Hearing: PCBs Alter Brain Development
Exposure to the non-coplanar polychlorinated biphenyl PCB95 during gestation and nursing causes abnormal development of the auditory cortex in rats, affecting the brain’s representation of what is heard, according to new research in the 1 May 2007 issue of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

متن کاملBrain Drain? PBDEs Alter Development of Human Brain Cells
Human exposure to phthalates is ubiquitous due to widespread commercial use. Although the compounds are reported to be rap idly metabolized, concentrations in the body appear to remain fairly stable due to ongoing exposure. The United States and Europe have banned some phthalates from consumer products primarily on the basis of reproductive toxicity data. However, not all phthalates are regula...

متن کاملDoes Muscle Fatigue Alter EEG Bands of Brain Hemispheres?
Background: Muscle fatigue has been known to influence brain activity, but very little is known about how cortical centers respond to muscle fatigue.Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of muscle contraction and fatigue induced by two different percents of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) on Electroencephalography (EEG) signals.Material and Methods: In t...
متن کاملDevelopment of fetal hearing.
Previous research has revealed that the human fetus responds to sound, but to date there has been little systematic investigation of the development of fetal hearing. The development of fetal behavioural responsiveness to pure tone auditory stimuli (100 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, and 3000 Hz) was examined from 19 to 35 weeks of gestational age. Stimuli were presented by a loudspeaker placed o...
