Biomonitoring exposure to metal compounds with carcinogenic properties.
Several metals such as arsenic, beryllium, chromium and nickel are carcinogenic to man when they occur in certain well-defined physicochemical forms. The carcinogenic potential of these metals is linked to their mutagenic properties. The determination of the metal or possibly of its metabolites in biological media and the cytogenetic examination of somatic cells are two methods that can current...
متن کاملInteractions by Carcinogenic Metal Compounds with DNA Repair Processes
Some metal compounds, including arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium and nickel have long been recognized as human and animal carcinogens, while for other as antimony, cobalt, lead and vanadium their carcinogenic action are probable or possible. Except chromium (VI), carcinogenic metals are only weak mutagens in mammalian cells and often inactive in bacterial assays. Since the mutagenicity in ...
متن کاملMultiplex genotyping as a biomarker for susceptibility to carcinogenic exposure in the FLEHS biomonitoring study.
Cancer has been suggested to result from interactions between genetic and environmental factors, and certain subgroups in the general population may be at increased risk because of their relatively higher susceptibility to environmental carcinogens. The current study, part of a large biomonitoring study conducted in Flanders from 2002 to 2006 (The Flanders Environment and Health Survey), aims t...
متن کاملoxidative damage modeling by biomonitoring of exposure to metals for manual metal arc welders
results the results revealed that metal urine concentration in welders was higher than controls but only the difference in chromium concentration was significant (p < 0.002). in the range of metals exposure, induction of oxidative stress for exposed group was observed by increase in urine mda (11.17 ± 4.23 and 4.83 ± 1.82 mm in welders and controls, respectively; p < 0.01). information of the m...
متن کاملBiomonitoring of human exposure to arylamines.
Extensive industrial use of arylamines started in the middle of the 19th century in the dye industry. Because of the high incidence of bladder cancer, arylamines belong to the first and most intensively studied occupational and environmental carcinogens. In workers, biomonitoring of exposure to arylamines including ortho-toluidine started in the first half of the 20th century. This review highl...
