Mutagenicity of three disinfection by-products: di- and trichloroacetic acid and chloral hydrate in L5178Y/TK +/- (-)3.7.2C mouse lymphoma cells.

TL;DR: These three chemicals were evaluated for their potential to induce micronuclei and aberrations as well as mutations in L5178Y/TK +/- (-)3.7C mouse lymphoma cells and it seems reasonable to postulate that mutational events are involved in the etiology of the observed mouse liver tumors induced by DCA at drinking water doses.

Antioxidant activity of Potentilla fulgens: An alpine plant of western Himalaya

TL;DR: In this article, the antioxidant properties of methanol extract, fractions and isolated compounds from the roots of Potentilla fulgens Lodd were evaluated by three in vitro experiments, namely, ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP assays.

Influence of Intestinal Bacteria, Sex of the Animal, and Position of the Nitro Group on the Hepatic Genotoxicity of Nitrotoluene Isomers in Vivo

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the mononitrotoluenes display marked isomeric differences in their genotoxic potential, indicate the obligatory role of intestinal bacteria in the metabolic activation of 2NT, and show that the genot toxic potential of 2 NT is dependent upon the sex of the animal under study.

Low dose exposure to sodium arsenite synergistically interacts with UV radiation to induce mutations and alter DNA repair in human cells

TL;DR: The data suggest that pre-treatment of human cells with arsenic impairs the nucleotide excision repair pathway and leads to enhanced UV mutagenesis, and that As(III) is mutagenic only at high doses at the TK locus.

Occurrence of antibiotics residues in hospital wastewater, wastewater treatment plant, and in surface water in Nairobi County, Kenya.

TL;DR: Continuous monitoring of antibiotics residues in wastewater, surface water, and other environmental matrices is very important due to their adverse health and environmental effects and is useful in designing strategies for antibiotics pollution control and also in policy formulation.
