Abstract
The study contains the results of fluoride testing done on 31 fetal specimens. It demonstrates that fluoride can pass through the placenta into the fetus, that bone tissues shows the highest levels of fluoride while brain tissue shows the lowest, and that overall level of fluoride increases with the fluoride burden of the mother and the age of the fetus.

Enamel uptake and patient exposure to fluoride: comparison of APF gel and foam
This crossover study with 46 child dental patients compared two topical APF products, a gel and a foam, with respect to the amounts of product and fluoride (F) applied, salivary F concentrations, and enamel F uptake. Half the subjects were treated for 4 min with the gel first and the

Effects of plasma fluoride and dietary calcium concentrations on GI absorption and secretion of fluoride in the rat
This 30-day balance study with weanling rats was designed to determine the effects of plasma fluoride and dietary calcium concentration and their interaction on the absorption, balance, and tissue concentrations of fluoride. The three major groups differed according to the total exposure and plasma concentrations of fluoride. One group received

A physiologically based pharmacokinetic model for fluoride uptake by bone
A sex-specific, physiologically based pharmacokinetic (pbpk) model has been developed to describe the absorption, distribution, and elimination of fluorides in rats and humans. Growth curves generated by plotting mean body weights (kg) against age (weeks or years) are included in the simulation model to allow the integration of chronic fluoride

Effective interventional approach to control anaemia in pregnant women
Anaemia in pregnancy and low birth weight babies, a serious public health problem, troubles India and several other nations. This article reports the results of a approach to address the issue. Women up to 20 week pregnancy with haemoglobin (Hb) 9.0 g/dl or less, those with urinary fluoride beyond 1.0

Teratogenicity caused by halothane, enflurane, and sevoflurane, and changes depending on O2 concentration.
We re-examined the teratogenicity of enflurane and sevoflurane using A/J strain mice on the 11th day of gestation. Exposure conditions and observation period: Based on results of preliminary examinations, animals in the 11th day of gestation were exposed to enflurane and sevofluran for 8 hours under three different conditions of
