Published On: July 26, 2022 | Pages: 001 - 007

Author(s): Bernard Omokheshi Adele*, Adeyinka Joseph Alonge and Elsie Olufunke Adewoye

Codeine, an opiate derivate, which induces pleasure and euphoria in users, is contained in many OTC cough syrups as dextromethorphan. In 2011, its abuse has been reported in Nigeria from consumption of codeine-based cough syrup such as Benylin containing codeine syrup (BCS). Thereafter, the neurobehavioural alteration was reported with BCS in mice. 45 Swiss male mice ...

Heavy metals and pollutants are gaining more and more attention nowadays. Heavy metals at high concentrations have an undesirable effect on soil, plants, animals, and humans. The high concentrations of these minerals reduce the activity of microbiological organisms, which affect the quality of the soil and is reflected in the inhibition of the physiological activity o ...

Background: Human exposure to xenobiotics, especially priority heavy metals (lead, cadmium, arsenic, mercury and chromium), is unavoidable because of their involvement in industrial applications, accumulation in the environment over time and non-biodegradability. Unfortunately, they induce unprecedented biochemical and pathological changes on those exposed to them, ca ...

Author(s): Zorawar Singh*

Occupational exposures in different industries may pose serious health impacts. A number of epidemiological studies have focused on the association of occupational exposures and adverse health effects. The need of the hour is to focus on the reproductive health of workers engaged at different jobs in varied industries. Increasing environmental as well as occupational ...

Published On: March 17, 2020 | Pages: 001 - 008

Author(s): Ana Moira Morás, Luiza Steffens, Bruna Eliza Nordio, Jenifer Saffi, Eliane Dallegrave, Luciana Grazziotin Rossato-Grando and Dinara Jaqueline Moura*

Background: Snake venoms are natural sources of proteins and peptides with several biological activities. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the in vitro toxicity of crude Bothrops jararaca (B. jararaca) venom on different human tumor cells and investigate its action mechanism. Material and methods: The crude venom from B. jararaca was provided by State Foundat ...
