Dünyanın %71'i denizlerle kaplıdır. Denizcilik, sunduğu ekonomik maliyetler nedeniyle uluslararası ticari taşımacılıkta en çok tercih edilen sektördür. Enerji, tıbbi ekipman, ilaç, gıda ve benzeri hammadde ürünlerin nakliyesi çoğunlukla deniz yoluyla yapılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada; Denizcilerin bilgi birikimleri ile çalışma performansları gemiye uyumları arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amaçlanmak...

Improving the prediction of chemical toxicity is a goal common to both environmental health research and pharmaceutical drug development. To improve safety detection assays, it is critical to have a reference set of molecules with well-defined toxicity annotations for training and validation purposes. Here, we describe a collaboration between safety researchers at Pfizer and the research team a...

About 70 million chemicals have been synthesized, as registered in Chemical Abstracts Service. It is not really clear how many are found in consumer products and the environment. Why not? First, because registrations are only required for certain production volumes. Second, no organization or entity tracks increases in production volumes. I am not aware, for example, of very many new chemicals ...

To protect the health of human and environment, the European Union implemented the REACH regulation for chemical substances. REACH is an acronym for Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals. Under REACH, the authorities have the task of assessing chemical substances, especially those that might pose a risk to human health or environment. The work under REACH is scie...

Chemical Process Plant as a complex system requires good scientific knowledge on different issues including Process Safety Analysis (PSA). Fuzzy logic is the collective name for “Fuzzy set analysis” and “Possibility theory”, able to use random or approximate data in the Process Safety Analysis. This paper explains the impact of fuzzy set theory for basic tools used in Process Safety Analysis. I...

Subsequent to submitting this letter, the University of California, San Francisco, Program on Reproductive Health and the Environment (T.W. and P.S.) received...

The purpose of a Safety Data Sheet (SDS), formerly known as Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), is to provide information on the hazards of working with a chemical and procedures that should be used to ensure safety. State and Federal law require that employers obtain an SDS for each hazardous substance they use or store and make the SDS available to employees. The PI/instructor is responsible ...
