Electromagnetic radiation toxic exposure

Each new chemical added to our environment potentially creates a vast number of new chemical mixtures with unknown health consequences. The number of compounds is multiplied by the chemical reactions of newly released compounds with existing released compounds as well as with naturally occurring species to create yet more toxic molecules. Continual exposure to electromagnetic radiation promotes further chemical reactivity... [Pg.4]

Sunlight and other sources of nonionizing electromagnetic radiation can affect foods. For example, it has been shown that sodium nitrite, sodium nitrate, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, and benzoic acid exhibit additive photogenotoxic effects on Escherichia coli, causing increased mutations upon exposure to sunlight. I76l Such effects potentially increase the toxic risks associated with food additives. [Pg.148]

It is universally accepted that ionizing and UV electromagnetic radiation induce toxic effects in man. It has been shown above that these toxic effects are exacerbated when irradiation is coupled with xenobiotic exposure. Conversely, the toxic effects of xenobiotic exposure are enhanced by simultaneous exposure to ionizing or UV radiation. [Pg.255]
