Substrate Interactions during the Biodegradation of Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenze, and Xylene (BTEX) Hydrocarbons by the Fungus Cladophialophora sp. Strain T1 [PDF]
The soil fungus Cladophialophora sp. strain T1 (= ATCC MYA-2335) was capable of growth on a model water-soluble fraction of gasoline that contained all six BTEX components (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and the xylene isomers).

OPTIMIZING BTEX BIODEGRADATION UNDER DENITRIFYING CONDITIONS [PDF]
Abstract Laboratory tests were conducted to determine optimum conditions for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (collectively known as BTEX) biodegradation by aquifer microorganisms under denitrifying conditions. Microcosms, constructed with aquifer samples from Traverse City, Michigan, were amended with selected concentrations ...

Urban BTEX Spatiotemporal Exposure Assessment by Chemometric Expertise [PDF]
Normative regulations on benzene in fuels and urban management strategies are expected to improve air quality. The present study deals with the application of self-organizing maps (SOMs) in order to explore the spatiotemporal variations of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene levels in an urban atmosphere.

BTEX Maruziyet Verilerinin Sektörel Açıdan İncelenmesi
Benzen, toluen, etil benzen ve ksilen (BTEX) havadaki önemli toksik uçucu organik bileşiklerdendir. Kapalı çalışma ortamında boyalar, çözücüler, yapıştırıcılar ve temizlik maddeleri gibi çeşitli emisyon kaynaklarına sahiptirler. Ortama salındıklarında hızlı bir şeklide havaya karışırlar ve vücuda solunum yoluyla kolayca girebilirler.

Light-emitting diodes and photodiodes in the deep ultra-violet range for absorption photometry in liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis and gas sensing [PDF]
Absorbance measurement in the deep ultra-violet range (below 300 nm) has been one of the most widely used detection methods for analytical techniques as a large number of organic compounds have strong absorption bands in the deep UV region.
