A Review for Metastasis (Silent Killer) to Both Soft and Hard Tissue of Oral Cavity
Abstract: Metastasis is defined by the spread of a tumour to sites that are physically discontinuous with the primary tumour, and unequivocally marks a tumour as malignant. One of the illnesses that poses the greatest risk to human life is cancer. Patients with cancer may experience metastasis years or even decades, after the main tumour was diagnosed, making the metastatic process considerably more complicated and the disease more lethal. Cancer from …

A New Extractive Spectrophotometric Method for the Determination of Oxydemeton methyl in Relation to its Environmental and Toxicological Analysis
Abstract: In view of the wide agricultural use of oxydemeton methyl insecticide and its associated toxic effects, it has been determined in the soil, water and foodstuffs to assess its environmental relevance. A new, simple and sensitive extractive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the purpose. It is based on microwave-assisted alkaline hydrolysis of insecticide to form 2-ethylsulfinyl-ethyl mercaptan and transformation of the latter through reaction with carbon disulphide and nickel(II) …

Impact of Hexavalent Chromium on Histopathology in Freshwater Stinging Catfish Heteropneustes Fossilis
Abstract: Acute toxicity of Cr (VI) (as K2Cr2O7) to freshwater stinging catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis and its histopathological impacts on gill and liver tissue were evaluated. Fish showed behavioral alterations after K2Cr2O7 exposure and 96 h-LC50 was 35.724 mg/L in static bioassay. Fish were exposed to three sub-lethal concentrations (concentration I=1/4th of 96 h-LC50, concentration II=1/10th of 96 h-LC50 and concentration III=environmental concentration of Cr reported in the river Buriganga). Blood, liver …
