Appendix J Bibliography of ECOTOX Open Literature Not Evaluated Appendix J Bibliography of ECOTOX Open Literature Not Evaluated Explanation of OPP Acceptability Criteria and Rejection Codes for ECOTOX Data Studies located and coded into ECOTOX must meet acceptability criteria, as established in the Interim Guidance of the Evaluation Criteria for Ecological Toxicity Data in the Open Literature, Phase I and II, Office of Pesticide Programs, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, July 16, 2004. Studies that do not meet these criteria are designated in the bibliography as “Accepted for ECOTOX but not OPP.” The intent of the acceptability criteria is to ensure data quality and verifiability. The criteria parallel criteria used in evaluating registrant-submitted studies. Specific criteria are listed below, along with the corresponding rejection code. · The paper does not report toxicology information for a chemical of concern to OPP; (Rejection Code: NO COC) · The article is not published in English language; (Rejection Code: NO FOREIGN) · The study is not presented as a full article. Abstracts will not be considered; (Rejection Code: NO ABSTRACT) · The paper is not publicly available document; (Rejection Code: NO NOT PUBLIC (typically not used, as any paper acquired from the ECOTOX holding or through the literature search is considered public) · The paper is not the primary source of the data; (Rejection Code: NO REVIEW) · The paper does not report that treatment(s) were compared to an acceptable control; (Rejection Code: NO CONTROL) · The paper does not report an explicit duration of exposure; (Rejection Code: NO DURATION) · The paper does not report a concurrent environmental chemical concentration/dose or application rate; (Rejection Code: NO CONC) · The paper does not report the location of the study (e.g., laboratory vs. field); (Rejection Code: NO LOCATION) · The paper does not report a biological effect on live, whole organisms; (Rejection Code: NO IN-VITRO) · The paper does not report the species that was tested; and this species can be verified in a reliable source; (Rejection Code: NO SPECIES) · The paper does not report effects associated with exposure to a single chemical. (Rejection Code: NO MIXTURE). It should be noted that all papers including data on pesticide mixtures are considered. Additionally, efficacy studies on target species are excluded and coded as NO TARGET. Data that originated from the OPP Pesticide Ecotoxicity Database is coded as NO EFED. These data are already available to the chemical team. Excluded 1. 3,4-Dichloroaniline: Predicted and Observed Rates of Loss in Aquatic Systems With Cover Letter. Epa/ots; doc #878214182.

William Rutherford 5 Department of Life Sciences, Imperial College London, London, UK 6 Correspondence to: [email protected] 7 8 Abstract 9 The earliest event recorded in the molecular evolution of photosynthesis is the structural and 10 functional specialisation of Type I (ferredoxin-reducing) and Type II (quinone-reducing) reaction 11 centres. Here we point out that the homodimeric Type I reaction centre of Heliobacteria has a Ca2+- 12 binding site with a number of striking parallels to the Mn4CaO5 cluster of cyanobacterial 13 Photosystem II. This structural parallels indicate that water oxidation chemistry originated at the 14 divergence of Type I and Type II reaction centres.

  • Chapter 3 the Title and Subtitle of This Chapter Convey a Dual Meaning
    3.1. Introduction Chapter 3 The title and subtitle of this chapter convey a dual meaning. At first reading, the subtitle Photosynthetic Reaction might seem to indicate that the topic of the structure, function and organization of Centers: photosynthetic reaction centers is So little time, so much to do exceedingly complex and that there is simply insufficient time or space in this brief article to cover the details. While this is John H. Golbeck certainly the case, the subtitle is Department of Biochemistry additionally meant to convey the idea that there is precious little time after the and absorption of a photon to accomplish the Molecular Biology task of preserving the energy in the form of The Pennsylvania State University stable charge separation. University Park, PA 16802 USA The difficulty is there exists a fundamental physical limitation in the amount of time available so that a photochemically induced excited state can be utilized before the energy is invariably wasted. Indeed, the entire design philosophy of biological reaction centers is centered on overcoming this physical, rather than chemical or biological, limitation. In this chapter, I will outline the problem of conserving the free energy of light-induced charge separation by focusing on the following topics: 3.2. Definition of the problem: the need to stabilize a charge-separated state. 3.3. The bacterial reaction center: how the cofactors and proteins cope with this problem in a model system. 3.4. Review of Marcus theory: what governs the rate of electron transfer in proteins? 3.5. Photosystem II: a variation on a theme of the bacterial reaction center.

Chapter 4 Pharmacokinetics of Anticoagulant Rodenticides in Target and Non-target Organisms Katherine E. Horak, Penny M. Fisher, and Brian Hopkins 1 Introduction The concentration of a compound at the site of action is a determinant of its toxicity. This principle is affected by a variety of factors including the chemical properties of the compound (pKa, lipophilicity, molecular size), receptor binding affinity, route of exposure, and physiological properties of the organism. Many compounds have to undergo chemical changes, biotransformation, into more toxic or less toxic forms. Because of all of these variables, predicting toxic effects and performing risk assess- ments of compounds based solely on dose are less accurate than those that include data on absorption, distribution, metabolism (biotransformation), and excretion of the compound.

    Newsletter Issue 132 Sep 2013 Registered Charity No. 510146 hanks to all those who contributed to this edition. Also, thanks to all those Twho volunteered, some time ago, to assist in the packing of the newsletter for posting. If you haven't been called yet don’t worry I still have your names on the list and the Christmas edition is usually the big one! The details of the programme of events for the rest of the year can be found on page seven, along with any relevant notices. I intend to make this a regular feature to remind members of the events and advise you of any changes to them. The full programme can also be found on the website at: www.deesidenaturalists.org.uk. Speaking of the website we have been experiencing a few problems recently with emails and access to the site itself. That, hopefully, has now been resolved and both should be back to normal. If anyone is still having problems logging onto the site please let me know via email to: [email protected]. I am also still looking for volunteers to help build the bird, butterfly and plant identification pages. Anyone interested in helping can contact me at the same email address. A few members attended the Rutland Bird Fair. As my wife had booked us both on one of the evening trips around the reservoir to see the Ospreys we decided to stop overnight. We didn’t see any but the commentary by Johnny Kingdom more than made up for it. For those of you who have never been to the bird fair, this is a great opportunity to spend a fortune on equipment, see a host of celebrities and book wildlife holidays for virtually any place on the planet! I found the layout of the fair confusing at first but eventually found my way round the site.

  • BRAVE BIRDS By: PDSA - the UK’S Leading Veterinary Charity
    BRAVE BIRDS By: PDSA - the UK’s leading veterinary charity. Additional text and photos courtesy of Australian War Memorial and UK Flightglobal Archive. The most famous and the oldest of the charity’s awards is the PDSA Dickin Medal. It acknowledges outstanding acts of bravery displayed by animals serving with the Armed Forces or Civil Defence units in any theatre of war, worldwide. The Medal is recognised as the animals’ Victoria Cross and is the highest British honour for animal bravery in military conflicts. The medal was instituted in 1943 Maria Dickin. Maria Dickin CBE PDSA owes its foundation to the vision of one woman - Maria Elisabeth Dickin - and her determination to raise the status of animals, and the standard of their care, in society. During the First World War, Maria Dickin CBE worked to improve the dreadful state of animal health in the Whitechapel area of London. She wanted to open a clinic where East Enders living in poverty could receive free treatment for their sick and injured animals. Left: Despite the scepticism of the Establishment, Maria Dickin opened her free 'dispensary' in a Whitechapel basement on Saturday 17th November 1917. It was an immediate success and she was soon forced to find larger premises. Photo PDSA. Within six years this extraordinary woman had designed and equipped her first horse-drawn clinic and soon a fleet of mobile dispensaries was established. PDSA vehicles soon became a comforting and familiar sight throughout the country. With success came increased attention from her critics at the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and the Ministry of Agrigulture.

The book series Palimpsest: Disorientation addresses the culture of war, civil war, violence and conflict. It aims to rethink the discourse of war and enmity, and in doing so it hopes to contribute to the undermining of the stereotyping frames, without which no war can be waged. The book series first term, Palimpsest, (the scraped-off parchment roll) suggests the layeredness, opacity and density of cultural objects and processes, and there- fore also their rich possibilities towards rereading and revision.

  • CHAPTER 1 General Introduction
    CHAPTER 1 General Introduction Chapter 1 1.1 General Introduction Drugs are defined as chemical substances that are used to prevent or cure diseases in humans and animals. Drugs can also act as poisons if taken in excess. For example paracetamol overdose causes coma and death. Apart from the curative effect of drugs, most of them have several unwanted biological effects known as side effects. Aspirin which is commonly used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains, as an antipyretic to reduce fever and as an anti-inflammatory medication, may also cause gastric irritation and bleeding. Also many drugs, such as antibiotics, when over used develop resistance to the patients, microorganisms and virus which are intended to control by drug. Resistance occurs when a drug is no longer effective in controlling a medical condition.1 Thus, new drugs are constantly required to surmount drug resistance, for the improvement in the treatment of existing diseases, the treatment of newly identified disease, minimise the adverse side effects of existing drugs etc. Drugs are classified in number of different ways depending upon their mode of action such as antithrombotic drugs, analgesic, antianxiety, diuretics, antidepressant and antibiotics etc.2 Antithrombotic drugs are one of the most important classes of drugs which can be shortly defined as ―drugs that reduce the formation of blood clots‖. The blood coagulation, also known as haemostasis is a physiological process in which body prevents blood loss by forming stable clot at the site of injury. Clot formation is a coordinated interplay of two fundamental processes, aggregation of platelets and formation of fibrin.
