Evaluation of the Most Current and Effective Methods in the Analysis of Chlorinated Dioxins in Ground Beef

The Scientific World Journal, 2003
Chlorinated dioxins are the group of environmental pollutants consisting of 210 chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans. They are highly toxic and persistent. They are lipophilic and can easily biomagnify in the food chain, hence posing a serious

The Need and Potential of Biosensors to Detect Dioxins and Dioxin-Like Polychlorinated Biphenyls along the Milk, Eggs and Meat Food Chain

, 2011
Dioxins and dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL-PCBs) are hazardous toxic, ubiquitous and persistent chemical compounds, which can enter the food chain and accumulate up to higher trophic levels.

Potential role of 2,2'-biphenylquinones in the carcinogenic/anti-cancer activity of dioxins

, 2008
Modes of carcinogenicity for the well-known environmental contaminant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) have been investigated over the past several decades. However, the mechanisms underlying TCDD carcinogenicity are still unclear.
