The Thermal degradation of Bisphenol A Polycarbonate in Air [PDF]
The thermal degradation of polycarbonate in air was studied as a function of mass loss using TGA/FTIR, GC/MS and LC/MS. In the main degradation region, 480–560 °C, the assigned structures of smaller molecules and linear molecules that evolved in air were

Gene Expression Modulation of Markers Involved in Bone Formation and Resorption by Bisphenol A, Bisphenol F, Bisphenol S, and Bisphenol AF. [PDF]
Background: Bisphenol A (BPA) and its analogs (BPF, BPS, and BPAF) are recognized for inducing detrimental effects on various tissues, including bone. Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate their impact on information and repair processes, specifically focusing on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), transforming growth factor β1 ...

Evidence linking exposure of fish primary macrophages to antibiotics activates the NF-kB pathway. [PDF]
Low doses of antibiotics are ubiquitous in the marine environment and may exert negative effects on non-target aquatic organisms. Using primary macrophages of common carp, we investigated the mechanisms of action following exposure to several common ...

Endocrine disruptors in bottled mineral water : total estrogenic burden and migration from plastic bottles [PDF]
Background, aim, and scope Food consumption is an important route of human exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals. So far, this has been demonstrated by exposure modeling or analytical identification of single substances in foodstuff (e.g ...

Pivalolactone, 2. Copolyester synthesis via interchange reactions with polypivalolactone [PDF]
The synthesis of copolyesters via interchange reactions of polypivalolactone (PPVL) with several compounds was studied. The synthetical procedures are two-stage melt processes: in the first stage ester bonds in the polymer chain are cleaved and new ...

Neonatal exposure to xenoestrogens impairs the ovarian response to gonadotropin treatment in lambs [PDF]
Bisphenol A (BPA) and diethylstilbestrol (DES) are xenoestrogens which have been associated with altered effects on reproduction. We hypothesized that neonatal xenoestrogen exposure affects the ovarian functionality in lambs.

Processing waste printed circuit boards for material recovery [PDF]
PURPOSE We have investigated the use of pyrolysis for the processing of waste printed circuit boards (PCBs). The aim was to make the process of separating the organic, metallic, and glass fibre fractions of PCBs much easier and therefore make ...
