cresol/atrophy

Sodium p-Chloro-m-Cresol, p-Chloro-m-Cresol (PCMC), Mixed Cresols, m-Cresol, o-Cresol, p-Cresol, Isopropyl Cresols, Thymol, Chlorothymol, o-Cymen-5-ol, and Carvacrol are substituted phenols used as cosmetic biocides/preservatives and/or fragrance ingredients. Only PCMC, Thymol, and o-Cymen-5-ol are

Indoxyl sulphate (IS) and p-cresyl sulphate (PCS) are two protein bound uraemic toxins accumulated in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and associated with adverse outcomes. The purpose of this study isto evaluate the effect of the new activated charcoal, CharXgen, on renal function protection and

A 42-year-old man attempted suicide by ingesting about 150 mL of a saponated cresol solution containing about 50% cresol. His serum aminotransferase concentrations were elevated, and a coagulopathy was present at the time of admission, 15 hours after ingestion. The hyperaminotransferasemia and

BACKGROUND Cresols are petroleum byproducts that are used to make resins, solvents, disinfectants, fragrances, and wood preservatives. We performed tests to determine if cresols caused cancer in rats or mice. METHODS We fed groups of 50 male rats and female mice cresols mixed into their feed. Male

Cresols are monomethyl derivatives of phenol, and are found as constituents of coal tar, in various industrial solvents and resins, and in some essential oils. In 28-day toxicity studies, F344/N rats and B6C3F1 mice of both sexes were given o-cresol, m-cresol, p-cresol, or m/p-cresol (60:40) at

4,4'-Thiobis(6- t -butyl- m -cresol) (TBBC) is used in the rubber and plastics industries as an antioxidant. TBBC is also used as a stabilizer in polyethylene and polyolefin packaging materials for foodstuffs. Toxicology and carcinogenesis studies were conducted by administering TBBC (99% pure) in

The effect of resistant starch (RS) and konjac mannan (KM) to maintain and improve the large intestinal environment was compared. Wistar SPF rats were fed the following diets for 4 weeks: negative control diet (C diet), tyrosine-supplemented positive control diet (T diet), and luminacoid

Adult female B6C3F1 mice were gavaged with 4,4'-thiobis-(6-t-butyl-m-cresol) (TBBC) in corn oil at doses of 10, 100, or 200 mg/kg daily for 14 consecutive days. There was no overt toxicity, as manifested by grossly observable behavioral changes, decreased growth rate over the exposure period, or

BACKGROUND The uremic syndrome is characterized by a deterioration of kidney function due to the accumulation of uremic toxins. Currently, 100 different uremic toxins have been identified. Uremic toxins are particularly difficult to remove by conventional dialysis treatments and are the major causes

Authors present some of their results from an epidemiological study on the effect of fenitrothion (Metation EK-50) on the organism of occupationally exposed workers in the production of this preparation and in female workers in the packing room during a 5-year period. The results of clinical

The effect of salinity over granular biomass treating a mixture of aromatic compounds (phenol, o-cresol and p-nitrophenol) was evaluated in a continuous airlift reactor. To mimic an industrial wastewater, increasing concentrations (from 2.0 to 29.0 g salts L(-1)) of a mixture of salts (MgSO4, NaCl,

The plant growth-promoting effect of Pseudomonas putida S-313 is associated with its ability to desulfurize arylsulfonates. To understand this further, other plant-associated bacteria able to desulfurize a range of arylsulfonates were isolated from the rhizospheres of winter and spring barley. The

The prevalence of end-stage renal diseases is currently on the rise globally, and finding the way to curb this tide is urgently needed. Tubulointerstitial fibrosis is a common pathway for essentially all the nephropathy categories known to date, and the manifestations of renal fibrosis include

The influence of auxiliary substances and pH on the chemical transformations of insulin in pharmaceutical formulation, including various hydrolytic and intermolecular cross-linking reactions, was studied. Bacteriostatic agents had a profound stabilizing effect--phenol > m-cresol > methylparaben--on

Thymol and carvacrol from the class of monoterpene phenols are one of the most potent plant essential oil components possessing antimicrobial effects. Known for their wide bioactive spectrum, these positional isomers of isopropyl cresol deplete ergosterol content, compromise membrane permeability,
