Journal Article
Effects of metals on the nervous system of humans and animals.
TL;DR: Several metals have toxic actions on nerve cells and neurobehavorial functioning and have been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, although it is unlikely that they are the sole cause for any of them.
Journal ArticleDOI
Uncertainty factors for chemical risk assessment. human variability in the pharmacokinetics of CYP1A2 probe substrates.
TL;DR: In this article, the validity of the human kinetic subfactor has been analyzed in relation to CYP1A2 metabolism using published in vivo pharmacokinetic parameters selected to reflect chronic exposure (metabolic and total clearances and area under the plasma concentration-time curve: CLm, CL and AUC) and acute exposure (the peak plasma concentration, C(max)).
Journal ArticleDOI
Personal exposure monitoring of particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, and carbon monoxide, including susceptible groups.
Roy M. Harrison,C. A. Thornton,R. G. Lawrence,David Mark,R. P. Kinnersley,Jonathan Geoffrey Ayres +5 more
TL;DR: Microenvironment measurements of carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide can well represent the personal exposures of individuals within that microenvironment, and this is true for PM10 with the addition of a personal cloud increment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry multielement analysis in fingernail and toenail as a biomarker of metal exposure.
Jean-Pierre Goullé,Elodie Saussereau,Loïc Mahieu,Daniel Bouige,S Groenwont,Michel Guerbet,Christian Lacroix +6 more
TL;DR: Application of ICP-MS multielement analysis in fingernail and toenail as a biomarker of metal and nonmetal exposure permits greater noninvasive control of industrial, domestic, or environmental exposure and is very useful for epidemiological studies.

PCBs in the western Mediterranean. Temporal trends and mass balance assessment
Imma Tolosa,Imma Tolosa,James W. Readman,Scott W. Fowler,Jean-Pierre Villeneuve,Jordi Dachs,Josep M. Bayona,Joan Albaigés +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared data reported for polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) concentrations in different environmental compartments of the western Mediterranean (dissolved and particulate phases of water, sediment and biota) over the last two decades.
