This has led to an ever growing exposure of human beings to this substance. The first purpose of the Nano Committee of Food and Drug Administration of The Islamic Republic of Iran (IFDA) is developing guidelines to assess and approve commerci...
متن کاملPlant constituents of cotton dust and lung effects after inhalation.
Experiments were performed to assess pulmonary reactions after inhalation of cotton dusts with different levels of tannins, terpenoid aldehydes and bacterial endotoxins. Guinea-pigs were exposed to cotton dust. Free lung cells were obtained by lavage 24 h later. A dose-response relationship was found between the number of neutrophils and the amount of endotoxin in the dust. No influence of terp...

Rylander, R. and Snella, M.-C. (1976). British Journal of Industrial Medicine, 33, 175-180. Acute inhalation toxicity of cotton plant dusts. The number of free lung-cells was studied in guinea-pigs after acute exposure to extracts of various cotton dusts. A good correlation was found between the increase in number of leucocytes in the airways and the number of Gram-negative bacteria in the diff...
متن کاملByssinosis: the acute effect on ventilatory capacity of dusts in cotton ginneries, cotton, sisal, and jute mills.
Studies of ventilatory capacity change in small groups of employees during a shift in a cotton mill and in three cotton ginneries in Uganda, a sisal factory in Kenya, and a jute mill in England, have demonstrated that an effect is produced by the dust in the cotton mill and in a very dusty ginnery but not in two other less dusty ginneries. No significant effect was detected in the sisal factory...
متن کاملAcute and Subchronic Inhalation Toxicity of n-Octane in Rats
OBJECTIVES We have investigated the toxic effects of the inhalation of subchronic and acute levels of n-octane. METHODS The rats were exposed to n-octane of 0, 2.34, 11.68 and 23.36 mg/L (n = 5 rats/group/gender) in an acute inhalation test (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) TG 403), or to 0, 0.93, 2.62 and 7.48 mg/L (n = 10 rats/group/gender) for a subchronic inha...
