Workshop on perinatal exposure to dioxin-like compounds. I. Summary.
An international workshop reviewed 20 ongoing or recently completed studies of the effects of perinatal exposures to dioxins, dibenzofurans, and PCBs on the reproductive, endocrine, neurodevelopmental, and immune systems. Many of the observed effects are consistent with these compounds acting as "environmental hormones" or endocrine disrupters. This report summarizes the conclusions and future ...
متن کاملInfant exposure to dioxin-like compounds in breast milk.
We used a one-compartment, first-order pharmacokinetic model to predict the infant body burden of dioxin-like compounds that results from breast-feeding. Validation testing of the model showed a good match between predictions and measurements of dioxin toxic equivalents (TEQs) in breast-fed infants, and the exercise highlighted the importance of the assumption of the rate of dissipation of TEQs...
متن کاملComparison of Two Cell-Based Assays for Screening Dioxin and Dioxin-Like Compounds in Sediments
PURPOSE: The purpose of this technical note is to report the results of studies comparing two cell-based assays as screening tools for dioxins and related compounds in sediments. The Reuber H4IIE rat hepatoma cell line and the recombinant 101L human hepatoma cell line were used to assay 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) toxic equivalents (TEQs) in split samples of the same sediment ext...
متن کاملEffects of heteroatom substitution in conjugated heterocyclic compounds on photovoltaic performance: from sulfur to tellurium.
We report a general strategy for fine-tuning the bandgap of donor-acceptor-donor based organic molecules by modulating the electron-donating ability of the donor moiety by changing the benzochalcogenophene donor groups from benzothiophenes to benzoselenophenes to benzotellurophenes. These molecules show red-shifts in absorption and external quantum efficiency maxima from sulfur to selenium to t...
متن کاملSex ratio in offspring of those affected by dioxin and dioxin-like compounds: the Yusho, Seveso, and Yucheng incidents.
Sex ratios in the offspring of those affected by dioxins or dioxin-like compounds have been reported from Seveso, Italy and Yucheng, Taiwan. The sex ratio of live births in Yusho, Japan after a similar accidental massive exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) in 1968 are reviewed. Data on all births among parents exposed to the compounds from 1968...
