In this study total of 150 samples emulsion type meat products (Luncheon & Frankfurter) (75 each) were collected from local and supermarkets in Giza governorate, Egypt. Samples subjected to determination residue antibiotics, zeranol, trenbolone, heavy metals (Cadmium, lead, Zinc Arsenic) pesticides (OPPs OCPs). The proved that the incidence percent organophosphorus arsenic zero all samples, zer...

To study cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 2B6 contribution to methoxychlor metabolism within human liver microsomes and to initiate an investigation of CYP2B6 protein expression, we developed a polyclonal antibody targeted to a 20-residue peptide within that protein. The antibody was found to be highly sensitive and monospecific for CYP2B6 on immunoblots. Although many immunological studies have describe...

BACKGROUND Incidence of childhood leukemia in industrialized countries rose significantly during 1975-2004, and the reasons for the increase are not understood. OBJECTIVES We used carpet dust as an exposure indicator to examine the risk of childhood leukemia in relation to residential exposure to persistent organochlorine chemicals: six polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners and the pestici...

The disruption of the reproductive system of male and female animals in the wild has been attributed to environmental chemicals (xenobiotics). The effects seen mirror alterations one might anticipate if the steroid hormone-dependent processes that regulate these systems were impaired. To determine whether xenobiotics (present at a concentration of 100 microM) exert their action through steroid-...

The process of pesticide (γ-HCH and inactive isomers αand β-HCH, DDT, DMDT, fenitrothion and chlorfenvinphos) removal from industrial wastewater using Fenton's reaction has been analysed. Most of the pesticides were completely degraded at H2O2 concentration of 2.5 g/dm; however, only at 5 g/dm were all the examined pesticides completely removed and the results repeatable. The most effective pro...
