Chloroform is a nongenotoxic-cytotoxic carcinogen in rodents. As such, events related to cytotoxicity are the driving force for cancer induction. In this paper we extended an existing physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for chloroform to describe a plausible mechanism linking the hepatic metabolism of chloroform to hepatocellular killing and regenerative proliferation. The key as...

Chloroform has been reported to induce cancer in rodents after chronic administration of high doses by gavage. However, the interpretation of these findings is hampered by a lack of knowledge concerning the relative roles of genetic and nongenetic mechanisms in these bioassays. The present studies were carried out in male B6C3F1 mice in order to investigate the potential of chloroform to induce...

the electrochemical behavior of nifedipine (i), nitrendipine(ii) and their photodegradation products has been studied by employing electrochemical techniques in chloroform and in 1:4 mixture of chloroform-isopropanol using piperidinium perchlorate (ppc) as supporting electrolyte. it has been shown that i and ii undergo in a 4e, 4h+ irreversible reduction reaction, while the reduction product, p...

the interaction between 4, 7, 13, 16, 21, 24 - hexaoxa-1,10 - diazabicyclo [8.8.8] hexacosane (c222) and 7,7,8,8- teracyanoquinodimethane (tcnq) has been studied in chloroform at 25°c. the results indicate a two step mechanism. at the first step, two adducts (assign as p1 and p2) are formed through equilibrium reactions. in continue and through nonequilibrium reactions the adducts are converted...

in this study, nano-tio2 was employed for the adsorption of chloroform from aqueous solution in batch equilibrium experiments to investigate its adsorption properties. the effects of ph, initial chloroform concentration and nano-tio2 dosage were also investigated. optimal conditions for chloroform removal by nano-tio2 have been then identified. results of equilibrium experiments showed that the...

this study aimed to assess the effect of chloroform, eucalyptol and orange oil solvents on the microhardness of human root dentin.sixty-eight single-rooted single-canal extracted human premolar teeth were used. tooth crowns were separated from the roots at the cementoenamel junction (cej). roots were buccolingually sectioned into mesial and distal halves. specimens were randomly divided into 5 ...

" Case 3. On the 6th of March, 1852, countenance increased, the pulse was no I had occasion to remove the finger of a longer perceptible, and the sounds of the robust, healthy-looking young man, in the heart could not be satisfactorily heard. Royal Infirmary. He was already under During the whole of this time, artificial the influence of chloroform when I entered the room, and as there had been...
