Spheres of influence: no POPS. Persistent organic pollutants.
(ONFLICTING results have beeni reported with neonatal thymectomy in relation to several different chemical carcinogens given to animals by various routes. Some authors (Miller et al., 1963; Grant & Miller, 1965; Nomoto & Takeya, 1969) have shown that tumour induction could be increased in thymectomized animals when they were compared with a group that had had sham thymectomy. When thymectomized...
متن کاملVertex Pops and Popturns
This paper considers transformations of a planar polygon P according to two types of operations. A vertex pop (or a pop) reflects a vertex vi, i ∈ {1, . . . , n}, across the line through the two adjacent vertices vi−1 and vi+1 (where index arithmetic is modulo n). A popturn rotates vi in the plane by 180◦ about the midpoint of the line segment vi−1vi+1. Pops and popturns are polygon reconfigura...

متن کاملPersistent Organic Pollutants ("POPs")
Strictly speaking, all toxins entering the environment can be regarded as environmental poisons. Certain pollutants can, acting over long periods, harm living organisms even in low concentrations. This means that pollutants that are stable and thus persistent have a great ability to act as environmental poisons. Their stability means not only that their effects are long-lasting, but also that t...
