Genetic manipulations of microorganisms for the degradation of hexachlorocyclohexane [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 1996 Hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) is an organochlorine insecticide which has been banned in technologically advanced countries. However, it is still in use in tropical countries for mosquito control and thus new areas continue to be contaminated. Anaerobic degradation of HCH isomers have been well documented but until recently there have been only a few ...

Environmental Risk Factors for Parkinson's Disease: A Critical Review and Policy Implications
Movement Disorders, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 204-221, February 2025.Abstract The age‐standardized prevalence of Parkinson's disease (PD) has increased substantially over the years and is expected to increase further. This emphasizes the need to identify modifiable risk factors of PD, which could form a logical entry point for the prevention of PD. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended reducing exposure to
