Presentation Transcript

  1. Environmental and Nutritonal diseases • Toxicology • Xenobiotics These r exogenous chemicals present in air,water,soil,and food • Enter the body thrskin,inhalation,injestion, • Some xenobiotcs • Form inactive water soulble products called detoxification

  2. Or activated to form toxic metabolites • 2 phases • Phase 1chemicals undergo hydrolisis,oroxidation,or reduction become water soluble • Phase 2 glucuronidnation,sulfation,methylation

  3. The most important catalyst in phase 1 is • Cytochrome P 450 enzyme they detoxify or activate the xenophyte to cause cellular injury.n by both reactive oxygen species which cause cellular damage

  4. Envirnomental pollution • Air pollution • Ozone – Injury to resp n alveoli results in URTI and inflammation esp in asthmatics, emphysema • The reaction air way hyperactivity and NEUTROPHILIA

  5. Sulfur dioxide • Particulate matter soot espog 10micromt diameter is harmful • CO carboxyhemoglobin,cherry red clolr spots with acute poisoning • Indoor pollution • Tobacco smoke • Wood smoke, bioaerosoles, formaldehyde
