Quantum Chemical Investigation of Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins, Dibenzofurans and Biphenyls: Relative Stability and Planarity Analysis [PDF]
All the possible polychlorinated aromatic compounds in the classes of dibenzodioxins (PCDDs), dibenzofurans (PCDFs), and biphenyls (PCBs) were studied by the quantum chemical methods of HF/6-311++G(d,p), B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p), and MP2/cc-pVTZ.

Assessment of Air Pollution with Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins (PCDDs) and Polychlorinated Dibenzofuranes (PCDFs) in Lithuania [PDF]
Polychlorinated dibenzodioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/F) are highly bioavailable in humans, either through direct inhalation or indirectly by trophic transfer from contaminated food or water.

On the Permeation of Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins and Dibenzofurans through Lipid Membranes: Classical MD and Hybrid QM/MM-EDA Analysis [PDF]
The permeation of dioxin-like pollutants, namely, chlorinated dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans, through lipid membranes has been simulated using classic molecular dynamics (CMD) combined with the umbrella sampling approach.

Associations Between Perinatal Dioxin Exposure and Circadian Clock Gene mRNA Expression in Children in Dioxin-Contaminated Areas of Vietnam [PDF]
We investigated the impact of perinatal dioxin exposure (indicated by dioxin levels in maternal breast milk) on clock gene mRNA expression in buccal cells of 9-year-old children from the Da Nang birth cohort in Vietnam using reverse transcription ...

Development of skin diseases following systemic exposure: example of dioxins [PDF]
Most skin manifestations of exposure to toxic compounds are a consequence of a direct contact with the toxicants. However, some toxicants may reach the skin following systemic exposure, and promote skin diseases.

We have synthesized a novel dioxin immunogen, 2‐adipamide‐7, 8‐dichlorodibenzodioxin‐BSA, with a view to generating antibodies suitable for use in an immunoaffinity column. The specificity of antisera raised in rabbits to this conjugate was assessed in a competitive enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay which was sensitive to 1 ng 2,3,7,8 ...
