[Sex chromosome homologies between human and fish revealed by the chromosome painting method].

Human sex chromosome-specific probes were hybridized to metaphase spreads of three fish species, Monopterus albus Zuiew, Danio rerio and Mastacembelus aculeatus Basilewsky, to reveal evolutionary conservation of sex chromosomal segments between distantly related species of vertebrates. The human X chromosomal paint disclosed 4, 8, and 6 conserved syntenic segments in the karyotypes of the three fish species respectively, which were scattered in several pairs of homologous chromosomes. But no conserved segment was identified in our experiments when the human Y chromosomal probes were used. The evolution of the X chromosome of vertebrates is discussed.

[Optic mixing of colours in Seurat's painting].

Georges Seurat is the initiator and master of the divisionism. He founds the neoimpressionism current that tries to reproduce the nature exclusively through coloured vibration. Seurat applies the colours in small touches uniformly distributed on the canvas; the colours merge if they are looked by a certain distance, through optical interference. When the spectator approaches from the picture, the special frequency decreases, the optical merging does not appear and the onlooker looks a lot of coloured spots. When the spectator moves away from the picture, the optical interference appears and the clarity of the image becomes perfectly. This current opened the way of the future's modern painting performed by Cézanne, Renoir, Van Gogh.

Detection of the XXY trisomy in a bull by using sex chromosome painting probes.

Two cattle chromosome painting probes, identifying X and Y heterosomes, were applied to verify the diagnosis of XXY trisomy in an 8-month-old bull of the Polish Red breed. The probes were obtained after chromosome microdissection and labelled with biotin-16-dUTP. In all metaphase spreads, three fluorescence signals were observed - two X and one Y - confirming the diagnosis of a pure XXY trisomy.

[Simultaneous determination of the total content of As, Ba, Cd, Cr, Hg, Pb, Se, Sb in paint coating on toys by ICP-AES].

ICP-AES was used for the simultaneous determination of the total content of As, Ba, Cd, Cr, Hg, Pb, Se, Sb in paint coating on toys. Digestion procedures of these materials with different acid mixtures have been developed. The sample was dissvolved in the acid mixture of nitric acid, tartaric acid, and a little phosphoric acid. The matrix elements effect was studied and the preferable experimental conditions were investigated. The recovery rates of this procedure were between 99% and 109%. The RSD was within 1.5%. The proposed method was simple, rapid and can be used in daily inspection of toys.

[Influence of disease on Matisse and Monet painting].

Henri Matisse (1869-1954) "Fauvisme", radically changed as for 1941, when he endured a severe surgery due to intestinal cancer. The resulting wound got necrosis, leading to a deficit at his abdominal muscles that impeached him to remain standing and paint. Sitting on his wheelchair, he started to cut out pieces of papers with which we created artistic collages. He died in 1954, aged 84, almost 13 years after his surgery. Claude Monet (1840-1926). After a journey to Venice in 1908, when he was 68 years old, cataracts were detected in Monet's both eyes, leading to the loss of his sight on his left eye and to an abnormal perception of colours on his right one. These alterations can be detected at his pieces of work. The surgery on his right eye en 1923, evoluted to a rare complication, know as "Xantopsia", that is, yellow-coloured sight, which was partially corrected through "Zeiss" linses. He died on lung cancer on 5th December 1926, aged 86.

[Periodontal disease in the workers of paints and lacquer industry (author's transl)].

Examinations were performed by the author upon the influence of organic solvents and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on parodontium in the workers of paints and lacquer industry. 195 persons employed in industry were examined. 100 persons whose conditions of work had no influence on their parodontium served as controls.--It was found that both, the frequency of incidents and the degree of intesity of changes in periodontium were significantly higher than those in the control group not exposed to the noxius action of work conditions.--This was analysed depending on sex, age, total time of employment and development of calculus dentis and plaques. The frequency, the intensivity of PI and the kind of parodontopathy was examined depending on various toxic condition at different working places. All statistical examinations were carried out by the use of the computer EMC ODRA 1305.

[Psychological evaluation of the effects of chronic occupational exposure of paint shop workers to the mixture of organic solvents].

The aim of the study was to evaluate the psychological effects of chronic occupational exposure to the mixture of organic solvents containing xylene, toluene, n-butanol, butyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, ethyl acetate and cyclohexanone defined by MAC values. Thirty-four paint shop workers and 34 controls, matched according to sex, age, education and the type of work performed, were examined. The Neurobehavioral Core Test Battery (NCTB) was used in the study. In the exposed workers, a longer simple reaction time was observed, as well as reduced manual skills and impaired precision of the hand movements.

[Poisoning caused by a paint stripping agents containing dichloromethane].

It is widely known that inhalation of the solvent dichloromethane can lead to severe intoxication. We report on a fatal accident of a 29-year-old painter. He had to remove the old chlorocaoutchoucpaint of two overflow pools adjoining an empty swimming pool by sand-blasting. After obviously having finished his work in the first pool the painter was found dead, lying on the floor of the second pool. Later an almost empty 10-kg-canister of a paint stripper (macerating agent) the main component of which was dichloromethane was found in the car of the painter. Blood samples of the corpse measured by head space gas chromatography and electron capture detection showed dichloromethane levels in the range of 513-773 micrograms/ml.

Subclinical neuropsychiatric effects of chronic low-level solvent exposure in US paint manufacturers.

In the present study, 187 workers at two US paint manufacturing plants were assessed for symptoms of painters syndrome using the Zung Depression Index, Scandinavian Questionnaire 16, and the Present State Exam. No significant associations were found between solvent exposure and total scores, although a sum of individual questions related to depression on the Present State Exam was found to be related to both health status and exposure. The clinical relevance of these findings is discussed. Overall, exposure was not associated with the constellation of symptoms characteristic of the painters' syndrome.

[Physiologic-hygienic characteristics of work conditions of female workers engaged in applying coats of paint].

The process of paint coating (female workers being mostly engaged in the technological process) is characterized by hazardous health-related effects (organic solvents and coating components) and those of the working process (forced uncomfortable postures and multiple local stereotype movements). The performed complex of physiological and hygienic research made it possible to reveal the dynamics of fatiguability, hygienic properties of the technological process at its different stages, as well as to elaborate health improvement measures to lower the negative effects of the industrial environment.

[Characterization of exposure to pollutants in spray painting industries using room air concentration values and an exposure test].

Occupational-hygienic measurements of the interior air concentration had been performed in a large number of spray painting plants. The analyses stated that with most of the cases the exposition risk on varnishers is characterized by aerosol concentration and the concentration of lead and chromate in it. The concentrations of vapours of solvent mixtures are of subordinate importance.
