One aspect of enzyme cytochemistry is, whether all macrophage lysosomal hydrolytical enzymes are present in an active form, or are activated upon stimulation. Integrated morphometrical and chemical analysis has been chosen as a tool to illucidate that cytochemical problem. Mouse peritoneal resident macrophages have been used as a model for this complicated integration of morphometrical and element-related data. Only aldehyde-fixed cells were treated with three cytochemical reactions to detect different enzyme activities within one cell (for details see [1,2]). The enzyme-related precipitates anticipated to be differentiated, were:(1).lysosomal barium and sulphur from aryl sulphatase activity,(2).lysosomal cerium and phosphate from acid phosphatase activity and(3).platinum/di-amino-benzidine( D A B) complex from endogenous peroxidase activity.

Quality control of data collected in the United States by the Cancer End Results Program utilizing punchcards prepared by participating registries in accordance with a Uniform Punchcard Code is discussed. Existing arrangements decentralize responsibility for editing and related data processing to the local registries with centralization of tabulating and statistical services in the End Results Section, National Cancer Institute. The most recent deck of punchcards represented over 600,000 cancer patients; approximately 50,000 newly diagnosed cases are added annually.Mechanical editing and inspection of punchcards and field audits are the principal tools for quality control. Mechanical editing of the punchcards includes testing for blank entries and detection of in-admissable or inconsistent codes. Highly improbable codes are subjected to special scrutiny. Field audits include the drawing of a 1-10 percent random sample of punchcards submitted by a registry; the charts are .then reabstracted and recoded by a NCI staff member and differences between the punchcard and the results of independent review are noted.

Application of predictive modeling approaches is able solve the problem of the missing data. There are a lot of studies that investigate the effects of missing values on qualitative or quantitative modeling, but only few publications have been<br>discussing it in case of applications to nanotechnology related data. Current project aimed at the development of multi-nano-read-across modeling technique that helps in predicting the toxicity of different species: bacteria, algae, protozoa, and mammalian cell lines. In this study, the experimental toxicity for 184 metal- and silica oxides (30 unique chemical types) nanoparticles from 15 experimental datasets was analyzed. A hybrid quantitative multi-nano-read-across approach that combines interspecies correlation analysis and self-organizing map analysis was developed. At the first step, hidden patterns of toxicity among the nanoparticles were identified using a combination of methods. Then the developed model that based on categorization of metal oxide nanoparticles’ toxicity outcomes was evaluated by means of combination of supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques to find underlying factors responsible for toxicity.
