Mixture of organic pollutants is associated with cognitive aging
Abstract INTRODUCTION Environmental organic pollutants impact brain function and cognitive aging, but the effect of real‐world complex mixtures of these pollutants is unexplored. METHODS Using data collected at two time points from 170 cognitively normal adults, we used hierarchical Bayesian kernel machine regression to examine the association between ...

Multiple OCP isomers and/or metabolites along with their parent compounds were detected in commonly consumed fruits and vegetables of Bangladesh, possibly attributed to both recently and historically applied OCPs. However, all the detected values were below 0.01 mg/kg, indicating no potential human health risks through dietary intake. ABSTRACT Globally,

ASSESSMENT OF LINDANE (GAMMA HCH) RESIDUES IN WATER AND MILK SAMPLES IN PALAKKAD DISTRICT [PDF]
Organochlorine pesticides are ubiquitous and persistent organic pollutants used widely throughout the world. The organochlorines are more potent due to their prolonged persistence, lipophilic nature and tendency to accumulate in anima! and plant tissues.

Microscopic Studies on Erythrocytes of Channa punctata Exposed to Commercial Grade Lindane
Light and scanning electron microscopic studies of erythrocytes of Channa punctata exposed to two sublethal doses of lindane over a period of 21 days revealed myriads of anomalies. High frequency of micronucleus appeared progressively in the erythrocyte,

MgO-mediated activation of active carbon as an affordable strategy to “in situ” degradation of lindane in contaminated soils [PDF]
The accumulation in soil landfills of toxic and persistent lindane, widely used as an insecticide, triggers the risk of leaching with the concomitant contamination of surrounding rivers. Thus, viable remediation to eliminate in situ high concentrations
