Biodegradation of Mixed PAHs by PAH-Degrading Endophytic Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2016
Endophytic bacteria can promote plant growth, induce plant defence mechanisms, and increase plant resistance to organic contaminants. The aims of the present study were to isolate highly PAH-degrading endophytic bacteria from plants growing at PAH-contaminated sites and to evaluate the capabilities of these bacteria to degrade polycyclic aromatic ...

Characterization, sources and risk assessment of PM2.5-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitrated PAHs (NPAHs) in Harbin, a cold city in Northern China

open access: yesJournal of Cleaner Production, 2020
Inhalation of atmospheric particulates is an significant way for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and substituted PAHs (SPAHs) to enter the human lungs. Some SPAHs are more virulent than parent PAHs.

Need of Improvement in Timing of Prophylactic Antibiotic in Elective Surgery

open access: yesAsian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2012
Objective: Infections in surgery are major concern of morbidity, mortality, and costs. Timely antibiotic prophylaxis (AP) before incision ensures optimum concentration of AP in blood and tissues to prevent surgical site infections (SSIs). However, proper
