O-Aminoazotoluene as a Carcinogenic Agent *
In 1932, 1933, and 1934 Yoshida5' 6, 7,8,9 announced the production of liver-cell tumors in the white rat after prolonged feeding with o-aminoazotoluene (2-amino-5-azotoluene). This compound is dosely related to the azo dye, Scharlach R, and is structurally unlike any of the carcinogenic hydrocarbons of the phenanthrene series. Aside from structure, the compound has aroused considerable interes...
متن کاملIS TAR ANJEBIN A PROPHYLACTIC AGENT FOR NEONATAL JAUNDICE?
Taranjebin is a plant resin obtained from camel's thorn, a shrub abundant in desert areas of Iran. It contains saccharose and has been traditionally used by grandmothers to treat neonatal jaundice. This study was conducted to test the effectiveness of taranjebin in reducing bilirubin in physiologic ranges when used prophylactically in normal full-term newborns. ,95 term healthy newborns wer...
متن کاملCarcinogenic risks of prenatal ionizing radiation.
The risk of cancer in offspring who have been exposed to diagnostic X-ray procedures while in utero has been debated for 55 years. High doses at high dose rates to the embryo or fetus (e.g. >0.5 Gy) increase the risk of cancer. This has been demonstrated in human epidemiology studies as well as in mammalian animal studies. Most pregnant women exposed to diagnostic X-ray procedures or the diagno...
متن کاملPediatric Exposures to Ionizing Radiation: Carcinogenic Considerations
Children are at a greater risk than adults of developing cancer after being exposed to ionizing radiation. Because of their developing bodies and long life expectancy post-exposure, children require specific attention in the aftermath of nuclear accidents and when radiation is used for diagnosis or treatment purposes. In this review, we discuss the carcinogenic potential of pediatric exposures ...
متن کاملCarcinogenic effects of Non-Ionizing Radiation: A Paradigm Shift
We are in the midst of a paradigm shift when it comes to our understanding of the biological effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic frequencies generated by our use of electricity, electronics and wireless technology. Ionizing radiation (IR) has enough energy to break chemical bonds and is known to cause cancer. However, because nonionizing radiation (NIR) lacks this energy, it was assumed tha...
