The Effect of Diet on the Mammalian Gut Flora and Its Metabolic Activities

TL;DR: The effects of manipulation of the quantity and quality of protein, fat, and indigestible residues (fiber) of the diet will be described together with their possible implications for toxicity of ingested compounds.

Toxicological profile for alpha-, beta-, gamma, and delta-hexachlorocyclohexane

TL;DR: This edition supersedes any previously released draft or final profile and provides information helpful for fast answers to often-asked questions about toxic substances.

What to eat now? Shifts in polar bear diet during the ice‐free season in western Hudson Bay

TL;DR: The current terrestrial diet of polar bears in western Hudson Bay is characterized by evaluating the contents of passively sampled scat and comparing it to a similar study conducted 40 years ago, and whether the observed diet shift is solely a response to a nutritional stress or is an expression of plastic foraging behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dietary fibre, bacterial metabolism and toxicity of nitrate in the rat

TL;DR: This increased nitrite production in vitro was associated with methaemoglobinaemia following the oral administration of nitrate to rats fed the diet containing pectin, and animals receiving the basal fibre-free diet were unaffected by nitrate.

Hepatic steatosis in zebra fish (Brachydanio rerio) induced by long-term exposure to γ-hexachlorocyclohexane

TL;DR: In a full life cycle test, newly hatched eggs of zebra fish, Brachydanio rerio, were reared to sexual maturity under continuous exposure to 40, 80, 110, 130, and 150 μg/liter lindane, γ-hexachlorocyclohexane.
