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

Impact of carwash discharge on stormwater quality (Toulouse, France) [PDF]
, 2010 The contribution of discharge from carwashes to pollutant levels in stormwater was evaluated. Five carwashes and two outlets in the city of Toulouse (France) were selected. Water samples were collected from December 2006 to December 2007.

Polychlorinated biphenyls: New evidence from the last decade
Toxicology and industrial health, 2016 Millions of pounds of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) compounds have been produced in multiple countries for industrial applications over the last several decades. PCB exposure induces various adverse health effects in animals and humans.

A survey of the spatial, altitudinal, and temporal distribution of chlorinated paraffins in the Alpine region [PDF]
, 2010 Chlorinated paraffins (CPs) have been produced since 1930 and are still used in a wide variety of consumer products and industrial processes. In the last decades, CPs represented one of the largest group of chlorinated hydrocarbons produced in North ...

Lithium/Element Exchange as an Efficient Tool for Accessing Atropo-enriched Biaryls via Arynes
CHIMIA, 2016 This account documents the development of transition metal-free, aryne-mediated aryl-aryl coupling, the 'ARYNE coupling', which began in 2001 in Lausanne. ortho,ortho'-Di-, tri- and even tetrasubstituted biphenyls have now become accessible on a

Bromine–lithium exchange: An efficient tool in the modular construction of biaryl ligands
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2011 Regioselective bromine–lithium exchange reactions on polybrominated biaryls enable the modular synthesis of various polysubstituted biphenyls such as bis(dialkylphosphino)-, bis(diarylphosphino)- and dialkyl(diaryl)phosphinobiphenyls. All permutations of

Native Phytoremediation Potential of Urtica dioica for Removal of PCBs and Heavy Metals Can Be Improved by Genetic Manipulations Using Constitutive CaMV 35S Promoter. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Although stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) has been shown to reduce HM (heavy metal) content in soil, its wider phytoremediation potential has been neglected.
