Bioconcentration of Pesticides in Fish from Rivers and Lakes
Pesticide contamination of river and lake waters from agriculture use is a problem of worldwide importance. Many field data on the pesticide contamination of surface waters and aquatic organisms in rivers and lakes (Amaraneri & Pillala, 2001, Abdel-Halim et al., 2006; Agradi et al., 2000; California Environmental Protection Agency, 2002; California Regional Water Quality Control Board, 2002; Ca...
متن کاملIn Vivo Biotransformation Rates of Organic Chemicals in Fish: Relationship with Bioconcentration and Biomagnification Factors.
In vivo dietary bioaccumulation experiments for 85 hydrophobic organic substances were conducted to derive the in vivo gastrointestinal biotransformation rates, somatic biotransformation rates, bioconcentration factors (BCF), and biomagnification factors (BMF) for improving methods for bioaccumulation assessment and to develop an in vivo biotransformation rate database for QSAR development and ...
متن کاملAdipoRon may be benefit for atherosclerosis prevention
Atherosclerosis has serious role in coronary arteries disease,so it is important to establish effective strategies for prevention or even treatment of atherosclerosis. Adiponectin, as one of the most abundant adipokines, has insulin sensitivity, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic properties. Disturbed adiponectin actions through its receptor, (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) may be involved in atheros...
متن کاملSchistosomiasis transmission at high altitude crater lakes in Western Uganda
BACKGROUND Contrary to previous reports which indicated no transmission of schistosomiasis at altitude >1,400 m above sea level in Uganda, in this study it has been established that schistosomiasis transmission can take place at an altitude range of 1487-1682 m above sea level in western Uganda. METHODS An epidemiological survey of intestinal schistosomiasis was carried out in school children...
متن کاملTelecommunications over High Altitude Platforms
Provision of broadband services is raising increasing challenges, particularly in operating environments requiring wireless access. In this context an emerging solution based on aerial platforms is attracting increasing amounts of research effort. This concept combines some of the best characteristics of terrestrial and satellite communication systems, and it provides alternative and complement...
