Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenotoxicity through Exposure to Particulate Matter (PM10) at two Sites in the Valle de Aburrá, ColombiaVerónica Estrada-Vélez, Lucelly López-López, Lina María Martínez-Sánchez et al.To establish differences in the genotoxic effect of particulate matter (PM10) in exposed individuals at two sites in the Valle de Aburrá (VA). This was a descriptive cross-sectional study of 2 groups of individuals exposed to 67.7 and 45 µg/m3 of PM10 for a minimum of 8 hours/day. The frequency of Chromosomal Abnormalities (CAs) and the mitotic index were evaluated … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2019 · 8,368 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSelected Genotoxic Impurities Profiling During WFI Qualification to Control Carcinogenesis in Large Volume ParenteralsMohabbat UllahWater For Injections (WFI) which is the main vehicle of Large Volume Parenterals (LVPs) should be free from trace amount of genotoxic impurities. This review gives emphasis on quantification of genotoxic trace metals during qualification of WFI in LVPs manufacturing unit. According to ICH guidelines, impurities related to drug substances are classified into three main categories: Organic impurities, inorganic (elemental) … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 27 May 2015 · 7,708 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenotoxic Profile of Motor Garage WorkersNandan M. Shastri, Hemlata PantProblem statement: One way to study the effects on an exposed population is to conduct monitoring studies, using relevant biological parameters with a short term manifestation, such as cytogenetic analysis express the damages to the DNA or to the chromosomes resulting from exposure can be identified. The present study was thus designed to elucidate the effect motor garage environment on … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 15 Oct 2011 · 8,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Genotoxic Activity of Para-nitrophenol in Higher Plant Using Arbitrarily Primed- polymerase Chain Reaction (AP-PCR)Mohamed R. EnanParanitrophenol is a common toxic environmental pollutant; the aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of the DNA fingerprinting by AP-PCR assay to detect the DNA damage in the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) exposed to different concentrations of paranitrophenol (4.0-720 nM). The changes occurring in the fingerprint patterns were likely to be the result of paranitrophenol-induced DNA damage. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCytogenetic Analysis among Train Depot Workers Exposed to Total Volatile Organic CompoundsNormah Awang, Siti Adillah Isah, Asmah HamidOccupational exposure to toxic chemicals such as Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC) from diesel engine exhaust implicates genotoxic risk. The objective of this study was to determine the DNA damage among KL Sentral depot workers exposed to TVOC by means of cytogenetic analysis. Data were obtained partially from disseminated questionnaires and buccal cells samples were collected from a total of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2015 · 7,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsZinc Phosphide Induced DNA Damage in the Blood Cells of Gallus sp. using Comet DNA AssayK. A. Muid, R. M. Shahjahan, R. Begum, R. A. BegumProblem statement: The comet DNA assay is considered a suitable and rapid test for DNA-damaging potential in environmental and biomonitoring studies. Approach: During the study comets were analyzed as a measure of DNA damage to quantify the damage in the blood cells of fowls (Gallus sp.) after exposure to Zinc Phosphide (Zn3P2). Here the potential for DNA strand breaks by … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 8,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Health Risk of Formaldehyde to Human BeingsS. Norliana, A. S. Abdulamir, F. Abu Bakar, A. B. SallehProblem statement: Formaldehyde was classified as a potential human carcinogen, identified by the US Environmental Protection Agency and International Agency for Research on Cancer as a Class 2A carcinogen. It also can cause irritation to human. However, formaldehyde present in biological fluids or tissues and environment as a result of natural processes or from man-made sources and can be emitted … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 15,273 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of the Mutagenicity of 2-aminoanthracene Using Chicken Hepatic S-9 FractionVladimir A. Chistyakov, Alexander V. Usatov, Aleksander I. Klimenko et al.The abundance of potential genotoxins makes it necessary to improve microbial test systems that allow to identify these substances quickly. At the same time, the methodology of metabolic activation of promutagens in vitro is very important. Microsomal preparations of rodents, which are generally used for that, have significant disadvantages associated with the potential health risks of the inducers of the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 16 Nov 2018 · 7,192 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIs RNA Binding in the Rossmann Fold Essential for GAPDH Intranuclear Functions?Natalia Krynetskaia, Manali Phadke, Evgeny KrynetskiyIn addition to its prominent enzymatic activity, GAPDH is an enigmatic component of multiple unrelated biochemical entities. In this study, we explored a series of mutated GAPDH and fusion EGFP-GAPDH polypeptides and compared nuclear accumulation, intranuclear mobility and RNA binding properties of the wild type and variant GAPDH proteins. Our results revealed that RNA binding to T99I-mutated GAPDH with non-functional … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2016 · 7,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduction of Micronuclei in Mice Lymphocytes Exposed to Microwave and TolueneS. B. Mortazavi, A. Safari, A. Khavanin et al.Increasing applications of microwave radiation are of great concern with regard to public health.
