The anti-inflammatory activity of hispidol A 25-methyl ether (hispidol A 25-Me ether), a triterpenoid isolated from Ponciri Immaturus Fructus, was studied in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 murine macrophages. It was revealed that hispidol A 25-Me ether dose-dependently inhibits nitric

A range of acute studies were performed with chloromethyl methyl either (CMME) and bis(chloromethyl)ether (BCME), including 14-day LC50's following single seven-hour inhalation exposures. The LC50's for CMME were 55 ppm for rats and 65 ppm for hamsters. The LC50's for BCME were 7 ppm for both

Following a formulation change, a leather conditioner was involved in a 1992 nationwide outbreak of respiratory illness. We investigated the composition and toxicity of the conditioner produced before (previous product) and after (new product) the disease outbreak. The new product induced tachypnea,

Gasoline additives ethyl tert butyl ether (ETBE) and tertiary amyl methyl ether (TAME) are used world wide, but the consequence of developmental exposure to these hydrophilic chemicals is unknown for aquatic vertebrates. The effect of ETBE and TAME on zebrafish embryos was determined following OECD

Pentachloroanisole is a chlorinated aromatic compound which is widely distributed at low levels in the environment and in food products. Formation of pentachloroanisole in the environment may result from the degradation of structurally related, commercially important, ubiquitous chlorinated aromatic
