Bioenergetic strategy for the biodegradation of p-cresol by the unicellular green alga Scenedesmus obliquus. [PDF]
Cultures from the unicellular green alga Scenedesmus obliquus biodegrade the toxic p-cresol (4-methylphenol) and use it as alternative carbon/energy source. The biodegradation procedure of p-cresol seems to be a two-step process.

p-Cresol affects reactive oxygen species generation, cell cycle arrest, cytotoxicity and inflammation/atherosclerosis-related modulators production in endothelial cells and mononuclear cells. [PDF]
AIMS: Cresols are present in antiseptics, coal tar, some resins, pesticides, and industrial solvents. Cresol intoxication leads to hepatic injury due to coagulopathy as well as disturbance of hepatic circulation in fatal cases.

An efficient and highly selective ortho-tert-butylation of p-cresol with methyl tert-butyl ether catalyzed by sulfonated ionic liquids [PDF]
A novel series of sulfonic acid-functionalized ionic liquids (SFILs) was found to act as efficient catalysts for ortho-tert-butylation of p-cresol with methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) as the tert-butylating agent without an added solvent.

A simulated colorimetric INHIBIT logic gate based on 2-(2-thiazolylazo)-p-cresol [PDF]
2-(2-Thiazolylazo)-p-cresol system achieved distinct optical output signal by controlling pH and mercury-ion complexation. The 2-(2-thiazolylazo)-p-cresol with mercury ion existed as an equilibrium mixture of both an azo and hydrazone tautomeric forms at

Anaerobic oxidation of p-cresol by a denitrifying bacterium [PDF]
Metabolism of p-cresol (pCr) under nitrate-reducing conditions is mediated by the denitrifying bacterial isolate PC-07. The methyl substituent of the substrate is oxidized anaerobically by whole-cell suspensions of PC-07 through a series of dehydrogenation and hydration reactions to yield p-hydroxybenzoate (pOHB) in stoichiometric proportions.

Electrochemical incineration of cresols: A comparative study between PbO2 and boron-doped diamond anodes [PDF]
The electrooxidation of aqueous solutions containing 5 mM of o-, m- and p-cresol at pH 4.0 has been investigated using a flow filter-press reactor with a boron-doped diamond (BDD) under galvanostatic electrolysis. All cresols are degraded at similar rate

Effects of p-cresol on oxidative stress, glutathione depletion, and necrosis in HepaRG cells: comparative effects to other uremic toxins and role of p-cresol glucuronide formation [PDF]
Background: The toxicological effects of p-cresol have primarily been attributed to its metabolism end products; however, very little human toxicological data are available in the key organ (i.e.
