It is urgent to establish the limit standard of toxic components of Chinese herbal medicine, since the safety of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has attracted more and more attention.This paper analyzes the present situation and problems in the study of the limit standard of toxic components of Chinese herbal medicine. In addition, the current methods for setting the limit standards of toxic ingredients of TCM are reviewed in this paper, and we also propose a theoretical calculation method for setting the limit standards of toxic ingredients of TCM. Employing aristolochic acid as a case study, we formulate the limit standard of toxic components of Chinese herbal medicine. We believe this paper would provide some useful suggesting for formulating limits standard of toxic components of TCM.

Effects of naturally aged microplastics on arsenic and cadmium accumulation in lettuce: Insights into rhizosphere microecology.

J Hazard Mater

December 2024

Guangdong Laboratory for Lingnan Modern Agriculture, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Agricultural & Rural Pollution Abatement and Environmental Safety, College of Natural Resources and Environment, South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou 510642, China. Electronic address:

Naturally aged microplastics (NAMPs) are commonly found in farmland soils contaminated with heavy metals (HMs), such as arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd); yet their combined effects on soil-plant ecosystems remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the toxic effects of NAMPs and As-Cd on lettuce, considering the influence of earthworm activity, and examined changes in As-Cd bioavailability in the rhizosphere. Four experimental systems were established: soil-only, soil-lettuce, soil-earthworms, and soil-lettuce-earthworms systems, with four NAMPs concentrations (0, 0.

BACKGROUND Toluene poisoning can occur as a result of occupational exposure in industries such as painting, as well as through misuse, leading to complications such as neurological symptoms due to the accumulation of the metabolic byproduct of hippuric acid and metabolic acidosis. However, the exact mechanisms remain unclear. Hippuric acid is not removed by dialysis, so urinary excretion plays a central role.
