Application of Multidimensional (Heart-Cut) Gas Chromatography to the Analysis of Complex Mixtures of Organic Pollutants in Environmental Samples

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2003
This contribution presents some applications developed in our laboratory of multidimensional (heart-cut) gas chromatography (MDGC) applied to the analysis of complex mixtures of pollutants in environmental samples.

Human Exposure to Polychlorinated Biphenyls and Polybrominated Biphenyls [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Health Perspectives, 1978
Although the polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been used in a wide variety of industrial applications in the U. S. from 1930 until 1970, when their distribution was voluntarily restricted to closed systems, there is scant information on human exposure to adverse human health effects in the U. S. In the U.

Levels and trends of persistent organic pollutants in ringed seals (Phoca hispida) from Central West Greenland, with particular focus on polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs)

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2008
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and the organochlorine compounds polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), DDTs, HCB, chlordane-related pesticides, HCH and toxaphene were analysed in blubber of juvenile ringed seals from Central West Greenland collected ...

Human body burden of persistent organic pollutants in breast milk in China

open access: yesZhongguo shipin weisheng zazhi, 2020
Human breast milk is recommended by World Health Organization as an ideal matrix for conducting human biological monitoring of persistent organic pollutants (POPs). And it is the main matrix to evaluate the efficacy of performing Stockholm Convention. In

Persistent organic pollutant burden, experimental POP exposure and tissue properties affect metabolic profiles of blubber from grey seal pups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are toxic, ubiquitous, resist breakdown, bioaccumulate in living tissue and biomagnify in food webs. POPs can also alter energy balance in humans and wildlife.

Bromine–lithium exchange: An efficient tool in the modular construction of biaryl ligands

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2011
Regioselective bromine–lithium exchange reactions on polybrominated biaryls enable the modular synthesis of various polysubstituted biphenyls such as bis(dialkylphosphino)-, bis(diarylphosphino)- and dialkyl(diaryl)phosphinobiphenyls. All permutations of

Recent developments in the analysis of polybrominated diphenyl ethers and polybrominated biphenyls in plastic

open access: yesReviews in Analytical Chemistry, 2016
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), heavily used as flame retardant in plastics, are harmful to environment and human health. It is of great importance for method development to determine PBDEs and PBBs in plastics.

Association between several persistent organic pollutants and thyroid hormone levels in serum among the pregnant women of Korea

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2013
Persistent organic pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are of global concern because of their widespread contamination and adverse health effects.

Human developmental toxicity mechanism of polybrominated biphenyl exposure and health risk regulation strategy for special populations

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) can bioaccumulate in nature and are toxic to humans. Long-time exposure to PBBs in pregnant women can lead to the birth of an infant with abnormal conditions.
