Perfluorooctanoic acid-induced developmental cardiotoxicity in an avian model
(East Carolina University, 2013)
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a synthetic chemical used in polyfluormer production. It is a widespread environmental contaminant and is known to induce developmental toxicity in rodent models. As several related compounds ...
Influence of carbon nanomaterial exposure on pro-constrictor mechanisms during pregnancy
(East Carolina University, 2013)
Engineered carbon based nanoparticles (CNP) such as fullerenes and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are increasingly used in industries and in nanomedicine as a platform for drug delivery. Following environmental/o ...
