This document lists citations for peer-reviewed journal articles that support a physiological basis for MCS. Disruption of the blood-brain barrier and neuronal cell death in cingulate cortex, dentate gyrus, thalamus, and hypothalamus in a rat model of Gulf-War syndrome. combined exposure to low doses of pyridostigmine bromide, DEET, and permethrin produce neurochemical and neuropathological alt...

Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) is a chronic acquired disorder of unknown pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to ascertain whether MCS patients present brain single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and psychometric scale changes after a chemical challenge. This procedure was performed with chemical products at non-toxic concentrations in 8 patients diagnosed with MCS and in t...

For a wide class of chemical reaction networks, including all those governed by detailed balanced mass-action kinetics, we examine the robustness of equilibrium species concentrations against fluctuations in the overall reactant supply. In particular, we present lower bounds on the individual species-concentration sensitivities that derive from reaction network structure alone, independent of k...

A major paper on multiple chemical sensitivity by Professor Martin L. Pall was published October 23, 2009 as chapter XX in a prestigious reference work for professional toxicologists, “General and Applied Toxicology, 3rd Edition” (John Wiley & Sons). Multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) is also known as chemical sensitivity, chemical intolerance and toxicant-induced loss of tolerance, with this ...
