A Case For Caution: An Evaluation Of Calabrese And Baldwin's Studies Of Chemical Hormesis, Kevin C. Elliott
A Case For Caution: An Evaluation Of Calabrese And Baldwin's Studies Of Chemical Hormesis, Kevin C. Elliott
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Suggesting a need for more research, Mr. Elliott argues that it is too soon for risk-assessment policy to account for recent challenges to a toxicological linear dose-response assumption.

Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research
With the rapid advances in the field of biotechnology during the last decade, many peptides and proteins have been produced and evaluated for therapy of various diseases, including cancer. However, rapid clearance and the possibility of immunogenicity after the in vivo administration of these biotechnology-driven products have impeded their marketing. To circumvent these problems, synthetic and natural polymers such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) and dextrans, respectively, have been covalently attached to proteins, and some of these protein-polymer conjugates have shown promising therapeutic results. The conjugation of proteins with polymers usually causes a reduction in the recognition of the protein by …
