| Or does a large surface area per unit mass make those particles robust vehicles for ferrying toxicants such as metal atoms deep into the lungs? |
| Therefore, D. melanogaster can be a sentinel organism for long-term release of toxicants into the environment. |
| The numbers might not add up because some chemicals fit into more than one category, for example, they might be carcinogenic and be suspected respiratory toxicants. |
| Abnormal interruption of these integrated signaling pathways by food-related and environmental toxicants results in diseased states, such as cancer. |
| As is mentioned in other sections of this bulletin, some fish toxicants and herbicides are more effective when the water temperature is above 60 degrees F in the top two feet. |
| To identify these predictive genes, classic toxicants must be analyzed to determine the most appropriate genes that will represent each class of chemical or toxic end-point. |
