This difference may account for faster elimination and reduced toxicity.2 PHARMACOKINETICS: Distribution rapidly and widely distributed into tissues3; may concentrate in red blood cells‚ whole blood 3 concentrations are approximately twice those of plasma cross blood brain barrier? no 3 volume of distribution 21-27

Though cis-platin is highly effective‚ its counterpart trans-platin is counterintuitively not (7). Trans-platin is highly reactive with the environments that lead to reaching the DNA‚ and this reactivity results in the totality of the administered compound becoming deactivated prior to reacting with the DNA (9). Also the DNA lesion caused by cis-platin on the 1‚2 intrastrand crosslinks between adjacent purines is an act that trans-platin cannot do when looking from a stereochemical perspective (9)

It shall also address health and safety issues related to the toxicity and eco-toxicity of biocides. It may also address questions relating to examination of the toxicity and eco-toxicity of chemical‚ biochemical and biological compounds whose use may have harmful consequences for human health and the environment. In addition‚ the Committee will address questions relating to

certain materials as food which can be pernicious. There are other forms of ocean pollution like oil spills and mining. Oil spills are considered to be the “most devastating effect” due to the crude oil being extremely difficult to remove [3]. The toxicity of the crude oil can leave marine animals trapped and in result‚ can be fatal. Ocean mining is drilling into the deepest parts of the ocean‚ which can impact the environment and increase toxic levels. If the drilling is not properly dealt with‚ then

positives are access of natural gases‚ reduce surface toxicity‚ lower energy costs‚ and supplies jobs. The access of the natural gases may come in handy when in the future when the natural gases become scarce again we will have access to lots of those types of natural gases and become very expensive again then we can sell some of them so we can make a little money off of it and so don’t have to buy the from other countries. Surface toxicity is all reduced because of fracking from all of the chemicals

Thus‚ why do many people against genetically modified foods. While genetically modified foods bring benefits‚ there are still several safety issues towards genetically modified foods. As for human health‚ the concerns for safety‚ allergenicity‚ toxicity‚ carcinogenicity‚ and altered nutritional quality of food are controversial. Due to the fact that GM contains the transfer of genes that may code for proteins not normally present‚ which means there exist unknown character will be more or less allergenic

changes may occur in the environment too. Such risks are serious enough to push authorities to stop the production of genetically modified food. Nature is much more important for people’s lives than GMOs. Genetically modified food can increase toxicity‚ most plants produce substances that are toxic to humans. Most of the plants that humans consume produce toxins at levels low enough that they do not produce any adverse health effects. Antibiotic resistance is another effect of genetically modified

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Pasteurization is the process of heating food‚ which is usually a liquid to a specific temperature for a predefined length of time and immediately cooling it after it is removed from the heat. Pasteurization relies on the principle that most harmful bacterial can be killed by heat. The most effective way to kill bacteria is boiling‚ but this compromises the flavor of the liquid. Pasteurization strikes a happy medium‚ keeping the flavor delicious
