Historical reconstruction of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) exposures for workers in a capacitor manufacturing plant [PDF]
, 2013 We developed a semiquantitative job exposure matrix (JEM) for workers exposed to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) at a capacitor manufacturing plant from 1946 to 1977.

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

The Vernix Caseosa is the Main Site of Dioxin Excretion in the Human Foetus
Scientific Reports, 2017 Dioxins are highly toxic to foetuses and prenatal exposure leads to adverse health effects; however, the metabolic pathways involved in dioxin excretion are poorly understood. We determined the dynamics of maternal-to-foetal dioxin transfer during normal

Studies on gender-specific disruption of bone tissue homeostasis by dioxins [PDF]
, 2010 Dioxins are widespread environmental pollutants, known to cause immunosuppression, developmental and reproductive defects, as well as cancer. The toxic effects of dioxins are mediated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR, also referred to as the ...
