Aerobic biodegradation of biphenyl and polychlorinated biphenyls by Arctic soil microorganisms [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1997
We examined the degradation of biphenyl and the commercial polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixture Aroclor 1221 by indigenous Arctic soil microorganisms to assess both the response of the soil microflora to PCB pollution and the potential of the microflora for bioremediation.

Streptavidins Coordinate Biotin Sequestration and Self‐Resistance Within a Biotin‐Pathway Antibiotic Network

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A conserved genomic region between two streptavidin genes in Streptomyces packages biosynthetic gene clusters for diverse biotin‐pathway antibiotics: acidomycin, stravidin, the new non‐proteinogenic amino acid ANDA, and the new BioA inhibitor α‐methyl‐KAPA.

Persistent organic pollutants and cognitive decline among middle-aged or older adults in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Persistent organic pollutants may negatively impact cognition; however, associations between persistent organic pollutants and changes in cognition among United States Hispanic/Latino adults have not been investigated.

Cucurbit[8]Uril Achieved Single‐Molecule Chiral Transfer to Supramolecular Circularly Polarized Luminescence

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A single‐molecule cascade supramolecular system comprising L/D‐FPy, CB[8], and SC4AD serves as an efficient light‐harvesting platform. It facilitates cascade energy transfer and chiral transfer to acceptor dyes. Co‐assembly with a PVA matrix produces a multicolor solid film that exhibits enhanced luminescence dissymmetry factors (glum), enabling ...

Iron‐Photocatalyzed C(sp3)–H Phosphonylation of Alkanes

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Alkyl phosphonates are valuable motifs that can be prepared by phosphonylations of various common functional groups. However, direct phosphonylations of C(sp3)–H bonds are limited to activated positions. Herein, we report an iron‐photocatalyzed phosphonylation of unactivated C(sp3)–H bonds using a novel phosphite radical trap, which is equipped with an

POLYBROMINATED DIPHENYL ETHERS (PBDEs) AND POLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYLS (PCBs) IN HOUSEHOLD DUST IN BIRMINGHAM, UK. [PDF]

open access: yes
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic pollutants that were used primarily as insulating fluids in electrical equipment and were banned in the 1970s, even so they are still being found in humans.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in sediment core MAR16-02 from the Eure River, France

open access: yes, 2020
We measured polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in sediment cores (collected in two independant ponds) to study the relationships between sediment deposits characteristics and organic contaminants, and the ...

Carboxyphenolate Coordination Frameworks for High‐Voltage Calcium Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A hexaanionic carboxyphenolate coordination framework, Ca2‐M‐THBPD (M = Mg, Ca, Ba), exhibits ligand‐centered enolate‐quinonoid redox activity enabling tunable, high‐voltage Ca2+ storage (3.5 V vs Ca2+/Ca) modulated by spectator cations. The amorphous structure accommodates reversible divalent‐ion insertion, contributing to enhanced cycling stability ...

Asymmetrically Fluorinated Phenyl 4‐biphenylcarboxylate Motifs as a Design Principle for Enantiotropic Ferroelectric Liquid Crystals

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The effect of the structural arrangement of DIO and its analogs on ferroelectric phases is explored. Consequently, it is found that an asymmetrically fluorinated phenyl 4‐biphenylcaroboxylate skeleton is one of the favorable structural motifs for the emergence of enantiotropic ferroelectric liquid crystal phases.

Brutalist Structures – Polychlorinated Biphenyls

open access: yes, 2021
Until they were banned by the Federal Government in 1978, Polychlorinated Biphenyls or PCBs, were used extensively as sealants in Brutalist structures across the United States.
