What is Rational Molecular Design for Reduced Toxicity? Rational Molecular Design for Reduced Toxicity is the use of information from empirical, mechanistic and computational methods to create ...
This visual summary illustrates the chronic toxicity pathway of tire-derived chemicals 6PPD and 6PPD-quinone (6PPDQ) in zebrafish. After environmental transformation and aquatic exposure, the ...
Dr. Dray emphasizes a central toxicology truth: “It’s not the poison, it’s the dose.” Many heavy metals exist naturally in the environment—and even in our bodies. But when levels build up due to ...
Nanotoxicity refers to the potential adverse health effects caused by exposure to nanomaterials, which are materials with at least one dimension measuring less than 100 nanometers. As the use of ...
Emerging contaminants from rubber tires N-(1,3-Dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD) and its oxidation product 6PPD-quinone (6PPDQ)-are raising new red flags for aquatic ecosystems. A ...
Cyanide poisoning is a hazard in many enclosed-space fires, and its occurrence in smoke-inhalation victims may be underestimated. Acute cyanide exposure results primarily in CNS, cardiovascular, and ...
