Article Synopsis
- * A study was conducted on rats to see how Cr accumulates in various brain regions after a 90-day exposure to drinking water with Cr(VI) at regulated levels, focusing on age and sex differences.
- * Findings revealed that Cr accumulated primarily in the hippocampus of older female rats, highlighting significant changes in essential metals in the brain, indicating a targeted effect of Cr(VI) on brain tissue and possible health implications.

Consequently, we currently have a poor understanding of how environmental pollution will impact geriatric health distinctly from younger populations. Few toxicology studies have considered age differences with geriatric individuals.
