Adult female F-344 rats were trained (avoidance rate > 70%) over four days with a coupled tone- (n = 10 rats/dose) or 2 ppm acetaldehyde-cued (n = 6 rats/dose) foot shock paradigm. Rats were gavaged with chloroform dissolved in corn oil for 5 days/week for 3 week at 0 or 400 (tone-cued) or 0, 34,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the antifertility activity of the chloroform extract of Carica papaya seeds by oral administration in langur monkey, Presbytis entellus entellus.
METHODS
The chloroform extract of Carica papaya seeds, 50 mg/kg/day, was administered orally for 360 days to adult male langur
1. Some conditions for the optimal activation of plasma proteolytic enzyme by chloroform have been described. The activation proceeds slowly. The action of chloroform is probably to remove some substance which inhibits or inactivates the plasma proteolytic enzyme preparation, rather than a direct
The objective of this study was to determine whether aging in the housefly is associated with a general decline in the efficiency of the mechanisms protective against the intermediates of oxygen metabolism. The rate of oxygen consumption, activities of superoxide dismutase (total and
Dose-response relationships were determined for the induction of cytolethality and regenerative cell proliferation in the established target organs (liver, kidneys, and nasal passages) of female F-344 rats given chloroform daily by gavage. Rats were administered chloroform dissolved in corn oil at
Chloroform extract of Prunus africana (Hook f. (Rosaceae) did not cause clinical signs or pathology in rats at daily oral doses of up to 1,000 mg/kg for 8 weeks. The extract caused marked clinical signs, organ damage and a 50% mortality rate at a dose of 3.3 g/kg for 6 days. The main lesions
The influence of the intestinal microbial reduction of rhein anthraquinone on the formation of deterioration products was studied. Therefore [14C]rhein and [14C]rhein anthrone were mixed with sterilized or non-sterilized cecal mass of rats and incubated for 20 hours at 37 degrees C. Extractions with
OBJECTIVE
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder. About 80% - 90% of SMA patients are missing both copies of SMN1, and 5% - 10% of patients are compound heterozygotes. In the present study, we aimed to analyze survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene mutation in
Unilateral and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses were performed on a parchment fragment of the Dead Sea Scroll (DSS). The analyzed sample belongs to the collection of non-inscribed and nontreated fragments of known archaeological provenance from the John Rylands University
Chloroform acts via a nongenotoxic-cytotoxic mode of action to produce cancer if given in doses and at dose rates sufficiently high to produce organ-specific toxicity. In a recent study, chloroform failed to induce cancer in male or female F-344 rats when administered by inhalation for 2 years at 90
Chloroform is an important environmental water and air pollutant. Inhalation exposure of female B6C3F1 mice and F-344 rats for 6 hr/day for 7 consecutive days to 0, 1, 3, 10, 30, 100, or 300 ppm of chloroform resulted in concentration-dependent lesions in the nasal passages. Chloroform-induced
It has been reported that chloroform administered to BDF1 mice by inhalation for 2 years at concentrations of 5, 30 or 90 p.p.m. for 6 h/day, 5 days/week induced an increase in renal cell tumors in male but not female mice exposed to the doses of 30 and 90 p.p.m. A small increase in liver tumors was
Detailed quantitative descriptions of the toxicity of inhaled chloroform are lacking, despite the fact that the majority of environmental exposures occur by this route. We investigated the ability of chloroform vapors to produce toxicity and regenerative cell proliferation in the livers and kidneys,
