In an evaluation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for the IARC Monograph 111, the Mechanisms
Subgroup was tasked with assessing the strength of evidence on the potential …

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are industrial chemicals used in various applications
requiring chemical stabilityand have now become widely dispersed. Their characteristics of …

Mono-, di-, tri-, and tetra-chlorinated polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are congeners with
greater volatility which remain in air, soils and sediments requiring treatment. In this study …

Abstract Introduction: Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent, lipophilic
contaminants that are known to increase risk of a number of human diseases. Although …

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are legacy pollutants that exert toxicities through various
mechanisms. In recent years exposure to PCBs via inhalation has been recognized as a …

Rats are a standard experimental animal for cancer bioassay and toxicological research for
chemicals. Although the genetic analyses were behind mice, rats have been more frequently …

After absorption by the organism, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) cross cellular
membranes and pass into blood vessels and the lymphatic system. It is generally in the liver …

Hydroxylated metabolites of polychlorinated biphenyls (OH-PCBs) have been found to be
ubiquitous in the environment due to the oxidative metabolism of their parent PCBs. With …

4-Monochlorobiphenyl (CB3), mainly an airborne pollutant, undergoes rapid
biotransformation to produce hydroxylated metabolites (OH− CB3s). However, up to now …

4-Monochlorobiphenyl (PCB3) is readily converted by xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes to
dihydroxy-metabolites and quinones. The PCB3 hydroquinone (PCB3-HQ; 2-(4 …
