Approach: In the sighting … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsToxicity Testing and the Effect of Landfill Leachate in Malaysia on Behavior of Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L., 1758; Pisces, Cyprinidae)Jaffar Y.M. Alkassasbeh, Lee Yook Heng, Salmijah SurifProblem Statement: Landfill leachate had been implicated in environmental pollution, developmental anomalies, birth defect and surface and groundwater pollution worldwide. This study has been conducted to determine the toxicity of landfill leachate from three different landfills in Malaysia on fry common carp (Cyprinus carpio L., 1758; Pisces, Cyprinidae) in combination with some physico-chemical parameters analysis. Approach: Leachates were collected from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsSurvival Following Severe Paraquat Poisoning a Case Study from the Andaman and Nicobar IslandsShiv Shankar Singh, Colin Sanchez, Prasan Kumar PandaParaquat poisoning continues to pose a significant public health challenge in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, largely due to its alarmingly high mortality rate. In this report, we present the case of a 39-year-old male farmer who ingested 30 mL of paraquat with the intent of suicide. Initially, the patient underwent prompt gastric lavage and exhibited relative stability. Upon admission, … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2025 · 10,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsECOTOXICOLOGICAL BIOASSAYS OF THE EARTHWORMS ALLOLOBOPHORA CALIGINOSA SAVIGNY AND PHERETIMA HAWAYANA ROSA TREATED WITH ARSENATEAbdelmonem Mohamed KhalilLittle research has been carried out on the effect of arsenate on earthworms. Ecotoxicological laboratory tests are fundamental tools for assessing the toxicity of arsenate to soil organisms. In this study, the impact of arsenate on the survival, reproduction and behaviour of the endogenic earthworms Allolobophora caliginosa and the anecic earthworms Pheretima hawayana has been quantified.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrastructural and Circadian Morphometric Characteristics of Rat Pinealocytes Under Physiological and Toxic ConditionsAnna I. Anurkina, David A. Areshidze, Maria A. Kozlova, Valery P. ChernikovCarbon tetrachloride (CCl₄) exhibits pronounced neurotoxic effects following acute or chronic exposure. Recent studies indicate that the pineal gland responds to CCl₄ intoxication by altering its secretory function, although detailed ultrastructural changes in pinealocytes remain inadequately investigated. This research addresses the urgent need to elucidate the mechanisms of CCl₄ toxicity on the pineal gland, which could contribute to developing strategies … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 1 Jun 2026 · 1,170 accessesView PDFCite
