Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biochemical Mechanisms of Paraquat Toxicity presents the proceedings of the First Iowa Symposium on Toxic Mechanisms that was held from June 28-29, 1976. The symposium brought together a diverse group of investigators consisting of chemists, pharmacologists, pathologists, biochemists, and toxicologists from the United States, Canada, and Europe who have been interested in the mechanism of paraquat toxicity. The book includes papers on the following topics: the general features of toxic lung injury and observations with paraquat and diquat; electron transfer reactions of paraquat; the pathological effects of paraquat on the human lung; and the importance of oxygen and pulmonary alveolar surfactant in lung injury by paraquat. Other papers deal with the effects of paraquat on kidney and liver function in experimental animals; lipid peroxidation as a proposed mechanism for paraquat toxicity; pulmonary fibrosis as a consequence of paraquat toxicity; biochemical changes in lungs exposed to paraquat; effects of selenium deficiency on paraquat toxicity; and treatment for paraquat poisoning.

Download or read book Systems Genetics written by Klaus Schughart and published by Humana. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on the use of system genetic methods and the use of murine models to study the role of gene variants and environmental factors on human health and disease—what is now often called personalized or precision health care. The protocols in this book will help readers analyze genetic causes of heritable variation across a wide range of systems and traits using rodent models. The chapters in this book are separated into three sections that cover: 1) resources for systems genetics; 2) tools for analysis and integration in systems genetics; and 3) systems genetics use cases. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and tools, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Practical and thorough, Systems Genetics: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in this diverse field.

Download or read book Insecticides for Preventing Insect caused Mortality of Paraquat treated Slash Pines written by Edward P. Merkel and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: One- and two-percent concentratons of lindane, carbaryl, chlorpyrifos, and chlorpyrifos-methyl were tested for their efficacy in reducing or preventing bark beetle and wood borer attacks in north Florida slash pine stands that had been treated with paraquat. Results from a series of five field experiments showed that the cumulative mortality of trees unprotected by insecticides 1 year after the indicated month of paraquat application was 63 percent (June1976), 15 percent (November 1976), 13 percent (February 1977), 83 percent (April 1977), and 40 percent (June 1977). Lindane reduced tree mortality by 50 to 100 percent whereas the other insecticides produced erratic results among experiments. Results also indicate that the season of paraquat treatment is correlated with insect infestation, tree mortality, and subsequent efficacy of insecticides. Recommendations are made for combining pest management procedures with lightwood production techniques that will result in the highest oleoresin yields.
