TL;DR: The activity hypothesis is shown to be consistent with the critical body residue concept, but it has the advantage of avoiding the confounding effect of lipid content of the test organism, and provides a theoretically sound basis for assessing the baseline toxicity of mixtures.
Abstract: The physico-chemical properties relevant to the equilibrium partitioning (bioconcentration) of chemicals between organisms and their respired media of water and air are reviewed and illustrated for chemicals that range in hydrophobicity. Relationships are then explored between freely dissolved external concentrations such as LC50s and chemical properties for one important toxicity mechanism, namely baseline toxicity or narcosis. The ‘activity hypothesis’ proposed by Ferguson in 1939 provides a coherent and compelling explanation for baseline toxicity of chemicals in both water- and air-respiring organisms, as well as a reference point for identifying more specific toxicity pathways. From inhalation studies with fish and rodents, narcosis is shown to occur at a chemical activity exceeding approximately 0.01 and there is no evidence of narcosis at activities less than 0.001. The activity hypothesis provides a framework for directly comparing the toxic potency of chemicals in both air- and water-breathing an...

TL;DR: In this paper, a single-step flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) method was used to synthesize nitrogen-doped TiO2 catalysts, where the nitrogen atoms mainly occupied interstitial positions in the crystal structure of titania.

TL;DR: It is shown that a significant number of individuals in this cardio-healthy population had detectable circulating troponin concentration, and the new hs-TnT assay shows improved precision and sensitivity at very low trop onin concentration.
Abstract: BackgroundIt is desirable that current assays for cardiac troponin (cTn) are able to meet the recommended criterion that the diagnosis and risk assessment of patients present with symptoms of myoca...
