Download or read book Carcinogens and Anticarcinogens in the Human Diet written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1996-03-12 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite increasing knowledge of human nutrition, the dietary contribution to cancer remains a troubling question. Carcinogens and Anticarcinogens assembles the best available information on the magnitude of potential cancer riskâ€"and potential anticarcinogenic effectâ€"from naturally occurring chemicals compared with risk from synthetic chemical constituents. The committee draws important conclusions about diet and cancer, including the carcinogenic role of excess calories and fat, the anticarcinogenic benefit of fiber and other substances, and the impact of food additive regulation. The book offers recommendations for epidemiological and diet research. Carcinogens and Anticarcinogens provides a readable overview of issues and addresses critical questions: Does diet contribute to an appreciable proportion of human cancer? Are there significant interactions between carcinogens and anticarcinogens in the diet? The volume discusses the mechanisms of carcinogenic and anticarcinogenic properties and considers whether techniques used to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of synthetics can be used with naturally occurring chemicals. The committee provides criteria for prioritizing the vast number of substances that need to be tested. Carcinogens and Anticarcinogens clarifies the issues and sets the direction for further investigations into diet and cancer. This volume will be of interest to anyone involved in food and health issues: policymakers, regulators, researchers, nutrition professionals, and health advocates.

Download or read book Aliphatic and Polyhalogenated Carcinogens written by Yin-Tak Woo and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical Induction of Cancer: Structural Bases and Biological Mechanisms, Volume IIIB: Aliphatic and Polyhalogenated Carcinogens covers environmentally and occupationally significant carcinogens of industrial origins. The book discusses the structure-activity relationships, metabolism, and environmental significance of the halogenated linear alkanes and alkenes and the halogenated cycloalkanes; and cycloalkene pesticides, biphenyls, and related aromatics. The text also describes the structure-activity relationships, metabolism, and environmental significance of the halogenated phenoxy acids, aromatic ethers, dibenzofurans, and dibenzo-p-dioxins; and ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, dioxane, and related compounds. The structure-activity relationships, metabolism, and environmental significance of phenols and phenolic compounds; nitroalkanes and nitroalkenes; and acetamide, dimethylcarbamyl chloride, and related compounds thiocarbonyl compounds are also encompassed. The book further tackles the structure-activity relationships, metabolism, and environmental significance if fatty acids, detergents, and other surfactants with oncogenic potential. The text then looks into the effect of chemical reactivity, molecular geometry, and metabolism on carcinogenic activity. Chemists, geneticists, and those involved in cancer research will find the book invaluable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More foods are now packaged in containers designed for direct cooking or heating, which encourages movement of substances into the foods. Indirect Food Additives and Polymers: Migration and Toxicology is an impressive review of basic regulatory, toxicological, and other scientific information necessary to identify, characterize, measure, and predict the hazards of nearly 2,000 of the plastic-like materials employed in packaging and identified by the FDA as indirect food additives. It presents the data underlying federal regulations, previously unavailable in one volume, and is a convenient resource for anyone working in the large number of related disciplines.

Download or read book Air Toxics and Risk Assessment written by Edward J. Calabrese and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1991-03-25 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike most books, this one actually does risk assessments for you for over 110 chemicals that are confirmed or probable air toxics. All chemicals are analyzed with a scientifically sound methodology-outlined in the book-to assess public health risk associated with exposure to air toxics. Methodology will allow you to properly handle all air toxic health concerns within a practical decision-free framework. This permits the application of methodology to any new chemical. Each chemical or compound is organized by synonym, molecular weight, molecular formula, AALG, occupational limits, drinking water limits, toxicity profile and indexed by CAS number, and synonyms.

Download or read book Handbook of Toxic Properties of Monomers and Additives written by Victor O. Sheftel and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1995-04-18 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering nearly 800 potential food and water contaminants, this comprehensive handbook is a complete encyclopedia of the toxic effects of plastic ingredients. It is international in scope, covering all available toxicological data that fits existing requirements, including Russian toxicology data previously unknown to the West. The handbook will be helpful when evaluating toxic properties of plastic materials currently in use. It also provides a perspective on materials containing previously investigated ingredients. The handbook extends beyond the realm of toxicology by including information on a number of the widespread food and water contaminants, heavy metals, and solvents. It will also be helpful when evaluating toxic properties not only of existing materials but also of future materials that contain previously investigated ingredients.
