Mary Ochsenhirt Amdur (February 18, 1921 – February 16, 1998) was an American toxicologist and public health researcher who worked primarily on pollution. She was charged with studying the effects of the 1948 Donora smog, specifically looking into the effects of inhaling sulfuric acid by experimenting on guinea pigs. Her findings on the respiratory effects related to sulfuric acid led to her being threatened, her funding being pulled, and her losing her job at the Harvard School of Public Health in 1953. Undeterred, she carried on her research in a different role at Harvard, and subsequently at MIT and New York University. Despite the early controversy related to her work, it was used in the creation of standards in air pollution, and towards the end of her life she received numerous award

  • كانت ماري آمدور باحثة في مجال الصحة العامة وعلم السموم وعملت بشكل رئيسي على موضوع التلوث فقد كانت مكلفة بدراسة تأثيرات ضباب دونورا الدخاني عام 1948، وبحثت بشكل محدد عن تأثير استنشاق حمض الكبريتيك من خلال تجارب على خنزير غينيا (نوع من أنواع القوارض لا يمت بصلة للخنازير وموطنها ليس غينيا). أدت النتائج التي توصلت إليها حول تأثير حمض الكبريتيك على الجهاز التنفسي إلى تعرضها للتهديد وسحب التمويل وإلى فقدانها وظيفتها في جامعة هارفرد كلية الصحة العامة في عام 1953.

  • Mary Ochsenhirt Amdur (18 de febrero de 1921 - 16 de febrero de 1998) fue una toxicóloga estadounidense e investigadora de salud pública que trabajó principalmente en el estudio de los efectos de la contaminación. Ella fue acusada de estudiar los efectos de la niebla tóxica de Donora de 1948, porque analizó específicamente los efectos de inhalar ácido sulfúrico al experimentar con conejillos de Indias. Sus hallazgos sobre los efectos respiratorios relacionados con el ácido sulfúrico la llevaron a verse amenazada, a su financiación, y a perder su trabajo en la Escuela de Salud Pública de Harvard en 1953. Sin inmutarse por este revés, continuó su investigación en una papel diferente en Harvard, y posteriormente en el Instituto de Tecnología de Massachusetts ( MIT) y la Universidad de Nueva Y (es)

Ela era encarregada de estudar os efeitos da Névoa de Danora de 1948, então ela pesquisou especificamente os efeitos de inspirar ácido sulfúrico, fazendo experimentos em porquinhos-da-índia. Suas descobertas sobre os efeitos respiratórios relacionados ao ácido sulfúrico, resultou em uma ameaça do seu patrocínio ser retirado e de perder seu emprego na Havard School of Public Health, em 1953. Sem se deixar intimidar, ela continuou a pesquisa em um papel diferente em Harvard, e, logo depois, no MIT e na New York University.
