Halogenated organic compounds have found widespread used in industry and household, for that reason their presence in the environment have been controled since many years ago. Several detection techniques to know the presence of these compounds in the environment have been developed.

Aox gene structure, transcript variation and expression in plants [PDF]
Alternative oxidase (Aox) has been proposed as a functional marker for breeding stress tolerant plant varieties. This requires presence of polymorphic Aox allele sequences in plants that affect plant phenotype in a recognizable way. In this review, we examine the hypothesis that organization of genomic Aox sequences and gene expression patterns are ...

Mechanisms of AOX removal during biological treatment
It is well known that a portion of the AOX generated during the bleaching of chemical pulps will degrade to inorganic chloride when alkali and heat are added to the waste stream. As reported by others, this hydrolysis can potentially occur in the mill sewer system as well as within the wastewater treatment process.

Growth hormone (GH) diminishes adipose tissue mass in vivo and prolactin (PRL) can also modulate adipocyte metabolism. Both GH and PRL are potent activators of STAT5 and exert a variety of effects on adipocyte gene expression. In this study, we have demonstrated that GH and PRL increase the mRNA of acyl CoA oxidase in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

AOX – a functional marker for efficient cell reprogramming under stress? [PDF]
Functional markers for stress tolerance can be used in plant breeding to identify genotypes with high yield stabilities under various conditions. Thus, a good marker should show a strong correlation with favourable adaptive plant behaviour. The efficient reprogramming of target cells for yield determination is currently considered to be the most ...

Anaerobic and Aerobic Treatment for AOX Removal
A two-year study has focused on AOX removal from bleaching wastewaters in anaerobic and aerobic biological treatment, using bench scale bioreactors operated in parallel and in series. Significantly higher removals have been found in anaerobic than in aerobic treatment.

Intra and Inter-Spore Variability in Rhizophagus irregularis AOX Gene [PDF]
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are root-inhabiting fungi that form mutualistic symbioses with their host plants. AMF symbiosis improves nutrient uptake and buffers the plant against a diversity of stresses. Rhizophagus irregularis is one of the most widespread AMF species in the world, and its application in agricultural systems for yield ...

Kinetics of AOX Formation in Chlorine Dioxide Bleaching of Bagasse Pulp
In this paper, a kinetic model of the first chlorine dioxide bleaching stage (D0) in an elemental chlorine-free (ECF) bleaching sequence is presented for bagasse pulps. The model is based on the rate of adsorbable organic halogen (AOX) formation.

Alternative oxidase (AOX) transfers electrons from ubiquinone to oxygen in the respiratory chain of plant mitochondria. It is widely accepted that AOX functions as a mechanism decreasing the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during ...

Effect of lignin structure on adsorbable organic halogens formation in chlorine dioxide bleaching [PDF]
Adsorbable organic halogens (AOX) are formed in pulp bleaching as a result of the reaction of residual lignin with chlorine dioxide. The natural structure of lignin is very complex and it tends to be damaged by various extraction methods. All the factors
