Statistical relationship between metabolic decomposition and chemical uptake predicts bioconcentration factor data for diverse chemical exposures

Early-life chemical exposures and risk of metabolic syndrome

The global prevalence of obesity has been increasing at a staggering pace, with few indications of any decline, and is now one of the major public health challenges worldwide. While obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) have historically thought to be largely driven by increased caloric intake and lack of exercise, this is insufficient to account for the observed changes in disease trends. Ther...

The Relationship between Chemical Constitution and Taste.

Some time ago the author had occasion to prepare a quantity of phenyl thio carbamide, and while placing it in a bottle the dust flew around in the air. Another occupant of the laboratory, Dr. C. R. Noller, complained of the bitter taste of the dust, but the author, who was much closer, observed no taste and so stated. He even tasted some of the crystals and assured Dr. Noller they were tasteles...

Relationship between Inhibitory Activity and Chemical Structure

When it was found tha t 2,5-dimethylbenzimidazole inhibits the multiplication of influenza viruses (1-3), a systematic investigation of other alkyl derivatives of benzimidazole was undertaken. I t seemed probable tha t studies on the relationship between the chemical structure of such derivatives and their inhibitory act ivi ty relative to influenza virus multiplication would yield information ...

Headliners: Chemical Exposures and Childhood Leukemia: Parental Chemical Exposures and ras Mutations in Children

Background: Urinary incontinence (UI) following radical prostatectomy is a well-recognized risk of the surgery. In most patients post-operative UI improves over time. To date, there is limited objective, quantitative data on the natural history of the resolution of post-prostatectomy UI. The purpose of this study was to define the natural history of post radical prostatectomy incontinence using...
