Laboratory of Environmental Toxicology: Summary Statement
The scientific efforts of the Laboratory of Environmental Toxicology (LET) are directed toward the prevention of environmentally related diseases through understanding mechanisms of toxicity. Special emphasis is placed upon environmental factors which may adversely affect reproduction and development. Toxicologic phenomena are studied from the descriptive to the molecular level in search of a b...
متن کاملLaboratory of Environmental Biophysics: Summary Statement
The objectives of the nonionizing radiation research program are as follows: (1) to develop microwave exposure systems for bioeffects research; (2) to develop and test techniques for measuring microwave energy absorption; (3) to determine the effect of microwaves on isolated nerve preparations; (4) to determine how 2450 MHz microwave radiation interacts with biological systems at all levels; (5...
متن کاملLaboratory of Environmental Mutagenesis: Summary Statement
The primary objective of the Institute's program in mutagenesis is focused on evaluation and definition of risks to both human somatic and germinal tissue resulting from exposure to genetically active environmental chemicals. The Laboratory of Environmental Mutagenesis was organized late in FY 1972. Because of the worldwide shortage of resources for the rapid development of research in various ...
متن کاملLaboratory of Pharmacology: Summary Statement
The Laboratory of Pharmacology initiates and carries out research programs that are primarily concerned with (1) mechanisms by which environmental pollutants and effectors cause toxicity, (2) the development of better test systems for detecting and evaluating early toxic effects of chemicals occurring as environmental contaminants, and (3) extrapolating from animal test systems across species a...
متن کاملEnvironmental Biophysics Branch; Summary Statement
At the present time, the research programs of the Environmental Biophysics Branch cover essentially two areas-nonionizing radiation (microwaves) and noise (auditory and nonauditory effects). Two new programs-the biological effects of light and molecular biophysics-will be started in the very near future. It is the aim of scientists working in the microwave program to develop new microwave expos...
