In experimental animal studies, the quantitation of DNA adducts has usually required the use of highly radioactive chemical carcinogens. However, a major breakthrough in detection methods occurred in the early 1980s with the development of the 32P-postlabelling technique. Today, at least 60...
Migrant populations are of special interest to the cancer epidemiologist, since they permit comparisons of the risk of cancer in populations of similar genetic background living in different environments. The differences in risk observed, and the rapidity with which they develop after migration,...
To improve the reliability of interpretation of long-term animal test results and to simplify their use for regulatory purposes, a standardized nomenclature for the lesions observed in the tests is essential. This Classification of Rodent Tumours will help overcome some of the traditional...

Data on cancer incidence from population-based cancer registries around the world have been published first by UICC and later by the International Agency for Research on Cancer in six successive volumes of Cancer Incidence in Five Continents. These data have already provided a wealth of...

The possibility of more widespread contamination and greater mobility of cadmium in the environment on the one hand and the advent of new data concerning the carcinogenicity of cadmium on the other, make it timely to review the "state-of-the-art" in human risk identification and assessment, and...
