Removal of endocrine disrupting chemicals using low pressure reverse osmosis membrane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are one of the major focuses of contaminants in current environmental issues, as they can cause adverse health effects on animals and human, particularly to endocrine function.

Biochar as an electron shuttle for reductive dechlorination of pentachlorophenol by Geobacter sulfurreducens

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2015
The reductive dechlorination of pentachlorophenol (PCP) by Geobacter sulfurreducens in the presence of different biochars was investigated to understand how biochars affect the bioreduction of environmental contaminants.

Surface Sulfate Modification Promoted Excitons Extraction of BiOBr Nanosheets for Efficient 1O2 Photosynthesis and Chlorophenols Dechlorination

open access: yesRare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Photocatalytic molecular oxygen (O2) activation provides a sustainable approach to produce singlet oxygen (1O2) for organic contaminants detoxification. However, the charge carriers‐involved pathway usually suffers from unsatisfactory 1O2 production efficiency owing to energy loss caused by photogenerated hole‐mediated superoxide species (•O2−

Regional differences and sources of organochlorine pesticides in soils surrounding chemical industrial parks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Concentrations of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs; dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethanes (DDTs), hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs), hexachlorobenzene (HCB)) were investigated in 105 soil samples collected in vicinity of the chemical industrial parks in Tianjin ...

Evaluation of the pollution pressures posed by groups of chemicals on British riverine invertebrate populations

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 106-127, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Globally, rivers receive a diverse range of chemicals, including metals, pesticides, persistent organic pollutants, petrochemicals, human and veterinary pharmaceuticals and personal care products. However, the extent to which these different chemical groups affect riverine invertebrate communities is not well defined.

A new split‐luciferase complementation assay identifies pentachlorophenol as an inhibitor of apoptosome formation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2019
The expense and time required for in vivo reproductive and developmental toxicity studies have driven the development of in vitro alternatives. Here, we used a new in vitro split luciferase‐based assay to screen a library of 177 toxicants for inhibitors ...

Biomass‐Derived Carbon Photocatalysts for Organic Pollutant Degradation: Strategies and Perspectives

open access: yesCarbon Neutralization, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2026.
Recent advances in biomass‐derived carbon photocatalysts are highlighted, focusing on synthesis, surface engineering, and mechanisms such as ROS generation and band‐gap tuning. Heteroatom doping, heterojunctions, and hybrid architectures boost visible‐light activity, while scalability and stability challenges are addressed for practical environmental ...
