Additional or excess risk incurred over the lifetime of an individual by exposure to a toxic substance.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
Administration of materials directly into the stomach by esophageal intubation.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
Adverse change in the chemical and biological status of a body of water following depletion of the oxygen content caused by decay of organic matter resulting from high primary production as a result of enhanced input of nutrients.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
Adverse changes in blood caused by exposure to chemicals.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
Adverse effects occurring when the generation of reactive nitrogen species in a system exceeds the system’s ability to neutralize and eliminate them; nitrosative stress may lead to nitrosylation reactions that can alter protein structure thus inhibiting normal function.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
Adverse effects occurring when the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in a system exceeds the system’s ability to neutralize and eliminate them; excess ROS can damage a cell’s lipids, protein or DNA.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
