Cadmium, carcinogen, co-carcinogen and anti carcinogen

A known human carcinogen.

Carcinogen risk assessment.

A molecular biological rationale for the linear nonthreshold dose-response pattern for carcinogenesis is presented based on the mutagenic activation of oncogens as the basis of initiation. The approach assumes that the linear nonthreshold dose pattern at very low doses applies only to tissues that are promoted by intrinsic and extrinsic agents other than the one being modeled, and that risk is ...

My colleague Professor John Cherrie once said that we know more about the number of birds breeding in British meadows each year (see http://jncc.defra. gov.uk/pdf/BBSreport12_web.pdf) than the number of workers exposed to carcinogens in the workplace. It is clearly important to monitor bird populations, but I would consider it of at least equal importance to know what hazardous agents workers a...
