suppression by albumin . by pentachlorophenol and its Haemolysis of human erythrocytes
نویسنده
چکیده
Pentachlorophenol (PCP), a potent and inexpensive biocide, has been used widely, especially for wood preservation. Because of its extensive use, there is concern about the possible health hazards caused by PCP. Cases of severe PCP intoxication have been described, some fatal. At least one case of haemolytic anaemia associated with PCP intoxication has been found' but little is known about the effects of PCP on erythrocytes.

متن کاملHaemolysis of various mammalian erythrocytes in sodium chloride, glucose and phosphate-buffer solutions.
Mouse, rat, rabbit, hamster, cow, pig, sheep, guinea-pig, dog and human erythrocytes were studied. A 0.9% or stronger solution of sodium chloride completely prevented haemolysis; sheep and pig erythrocytes appeared the more fragile, while human and dog erythrocytes were not haemolized in concentrations of 0.4% or more. Haemolysis of human, rabbit, cow, hamster, guineapig, pig and sheep erythroc...
متن کاملStudies of Interaction between Propranolol and Human Serum Albumin in the Presence of DMMP by Molecular Spectroscopy and Molecular Dynamics Simulation
The interaction between propranolol (PROP) and human serum albumin (HSA) was studied in the presence of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP). DMMP is usually considered as a simulant for chemical warfare agents (CWAs). For this purpose fluorescence quenching, resonance light scattering (RLS), synchronous, three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation were emplo...
