Abstract
A radiological concern for workers at heavy water reactor nuclear facilities is the hazard presented by tritium (H) and C. Radioactive methane is one of many potential H and C containing chemicals to which Nuclear Energy Workers (NEWs) may be exposed. Current dosimetric models for H- and C-methane, recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), are based on the assumption that 1% of methane is absorbed following its inhalation. Of this 1%, all H is converted immediately to tritiated water and C is converted immediately to CO2 (50%) and organically bound carbon (50%). In the study, rats were exposed to methane standards (H-methane and C-methane) mixed with breathing air to give a final concentration of 0.27% methane and resulting in final activity concentrations of 4.2 GBq m and 0.88 GBq m for H and C, respectively. This corresponds to exposure estimates of 580 kBq g and 120 kBq g. Simultaneous exposure to H- and C-methane allowed for the direct comparison of the retention of these radionuclides and removed uncertainties concerning their relative uptake and retention. The results demonstrate that the total methane uptake from the inhaled dose was threefold less than the 1% methane uptake predicted by the ICRP dosimetric models for H- and C-methane, with the H concentration being substantially higher than anticipated in the liver. This study provided data suggesting that current ICRP dosimetric methane models overestimate the fraction of H- and C-methane that is absorbed following inhalation and assisted in providing information to better understand the metabolism of inhaled H and C radiolabeled methane.

Methanogenic toxicity in anaerobic digesters treating municipal wastewater. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2009; 100:97-103.

Abstract
In upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) digesters treating raw sewage at low temperatures, the sludge progressively lost methanogenic activity, indicating the possibility of methanogenic activity inhibition caused by wastewater constituents. To check this fact, batch and semi-continuous methanogenic toxicity assays were carried out with raw and centrifuged sewage. Permanent methanogenic toxicity on anaerobic sludge of approximately 50% was found when the sludge exposure to wastewater was renewed in a semi-continuous way. A stronger methanogenic inhibition of about 70-100% was observed when an active anaerobic sludge was exposed to mixed liquor from the UASB digester treating municipal wastewater. Suspended solids removal from sewage slightly reduced methanogenic toxicity. Effective concentration of municipal wastewater that caused a 50% reduction in methanogenic activity was estimated to be in the range of 150-200 mg CODl(-1). As methanogenic inhibition appeared to be related to remaining COD, higher methanogenic toxicity in digesters operating with low conversion efficiency will be expected.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The effects of prolonged macrophage depletion on haematological parameters were investigated in aged rats and compared with those in young ones. METHODS Four weekly i.v. injections of dichloromethylene diphosphonate-containing liposomes (Cl2MDP-CL) were employed to achieve a prolonged depletion of bone marrow (BM) and spleen macrophages. The number of BM macrophages was then assessed by flow cytometry, whereas the spleen clearance function was judged by the elimination of oxidised red blood cells (RBC). Haematological parameters and signs of RBC ageing (reduced MCV, increased density and augmented 4.1a/4.1b membrane protein ratio) were determined. Finally, the recovery from phlebotomy-induced acute anaemia was investigated. RESULTS Following the Cl2MDP-CL treatment, in comparison with young rats, the aged animals showed: (i) reduced numbers of BM macrophages; (ii) greater impairment of spleen clearance function; (iii) similar anaemic condition and signs of RBC ageing; (iv) greater increase in white blood cell (WBC) numbers (mainly neutrophils). In addition, whereas aged control rats showed a recovery from phlebotomy-induced acute anaemia which was similar to that of the untreated young animals, in the aged-treated rats, a significantly diminished/delayed restoration of RBC, Hb and reticulocyte to normal values was observed, accompanied by a significantly higher increase in WBC numbers than in the other groups of animals. CONCLUSION Haematological abnormalities because of Cl2MDP-CL-induced macrophage depletion are potentiated in aged rats in which the BM regenerative potential of the erythroid lineage as well as the clearance function of the spleen appear compromised. Thus, in aged rats, macrophage dysfunction is likely to interfere with erythroid homeostasis particularly during haemopoietic stress.

Abstract
The presence of methane on lactulose breath test among irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) subjects is highly associated with the constipation-predominant form. Therefore, we set out to determine whether methane gas can alter small intestinal motor function. In dogs, small intestinal fistulae were created to permit measurement of intestinal transit. Using a radiolabel, we evaluated transit during infusion of room air and subsequently methane. In this model, small intestinal infusion of methane produced a slowing of transit in all dogs by an average of 59%. In a second experiment, guinea pig ileum was pinned into an organ bath for the study of contractile activity in response to brush strokes applied to the mucosa. The force of contraction was measured both orad and aborad to the stimulus. The experiment was repeated while the bath was gassed with methane. Contractile activities orad and aborad to the stimulus were significantly augmented by methane compared with room air (P < 0.05). In a third experiment, humans with IBS who had undergone a small bowel motility study were compared such that subjects who produced methane on lactulose breath test were compared with those producing hydrogen. The motility index was significantly higher in methane-producing IBS patients (1,851 +/- 861) compared with hydrogen producers (1,199 +/- 301) (P < 0.05). Therefore, methane, a gaseous by-product of intestinal bacteria, slows small intestinal transit and appears to do so by augmenting small bowel contractile activity.

Abstract
Current dosimetric models for radioactive methane assume 1% of inhaled methane is absorbed, all 3H activity is converted immediately to [3H]H2O, and 14C activity is converted immediately to [14C]CO2 (50%) and organically bound carbon (50%). Results of a pilot study using rats to test these models suggest the models overestimate uptake but underestimate organic fixation of 3H and 14C, especially in liver. Also, the biokinetic properties of organically bound 3H and 14C in liver were markedly different from other tissues. Preliminary dose estimates based on observed uptake and organic fixation of label suggest current methane models likely overestimate radiation doses from radioactive methane by 3- to 10-fold.

Abstract
Norethisterone (NET) is a 19-nortestosterone derivative with progestagenic and some androgenic activity, which was used in the first generation of contraceptives. NET was succeeded by levonorgestrel (LNG) and later on by desogestrel (DSG) and gestodene (GSD). Although these latter two progestins had increased potency, there was still androgenicity with gestodene and to a lesser extent with desogestrel. New progestins were synthesized in order to further enhance progestagenic and to reduce androgenic activity. Four different chemical moieties were introduced in position 17 of 19-nortestosterone, viz. 17alpha-ethynyl, five- and six-membered spiromethylene ethers, and a six-membered-spiromethylene lactone. In combination with these structures seven different substituents were added at position 11, i.e. methylene, methyl, ethyl, ethenyl, ethynyl, 2-propenyl and 1-propynyl. All substituents except for methylene occupied the 11beta-position. All these 32 compounds were synthesized and analysed in vitro and in vivo against etonogestrel (ETG, 3-keto-desogestrel), the biologically active metabolite of desogestrel. Their relative binding potency to progesterone (PR), androgen (AR) and estrogen (ER) receptors were determined in cell lysates of human breast tumor MCF-7 cells and to glucocorticoid (GR) receptors in that of human leukemic IM-9 cells. Moreover, their relative agonistic activities were assessed in Chinese hamster ovary cell-based transactivation assays. All in vivo activities were determined in McPhail (progestagenic), ovulation inhibition (progestagenic and estrogenic), Hershberger (androgenic), hormone screening (glucocorticoid and estrogen) and Allen-Doisy (estrogenic) tests after oral and for the McPhail test also after subcutaneous administration. The progestagenic binding and transactivation potencies of all compounds in the three 17-spiro series were higher than those of the corresponding analogues in the 17alpha-ethynyl series. None of the compounds showed estrogenic or clear androgenic binding and transactivation potential except for a six-membered-spiromethylene lactone with a propynyl group. This compound showed strong androgenic binding. The glucocorticoid binding and transactivation were very low for the compounds with the 17alpha-ethynyl and the five-membered-spiromethylene ether groups, whereas both six-membered-spiro series showed, clearly with methyl and ethynyl substituents, and less pronounced with methylene and ethenyl, higher binding and transactivation values. For the 17alpha-ethynyl series, the McPhail test showed high potencies with methylene, methyl and ethenyl substituents after oral treatment or with propenyl after subcutaneous administration. The introduction of the spiro substituents in position 17 led to high potencies for other 11-substituents as well. Besides methyl, also ethyl, ethynyl and propynyl were potent substituents. With ovulation inhibition tests, the ethyl, ethenyl and ethynyl substituents were the more potent compounds in all four series. However, compounds with methyl or ethynyl additions appeared to be glucocorticoidal in the hormone screening test irrespective of the 17-substituent, while with the three spiro series even methylene and ethenyl groups became active. Androgenicity was only observed at dose levels at or above 5 mg/kg, which is 2.5-fold weaker than ETG. Moreover, estrogenicity appeared negligible with the three spiro series, while with the 17alpha-ethynyl series methyl, ethyl, ethenyl and ethynyl substituents, a very high estrogenic potential was assessed. Based on the high efficacy and low side-effects, the following compounds show a high selectivity: 17alpha-ethynyl with ethyl, ethenyl and 2-propenyl substituents, six-membered spiromethylene ether with ethyl and six-membered-spiromethylene lactone with ethyl, 2-propenyl or 1-propynyl substituents.

Abstract
Matrices loaded with cytarabine were prepared by compression of the tailor made triblock copolymers C17E227C17 and C17E454C17 (where C=methylene and E=oxyethylene). Observations of the swelling characteristics of copolymer matrices on immersion in distilled water indicated an increase in the thickness of the gel layer around the matrices following ingress of water into the matrices. The in vitro release of cytarabine was characterised from matrices of different molar mass and with different known drug loadings. The release of cytarabine from the copolymer matrices was predominantly by a Fickian diffusion mechanism; the release rate was dependent on drug loading and independent of copolymer molar mass.

Abstract
Male and female Long-Evans rats were housed in inhalation chambers and exposed to vapors of nitromethane (NM) at either 100 or 200 ppm. The animals were exposed 7 hr per day, 5 days per week for 2 years. Control groups of rats were also housed in a similar inhalation chamber, but NM was not introduced into the chamber. The animals were observed daily for signs of pharmacologic or toxicologic effect and body weights were recorded periodically. At the 2-year termination of the exposure period, clinical laboratory examinations (serum chemistry and hematology) were performed on selected animals and all surviving animals were sacrificed. All animals were necropsied and subjected to a thorough histopathologic examination. During the study there were no pharmacologic effects from exposure to NM at either 100 or 200 ppm. There was no effect on mortality on either sex at either exposure level. Body weights of male rats exposed to NM were not significantly different from those of control rats, but the body weights of female rats of both exposure groups were slightly less than their controls. There was no effect of exposure of rats of either sex to either level of NM on hematology. There were no clinically significant effects on serum chemistry. There were no effects of exposure to NM on organ weights. There were no significant differences in the nonneoplastic or neoplastic pathology related to exposure to NM.

Abstract
A major toxicological issue today is the possibility of unusual toxicity due to interaction of toxic chemicals upon environmental or occupational exposures to two or more chemicals, at ordinarily harmless levels individually. While some laboratory models exist for such interactions for the simplest case of only two chemicals, progress in this area has suffered for want of a model where the two interactants are individually nontoxic. One such model is available, where prior exposure to nontoxic levels of the pesticide Kepone (chlordecone) results in a 67-fold amplication of CCl4 lethality in rats. Extensive hepatotoxicity observed in this interaction is characterized by histopathological alterations, perturbation of related biochemical parameters and is followed by complete hepatic failure. This propensity for chlordecone to potentiate hepatotoxicity of halomethanes such as CCl4, CHCl3, and BrCCl3 has been a subject of intense study to unravel the underlying mechanism. Mechanisms such as induction of microsomal cytochrome P-450 by chlordecone and greater lipid peroxidation are inadequate to explain the remarkably powerful potentiation of halomethane toxicity. Compelling experimental evidence supports the hypothesis that hepatocellular division during early time points after the administration of CCl4 is an important determinant of the progression (or repair of it) of the liver injury and consequent destruction (or restoration) of the hepatolobular architecture and function. This paper advances a hypothesis for the mechanism of hepatotoxic and lethal effect of CCl4 as being primarily related to the accelerated progression of liver injury due to suppressed hepatocellular regeneration and hepatolobular restoration. This is in contrast to the widely accepted putative mechanism, one which invokes only bioactivation followed by runaway lipid peroxidation as the events determining the course of the progressive phase of liver injury. The concept being advanced in this paper accepts bioactivation (and perhaps lipid peroxidation) as the primary initiating events of cell injury, but maintains that they are not the determinants of the progressive phase of liver injury. The biological issue of whether the cells are incapacitated from regenerating is the determinant of the progression of liver injury, and therefore, the ultimate outcome of hepatotoxicity and lethality.

Abstract
The influence of molecular diffusion on gas-mixing during conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) and high frequency ventilation (HFV) was studied by observing the wash-in of six poorly soluble, inert gases in arterial blood. Anesthetized dogs were ventilated either with CMV or HFV. Following a step change in inspired gas composition, the increase in arterial concentrations of hydrogen, helium, methane, ethane, isobutane, and sulfur hexafluoride was determined by gas chromatography. The relative gas diffusivities encompassed a range of almost one order of magnitude. Propane, present in inspired gas during both the control and wash-in phases, served as an internal reference for calculation of blood tracer concentrations. The wash-in of all six inert gases followed a single exponential time course during both CMV and HFV. The rate of wash-in of each gas decreased with increasing molecular weight (MW). The relationship of rate constants to a measure of relative diffusivity (MW-0.5) was significantly different than zero for both types of ventilation. The slope of this relationship was three times larger for CMV than HFV, indicating that molecular diffusion has a greater role in gas mixing during ventilation with large tidal volumes. Diffusion has a minor role in gas mixing during high frequency ventilation with small tidal volumes. Demonstration of the presence of gas separation secondary to molecular diffusion during HFV is enhanced by measuring wash-in, rather than wash-out, of inert gases because gas separation is likely to be obscured as exhaled gases pass through the well-mixed central airways during gas wash-out.

Abstract
Male 3-month-old Wistar rats dosed i.p. with 200 mg/kg of nitromethane or -ethane showed increased acid proteinase activity in the brain 4 h after the injection. The change was accompanied by a marginal increase in the cerebral glutathione concentration. Nitroethane caused enhanced epoxide hydrolase and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase activity in the hepatic microsomal fraction up to 48 h while 7-ethoxycoumarin o-deethylase decreased. These biochemical changes were accompanied by proliferation of smooth endoplasmic reticulum and degranulation and disorganization of the rough endoplasmic reticulum of the nitroethane-exposed liver cells. The hepatic effects of nitromethane were restricted to decreased cytochrome c reductase activity with proliferation of smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The results point at limited peroxidative damage possibly involving reduction of the nitrogroup.

Abstract
Breathing 79% nitrous oxide (N2O) in oxygen increased the rate of accumulation of bowel gas during intraluminal bowel segment infusions of hydrogen, methane (CH4), air, or carbon dioxide (CO2) in four pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs more than did breathing 100% oxygen. A N2O-associated increase in the volume of naturally produced intestinal gas in five halothane-anesthetized ponies corroborated the findings in the dog studies. In a second group of four dogs a bolus of CH4 or CO2 was injected into the bowel lumen. When the dogs breathed O2 the bowel gas volume decreased. Gas was virtually absent in the CO2-containing segment within 20 minutes. Breathing N2O increased the volume of the segments containing CH4 while the CO2 segments decreased less rapidly than during O2 breathing. Breathing O2 after 30 minutes of N2O breathing caused little change in the rate of decrease in CO2 segment volumes. However, the CH4 segment volume ceased to increase and eventually returned toward control volumes.

Abstract
Methyl fluorosulfonate (Magic Methyl), an active methylating agent used by research chemists, was studied for acute oral toxicity, acute inhalation toxicity, ocular irritation, and dermal irritation. This compound is very hazardous and may have been responsible for at least one human death. The results of these studies confirmed that Magic Methyl is markedly toxic by all routes studied and particularly by the inhalation route since the LC50 value for rats was found to be between 5 and 6 ppm.
