Acrolein and crotonaldehyde are alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds that form 1,N2-propanodeoxyguanosine adducts when reacted with DNA in vitro. These compounds are mutagenic in Salmonella, and crotonaldehyde is tumorigenic in rats. This study used immunoassay and 32P-postlabeling methods to determine if acrolein and crotonaldehyde form these adducts in cultured mammalian cells. Adduct levels were highest in Chinese hamster ovary cells exposed to acrolein (1 mM) with 162 mumol adduct/mol deoxyguanosine. Crotonaldehyde (10 mM) formed adduct at a level of 75 mumol/mol deoxyguanosine. 32P-Postlabeling analysis confirmed the presence of adducts in crotonaldehyde-treated cells. Persistence studies showed that adduct levels were unchanged if the cells were cultured for 6 h before DNA isolation. Mutagenicity studies were performed to determine the biological consequences of these adducts. Mutations were not observed due to the toxicity of the compounds.

Nicotine salt e-liquids are widely used in pod-style and disposable electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). Studying the physical and chemical properties of their emissions can inform their toxicological impact. A prior companion study reported the harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs) and aerosol particle sizes produced from laboratory-made nicotine salt and freebase nicotine e-liquids to assess the effects of varying nicotine salts and nicotine protonation.

We report a significantly more rapid method for quantitation of the urinary mercapturic acids of the isomeric toxicants crotonaldehyde, methacrolein, and methyl vinyl ketone. The major innovation of this novel method is detection by liquid chromatography-negative atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-tandem mass spectrometry-selected reaction monitoring as opposed to detection by negative electrospray ionization in our previously reported method. The new method also uses an improved Raptor Biphenyl HPLC column.

Article Synopsis
- An air quality monitoring campaign in Luanda, Angola, in June 2023 examined gaseous pollutants at 25 locations, finding that traffic-heavy areas had higher levels of benzene, toluene, SO, and NO, but these were within WHO guidelines.
- * Ozone levels were notably higher than in other African regions, with heavy traffic areas showing a strong potential for ozone formation, primarily from compounds like m,p-xylene and toluene.
- * Despite moderate risk for non-cancer diseases across most sites, the Mulenvos landfill showed a high hazard quotient, and overall cancer risks exceeded acceptable levels, primarily driven by naphthalene exposure.*
Assessment of genotoxic potential of fragrance materials in the chicken egg assays.

New York Medical College, Valhalla, New York, USA.
The genotoxic and clastogenic/aneugeneic potentials of four α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, 2-phenyl-2-butenal, nona-2-trans-6-cis-dienal, 2-methyl-2-pentenal, and p-methoxy cinnamaldehyde, which are used as fragrance materials, were assessed using the Chicken Egg Genotoxicity Assay (CEGA) and the Hen's egg micronucleus (HET-MN) assay, respectively. Selection of materials was based on their chemical structures and the results of their previous assessment in the regulatory in vitro and/or in vivo genotoxicity test battery. Three tested materials, 2-phenyl-2-butenal, nona-2-trans-6-cis-dienal, and 2-methyl-2-pentenal, were negative in both, CEGA and HET-MN assays.

Background: Epidemiological evidence emphasizes air pollutants' role in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) contribute to air pollution, yet research on VOCs and kidney damage, especially gender disparities, is limited.
Methods: This study analyzed NHANES data to explore associations between urinary VOC metabolite mixtures (VOCMs) and key kidney-related parameters: estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR), chronic kidney disease (CKD), and albuminuria.
