We present an ab initio theoretical approach to accurately describe phonon thermal transport
in semiconductors and insulators free of adjustable parameters. This technique combines …

… q1 q2 G)ona444 mesh. By taking advantage of the symmetry of the crystal the anharmonic
force-constant tensors for 42 different (q1 ,q2) pairs have to be calculated. The real-space …

A previous cohort-study in a cardboard factory demonstrated that high and prolonged
occupational exposure to trichloroethene (C 2 HCl 3 ) is associated with an increased incidence of …

Excretion of mercapturic acids in the urine is indicative of the formation of electrophiles in
the metabolism of xenobiotics. The determination of these mercapturic acids thus may be a …

Chronic bioassays with trichloroethene (TRI) demonstrated carcinogenicity in mice (hepatocellular
carcinomas) and rats (renal tubular cell adenomas and carcinomas). The chronic …

Covalent binding of 13 monocyclic aromatic amines to hemoglobin was studied in female
Wistar rats and hemoglobin binding indices were determined. The hemoglobin adducts were …

… GST pi levels in the range of 2± 4 lg/g urinary creatinine were found in the control group (Fig…
In all groups, the mean concentration in urine was in the range of 1.8 and 3.3 lg/g urinary cre…

In the present study we investigated the formation of sulfoxides from N-acetyl-S-(1,2,2-trichlorovinyl)-l-cysteine
(N-Ac-TCVC), N-acetyl-S-(1,2-dichlorovinyl)-l-cysteine (N-Ac-1,2-DCVC), …

… ±300 g body wt.) and female (190±250 g body wt.) Wistar rats by injection via the tail vein.
The animals were transferred to all-glass metabolic cages with free access to water and food (…

The present study reports on a 17-year-old male who ingested approximately 70 ml
trichloroethene (TRI) in a suicide attempt. The patient developed fever, tremor, general motor …
