There were no significant effects related to fine motor performances in the speed dimension. These results provide first indications for an underlying neurochemical pathomechanism involving the dopamine system of PCB-related deterioration of fine motor performance regarding accuracy.doi:10.1016/j.neuro.2021.03.008Petra Maria Gaum aIsabell...
Overall, the conclusion that high levels of TCDD exposure does not produce the same effects observed in laboratory animals is supported by the findings of Dow’s studies on its own exposed employees and the collective evaluation of human health data. The other sixteen dioxin compounds with some ...
Many studies have examined the health effects of PCB exposure in the workplace and in the general population. Acne-like skin conditions have been associated with high exposure in adults and neurobehavioural and immunological changes have been observed in some studies with children following maternal ...
Serum concentrations for two uncategorized PCBs (PCB56 and PCB146) were also included in the analysis herein. The model building strategy conducted by Cohn et al. [4] included two steps. Step 1 entered congeners in a single model with potentially opposing effects (e.g., estrogenic, Group1,...
For sensitive consumers and those with high-level consumption (e.g., whaling communities), exposure to mercury and to a lesser extent PCBs from certain whale blubber and bacon and striped dolphin liver products could lead to chronic health effects. The Japanese community should therefore exercise ...
The most sensitive window of EDCs exposure for the subsequent effects is during critical periods of development; fetal development and puberty are recognized as such (Bergman2013). There are lipophilic and non-lipophilic endocrine disruptive chemicals. Non-lipophilic chemicals are transported bound to al...
However, there is an enormous data gap between exposure quantification and possible health effects. More studies are needed to elucidate and provide holistic information on environmental and public health dangers posed by e-waste constituents.This is a preview of subscription content, log in via an ...
This paper presents the PCB distribution in soils from Delhi, India, and exposure risk estimates for human health through soil ingestion. The concentration of ??PCBs ranged between 1.08-100.67 ng g???1 (mean 21.16 ng g???1??5.24 ng g???1), which was much lower than the Canadian soil...
Recently, an important non-coplanar PCB congener was demonstrated to interfere with circadian rhythm regulation. Exposure of PCB153 led to significant transcriptional up-regulation of core clock genes, including cryptochrome (cry1aa, cry1ab, and cry1bb), period (per1a, per1b, per2, and per3...
Most of virtual models are based on the properties of chemicals and molecular mocking. Even some toxicological properties are provided from silico models. It is necessary to continue to carry out toxicity experiments and comprehensive analysis of exposure to better assess the health effects of LCMs....
