Item Animal originated allergens and measures to reduce exposure(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2009-12-16) Coşkun, Şevki; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Veteriner Fakültesi.Many of the animal allergens widespread in the world sources from mammalian or arthropod animals. Here, some of the allergens defined by the I.U.I.S (International Union of Immunological Societies) were listed by indicating their primarily body location in the source animal. There is evidence that allergen exposure avoidance causes to decrease both in developing of sensitization and in severity of the allergic symptoms. Recommendations for specific environmental allergen avoidance are lined up for house-dust mites, pet animals and cockroachesItem A perspective on the potential health risks of dioxin in human food(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2009-10-26) Kurşun, Özen; Mor, FirdevsIt is well known that a wide variety of toxic chemicals are present in the soils, sediments, vegetation, and water. Dioxins are a heterogeneous mixture of chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofuran (PCDD/F) congeners. The main sources of PCDD/F and PCB are production of chloro-organics and emissions of industrial and municipal incineration and pyrolysis processes. They have been the potential for redistribution and circulation of these compounds into the environment. Transfer into human food occurs by food chain. Humans are ultimately exposed to these compounds primarily through the diet, mainly by consumption of fish, mollusks and dairy products. On the other hand, their health effects such as hyperpigmentation, impairment of immune responses, early infant deaths, hepatotoxicity, carcinogenic effects and, reproductive effects have been intensively studied recently. As growth in toxic chemicals of food, monitoring the food supply will become more important
