Compared with the control group, the DNA double-strand break rate in the exposure groups at P1 and P7 and the H2A.X phosphorylation rate in the exposed group at P7 increased, with statistically significant differences (<i>P</i><0.05) . <b>Conclusion:</b> Chrysotile asbestos exposure caused changes in rDNA copy number and mRNA expression levels of related nucleolin genes in Met-5A cells, inducing apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and DNA damage.</p>","PeriodicalId":23958,"journal":{"name":"中华劳动卫生职业病杂志","volume":"44 3","pages":"186-192"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147610062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The method showed a good average desorption efficiency which was 96.71%-99.47%, and the relative standard deviation (<i>RSD</i>) of within-batches and between-batches were 0.51%-1.25% and 1.20%-2.45%. The air samples could be saved at least 14 d at room temperature and 4 Celsius degree without obvious loss. <b>Conclusion:</b> This method has the characteristics of high precision, high desorbent efficiency, high sensitivity, and simple operation. It is suitable for the determination of methylcyclohexanol in the air in the workplace.</p>","PeriodicalId":23958,"journal":{"name":"中华劳动卫生职业病杂志","volume":"44 3","pages":"226-231"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147610032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
