The main scientific problems of chemical bonding were solved half a century ago, but adequate philosophical understanding of chemical combination is yet to be achieved. Chemists routinely use important terms (“element,” “atom,” “molecule,” “substance”) with more than one meaning. This can lead to misunderstandings. Eliminativists claim that what seems to be a baseball breaking a window is merel...
متن کاملUse of QSARs in international decision-making frameworks to predict health effects of chemical substances.
This article is a review of the use of quantitative (and qualitative) structure-activity relationships (QSARs and SARs) by regulatory agencies and authorities to predict acute toxicity, mutagenicity, carcinogenicity, and other health effects. A number of SAR and QSAR applications, by regulatory agencies and authorities, are reviewed. These include the use of simple QSAR analyses, as well as the...
متن کاملOn Tumor-Producing Chemical Substances*
The following is a review of the studies carried out in this laboratory during the past seven or eight years with the view of (a) elucidating the effect of certain exogenous tumor-producing chemical agents and (b) ascertaining the presence within the human body of chemical substances that may call forth the formation of tumors. The present review is based in the main on the results obtained by ...
متن کاملInternational regulatory needs for development of an IATA for non-genotoxic carcinogenic chemical substances.
Although regulatory requirements for carcinogenicity testing of chemicals vary according to product sector and regulatory jurisdiction, the standard approach starts with a battery of genotoxicity tests. If any of the in vivo genotoxicity tests are positive, a lifetime rodent cancer bioassay may be requested, which allows the detection of non-genotoxic carcinogens (NGTxC). However, under most ch...
