Survey of arsenic and other heavy metals in food composites and drinking water and estimation of dietary intake by the villagers from an arsenic-affected area of West Bengal, India.
TL;DR: An investigation of arsenic, copper, nickel, manganese, zinc and selenium concentration in foodstuffs and drinking water, collected from 34 families and estimation of the average daily dietary intake were carried out in the arsenic-affected areas of the Jalangi and Domkal blocks, Murshidabad district, West Bengal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative determination of OH radical generation and its cytotoxicity induced by TiO2–UVA treatment
TL;DR: The cytotoxicity of TiO(2)-UVA irradiation was determined against Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and a significant relationship was obtained between the cytot toxicity and the OH generation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of arsenic-contaminated irrigation water on agricultural land soil and plants in West Bengal, India.
TL;DR: Higher the arsenic in groundwater, higher the arsenicIn agricultural land soil and plants has been observed and approximately 3.45% of arsenic is taken up by the root, stem and leaf respectively, from the soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glucuronidation of 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38), an active metabolite of irinotecan (CPT-11), by human UGT1A1 variants, G71R, P229Q, and Y486D.

TL;DR: The SN-38 glucuronidation activity of Y486D was drastically reduced, whereas the reduction in the G71R and P229Q activities was fractional, and the decreased SN- 38 glucuronidated efficiency ratio of G71 R and P 229Q could be critical in combination with other polymorphisms in the UGT1A1 gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic and other heavy metals in soils from an arsenic-affected area of West Bengal, India
TL;DR: A somewhat detailed study was carried out, in both micro- and macrolevel, to get an idea about the magnitude of soil contamination in this area, finding that soil arsenic concentration decreases with increase of distance from the source and higher the water arsenic concentration, higher the soil arsenic at any distance.
