Kinetics of Biphenyl and Polychlorinated Biphenyl Metabolism in Soil [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985
The metabolism of 14 C-labeled PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), which comprised the Aroclor 1242 mixture, was greatly enhanced by the addition of biphenyl (BP) to soil. After 49 days, only 25 to 35% of the original PCBs remained in the soil, and 48 to 49% was converted to 14 CO 2

Synthesis of highly substituted fluorenones via metal-free TBHP-promoted oxidative cyclization of 2-(aminomethyl)biphenyls. Application to the total synthesis of nobilone

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2021
Highly substituted fluorenones are readily prepared in mostly fair to good yields via metal- and additive-free TBHP-promoted cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) of readily accessible N-methyl-2-(aminomethyl)biphenyls and 2-(aminomethyl)biphenyls.

Antibiotic resistance patterns in soils across the Scottish landscape

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
The environment disseminates antimicrobial-resistance genes; however, it remains challenging to distinguish whether human activities exacerbate antimicrobial resistance or what is natural.

Thermodynamics of Reversible Hydrogen Storage: Are Methoxy-Substituted Biphenyls Better through Oxygen Functionality?

open access: yesHydrogen, 2023
The reversible hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of aromatic molecules, known as liquid organic hydrogen carriers, is considered as an attractive option for the safe storage and release of elemental hydrogen.

Polychlorinated Biphenyls in Food [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Science & Technology, 2020
We measured the concentrations of 205 polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners in 26 food items: beef steak, butter, canned tuna, catfish, cheese, eggs, french fries, fried chicken, ground beef, ground pork, hamburger, hot dog, ice cream, liver, luncheon meat, margarine, meat-free dinner, milk, pizza, poultry, salmon, sausage, shrimp, sliced ham ...

Placental transfer of a hydroxylated polychlorinated biphenyl and effects on fetal and maternal thyroid hormone homeostasis in the rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Earlier studies at our laboratory indicated that several hydroxylated polychlorinated biphenyls (OH-PCBs) detected in human blood could specifically inhibit thyroxine (T4) transport by competitive binding to the thyroid hormone transport protein ...

Classical molecular dynamics investigations of biphenyl-based carbon nanomembranes

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2014
Background: Free-standing carbon nanomembranes (CNM) with molecular thickness and macroscopic size are fascinating objects both for fundamental reasons and for applications in nanotechnology. Although being made from simple and identical precursors their
