Halogenated derivatives QSAR model using spectral moments to predict haloacetic acids (HAA) mutagenicity.

Bioorg. Med. Chem. 16 , 5720-32, (2008)

The risk of the presence of haloacetic acids in drinking water as chlorination by-products and the shortage of experimental mutagenicity data for most of them requires a research work. This paper describes a QSAR model to predict direct mutagenicity for these...

Autoimmune response in MRL+/+ mice following treatment with dichloroacetyl chloride or dichloroacetic anhydride.

Toxicol. Appl. Pharmacol. 216(2) , 248-55, (2006)

Dichloroacetyl chloride (DCAC) is formed from trichloroethene (TCE), which is implicated in inducing/accelerating autoimmune response. Due to its potent acylating activity, DCAC may convert proteins to neo-antigens and thus could induce autoimmune responses. ...

Photocatalysis of gaseous trichloroethylene (TCE) over TiO2: the effect of oxygen and relative humidity on the generation of dichloroacetyl chloride (DCAC) and phosgene.

J. Hazard. Mater. 146(1-2) , 302-8, (2007)

Batch photocatalytic degradation of 80+/-2.5 ppm V trichloroethylene (TCE) was conducted to investigate the effect of the oxygen and relative humidity (RH) on the formation of the dichloroacetyl chloride (DCAC) and phosgene. Based on the simultaneous ordinary...

Anti-malondialdehyde antibodies in MRL+/+ mice treated with trichloroethene and dichloroacetyl chloride: possible role of lipid peroxidation in autoimmunity.

Toxicol. Appl. Pharmacol. 170(2) , 88-92, (2001)

Trichloroethene (TCE) and one of its metabolites dichloroacetyl chloride (DCAC) are known to induce/accelerate autoimmune (AI) response in MRL+/+ mice as evident from anti-nuclear, anti-ssDNA, anti-cardiolipin, and DCAC-specific antibodies in the serum (Khan ...

Inhalation carcinogenesis of various alkylating agents.

J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 79(2) , 285-9, (1987)

A series of earlier studies showed that inhalation exposures of rats to three water-reactive electrophilic compounds produced brisk yields of nasal cancer even when the animals were exposed for only 30 days (6 hr/day X 5 day/wk). In addition, carcinogenic pot...

Transcriptomic analysis reveals early signs of liver toxicity in female MRL +/+ mice exposed to the acylating chemicals dichloroacetyl chloride and dichloroacetic anhydride.

Chem. Res. Toxicol. 21(3) , 572-82, (2008)

Dichloroacetyl chloride (DCAC) is a reactive metabolite of trichloroethene (TCE). TCE and its metabolites have been implicated in the induction of organ-specific and systemic autoimmunity, in the acceleration of autoimmune responses, and in the development of...

Time-dependent autoimmune response of dichloroacetyl chloride in female MRL +/+ mice.

Immunopharmacol. Immunotoxicol. 19(2) , 265-77, (1997)

Welders are exposed to dichloroacetyl chloride (DCAC) when trichloroethene (TCE) is used as a degreasing agent. Human exposure to TCE and tetrachloroethane can also lead to formation of DCAC in situ through metabolism. Due to its strong acylating property, it...
