The assessment of genotoxic effects of wastewater from a fertilizer factoryKsenija Durgo
Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology, University of Zagreb, Pierottijeva 6, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia
J Appl Toxicol 29:42-51. 2009....
Genotoxic effects of green tea extract on human laryngeal carcinoma cells in vitroKsenija Durgo
Food Technology and Biotechnology, Zagreb, Croatia
Arh Hig Rada Toksikol 62:139-46. 2011..Green tea extract induced lipid peroxidation in the CK2 cell line. The pro-oxidant effect of green tea was determined at concentrations higher than those found in traditionally prepared green tea infusions...
Cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of the quercetin/lanthanum complex on human cervical carcinoma cells in vitroKsenija Durgo
Food Technology and Biotechnology, Zagreb, Croatia
Arh Hig Rada Toksikol 62:221-7. 2011..Although we obtained promising results on the cell level, future experiments should answer whether the quercetin/lanthanum complex is cancer-specific and stable enough in physiological conditions to make a potential new antitumour drug...
Cytotoxicity and mutagenicity study of waste and purified water samples from electroplating industries prepared by use of ferrous sulfate and wood fly ashKsenija Durgo
Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology, Laboratory for Biology and Microbial Genetics, Zagreb, Croatia
J Environ Sci Health A Tox Hazard Subst Environ Eng 40:949-57. 2005..In order to reduce this effect pretreatment of fly ash (partial removal of highly soluble compounds) are necessary prior to its usage for neutralization /coagulation/flocculation processes...
Citotoxicity status of electroplating wastewater prior/after neutralization/purification with alkaline solid residue of electric arc furnace dustVisnja Orescanin
Laboratory for Applied Nuclear Analytics, USKNI, Zagreb, Croatia
J Environ Sci Health A Tox Hazard Subst Environ Eng 44:273-8. 2009..Significantly lower level of primary DNA damage recorded after treatment with purified water, even comparable with negative control, confirmed effectiveness of the purification process...
Toxicological characterization of the new water cleaning product and its waste by-productVisnja Orescanin
Institute Rudjer Boskovic, Centre for Marine and Environmental Research, Bijenicka, Zagreb, Croatia
J Environ Sci Health A Tox Hazard Subst Environ Eng 39:1281-94. 2004..A linear, dose dependent increase was obtained for both salts. Similar results were obtained on the basis of the mitotic index...
Spectrophotometric analysis of flavonoid-DNA interactions and DNA damaging/protecting and cytotoxic potential of flavonoids in human peripheral blood lymphocytesGordana Rusak
Faculty of Science, University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia
Chem Biol Interact 188:181-9. 2010..The balance between the protection of DNA from oxidative damage and prooxidative effects was strongly dependent on flavonoid concentration and the incubation period...
The Bioactive Potential of Red Raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) Leaves in Exhibiting Cytotoxic and Cytoprotective Activity on Human Laryngeal Carcinoma and Colon AdenocarcinomaKsenija Durgo
Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology, University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia
J Med Food 15:258-68. 2012..The results obtained confirmed the biological activity of red raspberry leaf polyphenols and showed that this traditional plant can supplement the daily intake of valuable natural antioxidants, which exhibit beneficial health effects...
