The lyon clinical olfactory test: validation and measurement of hyposmia and anosmia in healthy and diseased populations.

Int. J. Otolaryngol. 2011 , 203805, (2011)

The LCOT is a self-administered test designed to assess olfactory deficits. Altogether, 525 subjects contributed to the validation. Elderly participants were well represented in this sample. In a validation study (study 1), 407 healthy and 17 anosmic voluntee...

Environmental occurrence and biota concentration of phthalate esters in Epe and Lagos Lagoons, Nigeria.

Mar. Environ. Res. 108 , 24-32, (2015)

The high global occurrence of phthalates in different environmental matrixes has resulted in the detection of their metabolites in human urine, blood, and breast milk, indicating a widespread human exposure. In addition, the notorious endocrine disrupting eff...

Development of dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction technique using ternary solvents mixture followed by heating for the rapid and sensitive analysis of phthalate esters and di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate.

J. Chromatogr. A. 1379 , 24-33, (2015)

In this study, for the first time, a dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction technique using a ternary solvent mixture is reported. In order to extract five phthalate esters and di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate with different polarities from aqueous samples, a simpl...

Growth of cedar-like Au nanoparticles coating on an etched stainless steel wire and its application for selective solid-phase microextraction.

Anal. Chim. Acta 876 , 55-62, (2015)

A novel cedar-like Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) coating was fabricated on an etched stainless steel (SS) wire by direct chemical deposition and used as an efficient and unbreakable solid phase microextraction (SPME) fiber. The etched SS wire offers a rough surfac...

Fabrication and application of zinc-zinc oxide nanosheets coating on an etched stainless steel wire as a selective solid-phase microextraction fiber.

J. Chromatogr. A. 1384 , 28-36, (2015)

A novel zinc-zinc oxide (Zn-ZnO) nanosheets coating was directly fabricated on an etched stainless steel wire substrate as solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber via previous electrodeposition of robust Zn coating. The scanning electron micrograph of the Zn...

QSAR study on permeability of hydrophobic compounds with artificial membranes.

Bioorg. Med. Chem. 15 , 3756-67, (2007)

We previously reported a classical quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) equation for permeability coefficients (P(app-pampa)) by parallel artificial membrane permeation assay (PAMPA) of structurally diverse compounds with simple physicochemical...

Cosmetics as a potential source of environmental contamination in the UK.

Environ. Technol. 33(13-15) , 1597-608, (2012)

Chemicals of emerging concern (CECs) are frequently used in cosmetic formulations and can potentially reach the environment at concentrations that may cause harm. A methodology was developed to assess over 120 chemicals assembled from product ingredient listi...

A new dopaminergic nigro-olfactory projection.

Acta Neuropathol. 130 , 333-48, (2015)

Parkinson disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by massive loss of midbrain dopaminergic neurons. Whereas onset of motor impairments reflects a rather advanced stage of the disorder, hyposmia often marks the beginning of the disease. Litt...

Determination of phthalate esters in vegetable oils using direct immersion solid-phase microextraction and fast gas chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry.

Anal. Chim. Acta 887 , 237-44, (2015)

Phthalates are a group of synthetic compounds mainly used as plasticizers, which have been classified as endocrine-disrupting chemicals and potential human-cancer causing agents. They can be found in high amounts in foods, deriving mainly from plastic packagi...

Intestinal pregnane X receptor links xenobiotic exposure and hypercholesterolemia.

Mol. Endocrinol. 29 , 765-76, (2015)

Recent studies have associated endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC) exposure with the increased risk of cardiovascular disease in humans, but the underlying mechanisms responsible for these associations remain elusive. Many EDCs have been implicated in activat...
