Congener specific analysis of polychlorinated terphenyls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In order to identify and to quantify polychlorinated terphenyls (PCT) in environmental matrices, the chro- matographic behavior of coplanar and non-coplanar congeners was evaluated.

The assessment of content polychlorinated biphenyls in soils of Moscow

open access: yesRUDN Journal of Ecology and Life Safety, 2014
There are given the measurement results of polychlorinated biphenyls concentration in the soils at a different functional areas of Yasenevo district in Moscow. Found that the major source of PCB in the district’s soils today are motorways.

Mussels drive polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) biomagnification in a coastal food web

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Despite international regulation, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are routinely detected at levels threatening human and environmental health. While previous research has emphasized trophic transfer as the principle pathway for PCB accumulation, our ...

Killer Whales in the Central Tropical Pacific: Occurrence, Resightings, Morphology, and Acoustics

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Compared to their well‐studied coastal temperate counterparts, killer whales (Orcinus orca) in tropical‐subtropical and oceanic areas are under‐documented. We used sighting, photo‐identification, and acoustic data of killer whales in the central tropical Pacific (CTP), collected from multiple platforms between 2002 and 2023, to assess their ...

Source apportionment of polychlorinated biphenyls in surface water and sediments from River Otamiri, Imo State

open access: yesScientific African, 2023
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of toxic, long-lasting substances that have a high propensity to accumulate in the environment as organic pollutants which can cause potential risk to the environment.

A reassessment of the nomenclature of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) metabolites. [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Health Perspectives, 2004
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a widespread class of persistent organic chemicals that accumulate in the environment and humans and are associated with a broad spectrum of health effects. PCB biotransformation has been shown to lead to two classes of PCB metabolites that are present as contaminant residues in the tissues of selected biota ...

Sewage sludge application on agricultural soils in Wallonia: Long‐term monitoring and impact assessment of practices

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract In the context of sustainable agriculture and circular resource management, the use of wastewater treatment plant secondary sludge in agriculture represents an interesting opportunity. Its use is strictly regulated to guarantee environmental and food safety through analysis of both sludge and soils on which it was spread.
