Introduction:Among the pollutants in waste gases, volatile organic carbons (VOCs) are very harmful for human, animals and plants. Formaldehyde is a member of VOCs family and is very toxic, mutagen and carcinogen. For removing formaldehyde, Some biological methods for treating waste gases such as bio-trickling filter reactor (BTFR) have been developed by scientists. The aim of this study was to ...
متن کاملConcentration dependent effect of morphine, aspirin, capsaicin and chili pepper hydro alcoholic extract on thermal and chemical pain model in fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster)
Introduction: Pain research using animal models is related to ethical concerns, so invertebrates and insects have been recommended by researchers. In the present study, the nociceptive and antinociceptive effects of capsaicin, aspirin, morphine and chili extract were examined using fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) as an alternative for rodent pain model. Methods: Stage 3 of larvae and ad...
متن کاملThe mutagenic action of formaldehyde on bacteria.
Rapoport (1946), Kaplan (1948), and Auerbach (1949) found formaldehyde highly mutagenic for Drosophila when administered with its food. Auerbach (1949), however, observed negative results when Drosophila was exposed to formaldehyde vapor and concluded that formaldehyde acts indirectly through chemical changes brought about in food constituents. Dickey, Cleland, and Lotz (1949) found formaldehyd...
