Abstract The first report that certain chemicals have the potential of inducing heritable effects (mutation) appeared in the mid-1940’s. Two decades passed before this and subsequent observations were translated into a concern that some of the chemicals to which we are exposed may constitute a hazard to man’s genetic material and hence a threat to future generations of individuals. Such concern has led to the gradual evolution of the newest subdiscipline of toxicology, genetic toxicology. This subdiscipline is still young and faces many challenges in terms of developing sound toxicologic approaches for meeting specific evaluation needs in the interest of public health. This paper describes the current status of efforts in genetic toxicology and the types of steps which must be taken in order to begin to meet the needs and requirements of regulatory agencies.

An examination of some specialized lunar and planetary ephemerides has revealed inconsistencies in the adopted planetary masses, the presence of non-gravitational terms, and some outright numerical errors. They should be considered of temporary usefulness only, subject to subsequent amendment as required for the interpretation of observational data.

Solid state x-ray sensing systems have been used for many years in conjunction with scanning and transmission electron microscopes. Such systems conveniently provide users with elemental area maps and quantitative chemical analyses of samples. Improvements on these tools are currently sought in the following areas: sensitivity at longer and shorter x-ray wavelengths and minimization of noise-broadening of spectral lines. In this paper, we review basic limitations and recent advances in each of these areas. Throughout the review, we emphasize the systems nature of the problem. That is. limitations exist not only in the sensor elements but also in the preamplifier/amplifier chain and in the interfaces between these components.Solid state x-ray sensors usually function by way of incident photons creating electron-hole pairs in semiconductor material. This radiation-produced mobile charge is swept into external circuitry by electric fields in the semiconductor bulk.
