background aflatoxins are a group of very toxic compounds produced by a fungal species and are found in food products. aflatoxin m1 (afm1) is a type found in dairy products and resistant to pasteurization. afm1 can adversely affect hepatocytes in human and leading to various liver diseases. thus, it is essential to examine raw milk for the presence of afm1. conclusions according to the results ...

Determination of drug residues in food is of great importance due to their toxicity. Long-term exposure with low level of drug residues could be important, especially in children. Based on document study, oxytetracycline (OTC) is a prophylaxis and treatment agent for great number of diseases and possesses a broad spectrum activity against many pathogenic organisms and can be toxic or cause alle...

bark extract of pinus pinaster contains numerous phenolic compounds such as catechins, taxifolin, and phenolic acids. these compounds have received considerable attentions because of their anti-inflammatory, antimutagenic, anticarcinogenic, antimetastatic and high antioxidant activities. although p. pinaster bark has been intensely investigated in the past; there is comparably less information ...

The manufacturing equipment in pharmaceutical industry, could be used in multiple and sharedproduction lines, therefore there is the possibility for the products components and active ingredients tointermix and pollute one another. In this purpose the cleaning methods are used, to reduce the residueslevels from the machinery surfaces and decrease the residues to acceptable level but these metho...

the interaction of sulfur mustard with aminoacids and proteins has been investigated in this study. rats were injected with sublethal doses of sulfur mustard subcutaneously and intraperitoneally. at different time intervals, plasma and urine samples were collected. the binding affinity of sulfur mustard with urinary and plasma proteins and enzymes was studied for the first time using non-ideal ...

We assessed a relationship between the level of 8-oxodG in leukocyte DNA measured with the high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC/EC) technique and urinary excretion of the modified nucleoside/base analysed with a recently developed methodology involving HPLC prepurification followed by gas chromatography with isotope dilution mass spectrometric detection.
