Valuing environmental quality changes using averting expenditures: an application to groundwater contamination

TL;DR: In this paper, the averting expenditures method for valuing environmental improvements is examined and used to approximate the economic costs of groundwater degradation to households in a southeastern Pennsylvania community, and results indicate that households' knowledge of contamination, perception of risk, and presence of children determine whether they undertake averting actions and that their expenditure levels are higher if young children are present.

Prenatal chlorpyrifos exposure in rats causes persistent behavioral alterations.

TL;DR: The results indicate that late prenatal exposure to CPF induces long-term changes in cognitive performance that are distinctly gender-selective, and promotional effects of acetylcholine (ACh) on cell differentiation may help to offset CPF-induced developmental damage that occurs through other noncholinergic mechanisms.

Protein Turnover in Skeletal Muscle I. PROTEIN CATABOLISM DURING WORK-INDUCED HYPERTROPHY AND GROWTH INDUCED WITH GROWTH HORMONE

TL;DR: It is indicated that unlike work-induced hypertrophy, growth hormone increased protein synthesis in muscle without changing protein degradative rates.
