Clarifying carcinogenicity of ethylbenzene [PDF]
Ethylbenzene has been evaluated for carcinogenic activity in Fischer rats and B6C3F1 mice exposed by inhalation (Chan et al., 1998; Chan, 1999) and in Sprague-Dawley rats after oral exposure (Maltoni et al., 1985,1997). Bioassay findings are summarized below to expand on those not stated clearly or completely in Saghir et al. (2010).

C1-C8 volatile organic compounds in the atmosphere of Hong Kong: Overview of atmospheric processing and source apportionment [PDF]
We present measurements of C1-C8 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at four sites ranging from urban to rural areas in Hong Kong from September 2002 to August 2003. A total of 248 ambient VOC samples were collected.

Selective Hydrodemethylation of Methylalkylbenzenes on Potassium Hydride
Selective catalytic hydrodealkylation of methylalkylbenzenes on carbon‐supported potassium hydride is reported. The reaction exhibits a reactivity trend of 1° ∼ 2° ∼ 3° < CH3, which is opposite to traditional dealkylation and hydrodealkylation. DFT calculations on the (001) facet of KH with ortho‐ethyltoluene suggest that selectivity is controlled by ...

Emission characteristics of nonmethane hydrocarbons from private cars and taxis at different driving speeds in Hong Kong [PDF]
Vehicular emissions are the major sources of a number of air pollutants including nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) in urban area. The emission composition and emission factors of NMHCs from vehicles are currently lacking in Hong Kong.

Harnessing Photoenzymatic Systems for Intermolecular C–H Fluorination
Despite the remarkable versatility of enzymes for catalyzing complex organic transformations under mild aqueous conditions, no biocatalytic system has been reported for intermolecular C–H fluorination. A radical photoenzymatic approach is introduced that leverages a designed de novo protein scaffold with an unnatural amino acid to achieve precise ...

Biokinetic coefficients determination of a MBR for styrene and ethylbenzene as substrate base on Andrews model [PDF]
In this study, a lab-scale membrane bioreactor (MBR) was operated for a period of more than 10 months to determine the biokinetic coefficients of the system under the hydraulic retention times (HRT) of 20, 15 and 10 hrs and sludge retention times (SRT ...
