the acute intravenous toxicities of a selection of three potential long-acting local anaesthetics belonging to the series of2- phenoxyethyldialkylamine were determined in mice. two of the compounds were tertiary amines and the third a quaternary ammonium derivative.the i.v. median lethal dose, (ldso) of one of the tertiary compounds, 21a [n, n- diethyl-2- (2,6- diisopropyl) ethyl amine hydrochl...

In this study, the branch, leaves, flowers, roots and mixed all parts of different nine Euphorbia species were analyzed for their trace element contents by using ICP-MS. The samples were digested by concentrated nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide in a microwave by ICP-MS before the analysis. The accuracy and precision of the method was evaluated by CRM 1573a Tomato Leaves. Trace element contents...

Background: Industrial development has caused the release of various pollutants including heavy metals into the environment. These toxic compounds are extremely dangerous to living beings and the environment due to their non-biodegradability, severe toxicity, carcinogenicity, the ability to be accumulated in nature and the ability to contaminate groundwater and surface water. The aim of the pre...

In recent years, environmental pollution by coal mining is a long-established human activity affecting all levels of life with various environmental impacts by generating heavy metals. The presence of heavy metals even in trace amount is toxic and detrimental to all living organisms. The coal mine area in Bokaro is one of the “Toxic Hotspot” in India. Bacteria have evolved uptake and efflux mec...

Background and objectives: Many members of the Amaryllidaceae are regarded as toxic. The toxic constituents that occur in the whole family are referred to as the Amaryllidaceae alkaloids. The main aim of this study was the identification of alkaloid compounds from Galanthus transcaucasicus Fomin, a medicinal plant from Amaryllidaceae. Methods: Planar a...

human activities have continuously increased the level of heavy metal ions circulating in the environment. it is important to understand the tolerance of plant species to high concentrations of heavy metals. very little is known on the response of eucalyptus species to zn and cu toxic concentrations eucalyptus camaldulensis, e. microtheca, and e. occidentalis seeds were grown in silt and irriga...

we used wild boars and roe deer as biomonitors of lead (pb), cadmium (cd), and mercury (hg)contamination in two major industrial sites in poland with different levels of toxic metal pollution. masurianlakes district, located far away from industry, was used as the reference site. levels of pb, cd, and hg in liver,kidney and muscle samples and in the stomach content of the animals were determine...

Medicinal plants are sources of different chemical substances with different biological activities in living organism. Some of the chemical compounds socalled “heavy metals”, can be dangerous because they tend to bioaccumulate and transported in all biota via the food chain. The aim of our study was to investigate the concentration of heavy metals in commercially available tea samples purchased...
