Genotoxic effect of Phenanthrene on Chironomus sancticaroli (Diptera: Chironomidae) [PDF]
Phenanthrene, a Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon, remains adsorbed to sedimentary particles in aquatic environments. It affects mainly benthic organisms, and is considered potentially genotoxic.

The air pollutant phenanthrene disrupts calcium cycling and alters repolarization in female sheep ventricular cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Multiple epidemiological studies link cardiac dysfunction with increased levels of air pollution. While cellular mechanisms underlying such dysfunction are yet to be fully elucidated, a proposed mediator of this effect is phenanthrene, a 3‐ringed ...

Genome analysis for the identification of genes involved in phenanthrene biodegradation pathway in Stenotrophomonas indicatrix CPHE1. Phenanthrene mineralization in soils assisted by integrated approaches [PDF]
Phenanthrene (PHE) is a highly toxic compound, widely present in soils. For this reason, it is essential to remove PHE from the environment. Stenotrophomonas indicatrix CPHE1 was isolated from an industrial soil contaminated by polycyclic aromatic ...

The Effect of Humic Acid on Phenanthrene Sorption in Kaolin Clay
Background & Objectives: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are considered as important organic contaminants due to their high toxicity and carcinogenic properties. Among PAHs, phenanthrene is found in most contaminated sites.

Effects of outer membrane vesicle formation, surface-layer production and nanopod development on the metabolism of phenanthrene by Delftia acidovorans Cs1-4. [PDF]
Nanopods are extracellular structures arising from the convergence of two widely distributed bacterial characteristics: production of outer membrane vesicles (OMV) and formation of surface layers (S-layers). Nanopod production is driven by OMV formation,
