ...

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 ...
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 ...
(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 ...
Mice were exposed to doses 6, 18 and 54 μg alongside carbon black (Printex 90) and NIST2975 and euthanized after 1, 28 or 90 days. Dose-dependent increases in total number of cells, neutrophils, and eosinophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were observed on day 1 post-exposure for...
