The analysis of
BMC Microbiology, 2011 Background Clostridium difficile is the major cause of antibiotic associated diarrhoea and in recent years its increased prevalence has been linked to the emergence of hypervirulent clones such as the PCR-ribotype 027. Characteristically, C.

Removal of P-Cresol Sulfate by Hemodialysis [PDF]
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2005 Protein-bound solutes are poorly cleared by dialysis. Among the most extensively studied of these solutes is p-cresol, which has been shown to be toxic in vitro. This study examined the form in which p-cresol circulates and quantified its removal by hemodialysis.

Oxidation of p-Cresol by Ozonation
Sains Malaysiana, 2018 Oxidation of p-Cresol was investigated by using ozonation process. The aim of this research is to assess the effectiveness of ozonation on oxidation of micropollutant such as p-Cresol. Ozonation performance was evaluated based on p-Cresol concentration reduction and chemical oxidation demand (COD) reduction.

Effect Produced by a Mixture of Phenol, p-Cresol, and Acetophenone on Four Species of Microalgae: Tolerance, Biodegradation, and Metabolic Alterations [PDF]
ToxicsPhenol-derived compounds are among the most hazardous organic pollutants for aquatic environments due to their relatively high aqueous solubility. Microalgae harbor metabolic pathways that enable the degradation of phenolic compounds into less toxic ...
