Applications of polychlorinated biphenyls

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2010
In the 50 years or so that polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were manufactured in the USA and elsewhere, they were widely used in numerous applications because of their desirable properties. The purpose of this paper is to review and summarize in one place the factual information about the uses of PCBs, as well as to correct some misconceptions that ...

Polychlorinated biphenyls in the environment

Journal of Chromatography A, 1992
This review surveys the problems arising from the release of PCBs into the environment from the point of view of the analytical chemist. These problems are very complex and interdependent and so it is essential to recognize their mutual links rather than to separate one problem from another (sources of contamination, fate in the environment, toxic ...

Polychlorinated biphenyls.

Canadian journal of ophthalmology. Journal canadien d'ophtalmologie, 1990
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and their contaminants have definite ocular and dermatologic side effects, often directly related to the serum level of these compounds. These are usually the first symptoms and signs to appear. Other side effects are far more variable, and the carcinogenic role of PCBs and their contaminants remains controversial.

Strategies for bioremediation of polychlorinated biphenyls

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2004
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are serious environmental pollutants that threaten both the natural ecosystem and human health. For remediation of environments contaminated with PCBs, several approaches that exploit the potential of microbes to degrade PCBs have been developed.
