Detection of agents causing genetic or reproductive damage.
Reproductive effects have been called "the new frontier in occupational and environmental health research"' and previously, "the occupational health issue of the 1980s."2 By comparison with the many potentially toxic or mutagenic occupational agents currently in use, however, little evidence has so far accumulated to incriminate or to exonerate the effects of specific exposures on reproduction....
متن کاملComparison of assays for detection of agents causing membrane damage in Staphylococcus aureus.
OBJECTIVES To develop a novel beta-galactosidase leakage assay for Staphylococcus aureus and to evaluate this alongside other simple methods for detection of agents that cause membrane damage in staphylococci. METHODS Using a PCR-based approach, a derivative of S. aureus RN4220 was constructed carrying the Escherichia coli lacZ gene under the control of the strong staphylococcal promoter, cap...
متن کاملdetection of volatile compounds of medicinal plants with some nano-sorbents using modified or new methodologies and investigation of antioxidant activity of their methanolic extracts
in this work, a novel and fast method for direct analysis of volatile compounds (davc) of medicinal plants has been developed by holding a filament from different parts of a plant in the gc injection port. the extraction and analysis of volatile components of a small amount of plant were carried out in one-step without any sample preparation. after optimization of temperature, extraction time a...
Detection of genetic effects of environmental agents.
The fundamental problems in population monitoring for genetic effects are twofold: the binomialized nature of the data and the lower power due to small risk of finding positive results. The binomial character is artificial, even forced, and can with advantage be replaced by more refined analysis, and by a focus on all mutations, not merely harmful ones. Moreover, a binomial treatment ignores ac...
متن کاملEndogenous Agents That Contribute to Generate or Prevent Ischemic Damage
From single to multicellular organisms, protective mechanisms have evolved against endogenous and exogenous noxious stimuli. Over the past decades numerous signaling pathways by which the brain senses and reacts to such insults as neurotoxins, substrate deprivation and inflammation have been discovered. Research on preconditioning is aimed at understanding endogenous neuroprotection to boost it...
