متن کاملUrinary stones as a novel matrix for human biomonitoring of toxic and essential elements.
Monitoring of body burden of toxic elements is usually based on analysis of concentration of particular elements in blood, urine and/or hair. Analysis of these matrices, however, predominantly reflects short- or medium-term exposure to trace elements or pollutants. In this work, urinary stones were investigated as a matrix for monitoring long-term exposure to toxic and essential elements. A tot...
متن کاملBiomonitoring of Toxic Effects of Pesticides in Occupationally Exposed Individuals
BACKGROUND Workers in pesticide manufacturing industries are constantly exposed to pesticides. Genetic biomonitoring provides an early identification of potential cancer and genetic diseases in exposed populations. The objectives of this biomonitoring study were to assess DNA damage through comet assay in blood samples collected from industry workers and compare these results with those of clas...
متن کاملToxic Elements in Soils

In building their tunnels and nests, they transport...
