In this study, the performance of one most popular household drinking water purification systems (WPS) Turkey was evaluated. Tap and purified samples were taken from İpsala District (Thrace Region). A total 23 significant quality assessment parameters including essential toxic metals (pH, TDS, EC, turbidity, Cl, NO3, SO4, PO4, BOD, COD, B, Al, Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Sr, Mo, Sb, Ba, Pb) measure...

Crayfish, carp, and crab threaten the consumer’s health due to enrichment of toxic elements. The concentration elements (As, Cr, Cd, Pb) in these aquatics was less investigated simultaneously situ. In this study, from same site Hanchuan, Hubei Province, China were measured by ICP-MS assess four them risk consumer. results showed that concentrations muscle lower than those hepatopancreas/ liver,...

This investigation measured the extent of heavy metal concentrations (Cr, Pb, Fe, Zn and Ni) in nine finfish shellfish species from a tropical estuary to determine degree pollution evaluate human health risk exposure metals through consumption fish. The hierarchy mean (mg/kg) were: (398.47) > Fe (83.015) Cr (0.906) Ni (0.233) Pb (0.128). edible tissues were ranked following sequence: A. bato C....

Benefits and risks of the fish consumption should be assessed to balance ingestion healthy omega-3 fatty acids adverse chemicals. Persistent organic pollutants-POPs (organochlorine pesticides-OCPs polychlorinated biphenyls-PCB), macro- micro-elements acid contents were determined in six species from Adriatic Sea assess health for consumers (worst-case scenario, diseases development benefit-risk...

Calorie restriction (CR) extends lifespan and has been shown to reduce age-related diseases including cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases in experimental models. Recent translational studies have tested the potential of CR or CR mimetics as adjuvant therapies to enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and novel immunotherapies. Chronic CR is chal...

UNLABELLED A 77-year-old man with early synchronous double primary gastric and esophageal cancer showed complete response (CR) to chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with fluorouracil (5-FU) and cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (CDDP) and 60 Gy total dose of radiation. Gastrointestinal endoscopy had revealed type IIc squamous cell carcinoma in the lower oesophagus and type IIc adenocarcinoma in the mid-stomach...

the extent of groundwater arsenic (as) contamination and associated health-risks were studiedin the four villages: chaukia and terahrasiya (vaishali); mamalkha and masharu (bhagalpur) in bihar, india.groundwater samples were tested using the standard silverdiethyledithiocarbamate method at 520nm bythermo uv-1 spectrophotometer. the as levels in both the districts exceeded the who standard of 10...

naturally occurring radionuclide of terrestrial origin (also called primordial radionuclide) are present in various degrees in all media in the environment, including the human body itself. their concentrations in environment decrease continually by decaying. the main objective of this study is to evaluate the radioactivity levels and health risks due to terrestrial radionuclide in soil of yalo...

background: not only the expand development of knowledge for reducing risk factors, but also the improvement in early diagnosis and treatment of cancer, and socioeconomic inequalities could affect cancer incidence, diagnosis stage, and mortality. the aim of this study was investigation the relationships between family levels of socioeconomic status and distribution of breast cancer risk factors...
