متن کاملInduction of monooxygenation in rainbow trout by polybrominated biphenyls: a comparative study.
Two commercial polychlorinated biphenyl mixtures (Aroclor 1254 and Aroclor 1242) and one polybrominated biphenyl mixture (FireMaster BP-6) were examined for their abilities to induce hepatic microsomal monooxygenation in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). Pretreatment of rainbow trout with Aroclors 1254 and 1242 (150 mg/kg IP) resulted in an approximate 10-fold induction of arylhydrocarbon (benzo...
متن کاملEffects of polybrominated biphenyls on kidney function and activity of renal microsomal enzymes.
Polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) cause hepatic microsomal enzyme stimulation and histopathological alterations in several organs, including kidney. Concern about effects of PBBs on the health of newborns has increased after the discovery of PBBs in milk of nursing mothers. Therefore, it was of interest to investigate the effects of PBBs on kidney function and the activity of renal microsomal enz...
