![]() Single-Digit Youth Groups 2: More Activities, Plus Mission Ideas Sale Price: $16.00 Eligible for free shipping!Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours See Reviews For This Product DescriptionGIVE EVEN MOREtoLESS This Volume 2 followup to Single-Digit Youth Groups focuses on activities for volunteers in churches with only a few youth. This book offers activities that can be used . . . even with only one or two youth. Volunteer workers will find articles that help develop skills for working with small youth groups. The book includes forms, checklists, and planning aids for a mission trip or service project . . . plus reproducible pages for many activities. This resource helps the small group identify what they can do in mission and service, helping to create life-changing experiences for youth. Even if your church has fewer than 10 teens, your numbers are never too small to offer a relevant youth ministry that powerfully affects their lives. In fact, smaller numbers allow you to devote more time and concentrate greater attention on your precious few. You can actually give more to fewer. Single-Digit youth resources are designed to engage every teen, at every level of maturity, without alienating all the rest. Even in a small church, you can retain and develop the full potential of your special few. Small churches and churches with small numbers of youth will be delighted that someone has finally written just for them! Author Marcey Balcomb helps them discover the joys and power of a single-digit youth group and provides the practical help they need. Features

![]() Micronuclei, DNA single-strand breaks and DNA-repair activity in mice exposed to 1,3-butadiene by inhalation [An article from: Mut.Res.-Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis] Sale Price: $10.95 Eligible for free shipping!Availability: Available for download now See Reviews For This Product DescriptionThis digital document is a journal article from Mut.Res.-Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis, published by Elsevier in 2006. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.Description: We investigated single-strand breaks and endonuclease III-sensitive sites in DNA along with @c-irradiation-specific DNA-repair activity in hepatocytes and frequencies of micronuclei in polychromatic bone-marrow erythrocytes of male NMRI mice (2 months old, weight 30-35g) during sub-acute inhalation exposure to 1,3-butadiene (28 days, 500mg/m^3) and up to 28 days after the exposure. Concentrations of 1,3-butadiene in blood, an indicator of internal exposure, moderately increased during the exposure period. The most interesting finding was that @c-irradiation-specific DNA-repair activity gradually increased during exposure, being significantly higher compared with control levels on days 7 and 28 of exposure (P=0.005 and 0.035, respectively), reaching a maximum on day 1 after the termination of exposure (P=0.003) and then returning to control levels. A significant correlation between @c-irradiation-specific DNA-repair activity and the concentration of 1,3-butadiene in blood (R=0.866, P=0.050) supports a possible induction of DNA-repair activity by the exposure to 1,3-butadiene and formation of its metabolites. The initial increase in micronucleus frequency (micronuclei per 1000 cells) in the exposed mice continuously decreased from 20.4+/-5.1 (day 3) to 15.1+/-3.2 (day 28) within the exposure period, and subsequently from 12.4+/-5.1 to 4.6+/-1.6 in the period following termination of the 1,3-butadiene exposure, while micronucleus frequencies in control animals were significantly lower (from 1.7+/-1.5 to 4.2+/-0.8). |
