Buffalo Liver samples from fetus of approximately 50-60 days old were collected from a local slaughterhouse. The samples were then processed and cultured in (serum containing) appropriate cell culture medium and incubated separately with (progesterone) the previously mentioned two dose combinations. At the end of the 12 hrs of incubation period, the progesterone metabolite were extracted from liver cell culture supernatant and detected using high performance liquid chromatography with a reversed-phase (HPLC). Comparison of the results of the two treatment depicted 5µg/ml progesterone as the most potent conversions into its metabolite in bubaline cultured liver cells. In conclusion, secretion and conversion of progesterone into metabolites data clearly indicate for the first time that liver play an important role in metabolism of progesterone in buffalo that are then secreted in the bile. The highest conversion of progesterone metabolite with 5µg/ml of progesterone concentration might be associated with the liver function.

This included a quantification of the bio-accessibility of hazardous chemicals found in the crumb infill and associated turf product from both newly purchased materials and in-use fields of different ages. The objective was to provide an independent scientific basis to assist communities in their ability to make decisions on the selection of the materials to be used as artificial infill turf fields based on potential exposure to users of the fields to hazardous agent that might be present in the materials. Methodology: Synthetic lung, sweat and digestive biofluids were analyzed for trace metals, polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and scanned for semi-volatile organic compounds. In addition acid extraction for metals and high temperature volatilization for semi-volatile and volatile organic compounds were done to assess total extractable levels of these compounds. The protocols were followed in order to fill a major data gap identified by the 2008 turf/infill workshop, NYC, NY, that bioaccessibilty studies were needed for the inhalation, dermal and ingestion routes of entry into the body for both organic and inorganic materials.
