DNA DAMAGE MEASURED BY COMET ASSAY AND 8-OH-dG FORMATION RELATED TO BLOOD CHEMICAL ANALYSES IN AGED RATS
TL;DR: The results suggest that the activity of DNA repair and metabolic activation enzymes declines in aged rats and that the accumulation of spontaneous DNA damage may affect vital functions.

TL;DR: When a suspicious level near 100 Bq/kg is detected in the neck of slaughtered cattle, re-inspection should be conducted using a different region of muscle, for example top round, to prevent marketing of beef that violates the Food Sanitation Act.

TL;DR: Recent findings related to the neurotoxicity of tobacco, marijuana and opium, and their toxic ingredients, nicotine, delta 9-THC and morphine in relation to their respective endogenous agents and receptors in the CNS are reviewed.

Distribution of radioactive cesium and its seasonal variations in cattle living in the "difficult-to-return zone" of the Fukushima nuclear accident
TL;DR: Study results indicated that relative cesium concentrations in internal organs were higher in May compared to December, and there were high correlations of cedium concentration between the blood and other tissues.

TL;DR: Results suggest that a safety factor of 2 is recommended for the radioactivity inspection of cattle to prevent a marketing of meat with higher cesium than the legal limit and re-inspection should be conducted using another part of muscle, for example, top round, when suspicious levels of 50-100 Bq/kg are detected in the neck.
