A comprehensive review on the sources, environmental behavior, and degradation of alkylphenol ethoxylates and their metabolites in surface water and soils

Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEOs) and their metabolites, widely used in agricultural, industrial, and household products, are known endocrine disruptors. Since the 1980s, many countries have implemented restrictions on their production and use, necessitating an evaluation of these regulations by reviewing their source and environmental behavior ...

How Effective Are Cleaners With “Effective Microorganisms”?

Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbial‐based cleaning products containing active microorganisms, such as Bacillus spores and “Effective Microorganisms” (EM)—a blend of lactic acid bacteria, photosynthetic bacteria, and yeast—are marketed for their potential to clean and displace pathogens. This study evaluated the efficacy of EM‐based cleaners by analyzing their microbial

The PlcR Virulence Regulon of Bacillus cereus

PLoS ONE, 2008
PlcR is a Bacillus cereus transcriptional regulator, which activates gene expression by binding to a nucleotidic sequence called the 'PlcR box'. To build a list of all genes included in the PlcR regulon, a consensus sequence was identified by directed mutagenesis.

Crystal Structure–Activity Relationship of Some MeO Phenylacrylonitriles: Dual Antimicrobial–Cytotoxic Effects and in Silico Perspectives

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Methoxy‐phenylacrylonitriles (2a–c) are synthesized and characterized by fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and X‐ray crystallography (for 2a,b). Compound 2b shows selective cytotoxicity against MCF‐7 cells (IC50: 34 μM) and enhances activity against Gram‐positive bacteria. Molecular docking reveals strong
