PPT-Studying Stress and Acute Toxicity Using

Drosophila melanogaster Krista Carter Advisor Dr Brown Results In order to ensure that the flies were stressed the maximum heat and cold temperatures at which the flies could survive for 48 hours were found The heat stress exposure was determined to be 29 C Flies could survive at 7 C but this temperature posed a problem because it restricted their movement so that they could not reach the feeding tube A temperature of 10 C was used for the cold stress exposure since it was the lowest temperature at which the flies could move enough to reach the glucose solution.

Isoniazid (INH) is a crucial drug in the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis. INH is commonly known to cause derangements in liver function tests and peripheral neuropathy due to pyridoxine deficiency in slow acetylators. However, in toxic doses it is known to cause severe neurologic manifestations and acute metabolic acidosis. INH toxicity is characterized by the clinical triad of repetitive seizures unresponsive to the usual anticonvulsants, metabolic acidosis with a high anion gap and coma. Hence, the diagnosis of INH overdose should be considered in any patient who presents to Emergency medical services (EMS) with the triad. Though accidental overdose of anti-tuberculosis drugs have been reported in children and adults, acute toxicity is rare. When recognized, intravenous pyridoxine and correction of acidosis with sodium bicarbonate and supportive treatment is effective. The condition is easily treated with intravenous pyridoxine but if not treated in time could prove fatal. Unlike other poisonings, serum INH levels do not co-relate with either symptomatology or liver injury.. ToxCast data to predict acute toxicity. Dan Wilson, PhD, DABT.
