Biological Monitoring of Exposure to Benzene in Port Workers
2020
Port workers are exposed to a wide range of occupational hazards that can cause injuries and occupational diseases. Among these, exposure to benzene is one of the most important but least studied. The highest occupational exposures for port workers occur during the filling and loading of gasoline, and cleaning of tanks and receptacles. The aim of the study was to evaluate occupational exposure to low levels of benzene by measuring trans,trans-muconic acid (t,t-MA) in urine samples from workers operating at fuelling stations in a tourist port of Southern Italy. The overall sample was composed of 43 port workers of a tourist port in Southern Italy. In 2018, each participant provided two (morn…
ChemInform Abstract: Trienediolates of Hexadienoic Acids in Synthesis. Synthesis of Retinoic and nor-Retinoic Acids.
2010
Abstract Double deprotonation of either (E,E)-3-methyl-2,4-hexadienoic acid 2, or 4,6-dimethyldihydro-2-pyrone 3 generates apparently the same lithium trienediolate, which affords ω-hydroxy acids 9 on reaction with ketones 7. Hydroxy acids 9 are easily dehydrated to octatrienoic acids 5, which are structurally related to retinoic acid. Similarly, sorbic acid 1 leads to nor-retinoic acid analogs 6.
Polyenolates of unsaturated carboxylic acids in synthesis. A straightforward synthesis of retinoic acids.
1990
Abstract Retinoic acids are prepared in a two step procedure by addition of lithium trienediolates of sorbic acid and 3-methyl-sorbic acid to β-ionone.

Studies on the induction of gene mutations in bacterial and mammalian cells by the ring-opened benzene metabolites trans,trans-muconaldehyde and tran…
1990
t,t-Muconaldehyde and t,t-muconic acid have been investigated for the induction of gene mutations in Salmonella typhimurium (reversion of the his- strains TA97, TA98, TA100, TA102, TA104 and TA1535), Escherichia coli (reversion of the trp- strain WP2 uvrA) and Chinese hamster V79 cells (acquisition of resistance toward 6-thioguanine). t,t-Muconaldehyde proved weakly mutagenic in strain TA104 in the presence and absence of NADPH-fortified postmitochondrial fraction from rat liver homogenate (S9 mix). In strains TA97, TA100 and TA102, weak positive responses were observed only in the presence of S9 mix. In strains TA98, TA1535 and WP2 uvrA, the result was negative. In V79 cells, the mutation …
