BU SBRP researchers have three new publications in the journals Environmental Health Perspectives, Aquatic Toxicology, and the Journal of Environmental Science and Health.
In a collaborative effort, BU SBRP researcher Ann Aschengrau (project 1), graduate student Lisa Gallagher, researchers Veronica Vieira and Tom Webster (project 2), and Program Director David Ozonoff recently published a paper titled "Prenatal Exposure to Tetrachloroethylene- Contaminated Drinking Water and the Risk of Adverse Birth Outcomes." in Environmental Health Perspectives. In this paper the authors conducted a retrospective cohort study to examine whether PCE contamination of public drinking water supplies affected birth weight and gestation.
Project 5 PI Mark Hahn recently published a paper titled "Functional properties of the four Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aryl hydrocarbon receptor type 2 (AHR2) isoforms." in the journal Aquatic Toxicology. In this paper the researchers investigated TCDD toxicity by examining the expression of AHR genes in Atlantic Salmon.
Ian Callard (project 8) also published a paper titled the "Effect of cadmium on gonadal development in freshwater turtle (Trachemys scripta, Chrysemys picta) embryos." in the Journal of Environmental Science and Health. Here the researchers investigated the effect of an environmentally relevant dose of cadmium on gonadal development in freshwater turtles.
