Chronic Arsenic Toxicity: Statistical Study of the Relationships Between Urinary Arsenic, Selenium and Antimony
(Blacksmith Institute, 2012-06)
Background: The groundwater of Argentina’s Chaco plain presents arsenic levels above those suitable for human consumption. Studies suggest skin disorders among local populations caused by arsenic intake. The relationship ...
Profile of urinary arsenic metabolites during pregnancy
(US DEPT HEALTH HUMAN SCIENCES PUBLIC HEALTH SCIENCE, 2003)
Chronic exposure to inorganic arsenic (In-As) from drinking water is associated with different health effects, including skin, lung, bladder, and kidney cancer as well as vascular and possibly reproductive effects. In-As ...
Risk Analysis of Acute Or Chronic Exposure to Arsenic of the Inhabitants in a District of Buenos Aires, Argentina
(International Centre for Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems SDEWES, 2016-01)
The arsenic occurrence in the water constitutes a serious world health concern due to its toxicity. Depending on the intensity and duration of exposure, this element can be acutely lethal or may have a wide range of health ...
Bioaccumulation and acute toxicity of As(III) and As(V) in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
(2019-02-01)
The distribution of arsenic in the different tissues of tilapia fish is determined by the exposure time and the depuration rate. The mechanisms of toxicity/carcinogenicity depend on the arsenic species involved in the ...
Melatonin Protective Role in Mouse Cauda Epipidymal Spermatozoa Damage Induced by Sodium Arsenite
(Soc Chilena Anatomia, 2013-12-01)
We evaluated the sperm parameters such as cauda epididymis weight, sperm count, sperm morphology and sperm DNA stability of adult CF-1 male mice treated daily (oral exposure) with the toxic sodium arsenite (As, 7.0 mg/kg/body ...
Inter‐and intra-stock bioaccumulation of anionic arsenic species in an endangered catfish from South American estuaries: risk assessment through consumption
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2020-04)
Monomethylarsonic acid (MMA), dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), inorganic arsenic (iAs), and non-toxic species (i.e. arsenobetaine) were determined by HPLC-ICP-MS as mg kg−1 wet weight in muscle, liver and gill of catfish (Genidens ...
Arsenic and water quality challenges in South America
(Springer Netherlands, 2010)
The presence of arsenic in soils and water is a threat to public health and agricultural activities because this toxic element poses contamination risks to plants, animals, and humans. Central Argentina (northern area of ...
Melatonin Protective Role in Mouse Cauda Epipidymal Spermatozoa Damage Induced by Sodium Arsenite
(Soc Chilena Anatomia, 2014)
Monitoring of toxicity of As(V) solutions by AMPHITOX test without and with treatment with zerovalent iron nanoparticles
(Elsevier Science, 2018-06)
Changes in toxicity of As(V) solutions from acute to chronic exposure have been evaluated by the AMPHITOX test. This test employs Rhinella arenarum, a widely distributed toad in Argentine areas. LOEC values were 6.37 and ...
