Development of Medical Countermeasures to Chemical Terrorism—The NIEHS’s Involvement in a Government-Wide Research Effort

Řeřicha et al. (2006) analyzed data from Czech uranium miners with respect to incidence of malignancies of the lymphohematopoietic system. Their results, however, do not correspond with those of two recent studies on German uranium miners (Kreuzer et al. 2004; Möhner et al. 2006). Řeřicha et al. (2006) used a case– cohort design, in which the subcohort was stratified by attained age and duratio...

Countermeasures Against Chemical/Biological Attacks in the Built Environment

t is well known that buildings and facilities are susceptible to attack with chemical and biological agents. Builders, architects, security specialists, and technologists are engaged in discussions on what systems and practices are required to form countermeasures against such attacks. A facility in which sensors have detected a threat and active mechanical system control occurs to adapt to the...

Alternative approaches for medical countermeasures to biological and chemical terrorism and warfare.

The desire to develop and evaluate drugs as potential countermeasures for biological and chemical threats requires test systems that can also substitute for the clinical trials normally crucial for drug development. Animal models have limited predictivity for drug efficacy, as is well known from many disappointments in clinical trials. Traditional in vitro and in silico approaches are not reall...
