The toxicological profile of polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) [PDF]

Science of The Total Environment, 2022
The legacy of polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) manufactured during the last century continues to persist in the environment, food and humans. Metrological advances have improved characterisation of these occurrences, enabling studies on the effects of exposure to focus on congener groups and individual PCNs. Liver and adipose tissue show the highest

Atmospheric polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) in India and Pakistan [PDF]

Science of The Total Environment, 2014
Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) are now under review by the Stockholm Convention as candidates for persistent organic pollutants (POPs) due to their persistence, toxicity, bioaccumulation, and long-range atmospheric transport. Data on PCN levels are sparse in South Asia.

Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) in food and humans

Environment International, 2017
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) are legacy contaminants that are listed by the Stockholm convention, initially for reduction of inadvertent production and ultimately, for elimination. They originate through releases from older electrical equipment, inadvertent contamination in industrial chemicals ...

Artificial Intelligence-Powered One Health: A Predictive Framework for Managing Persistent Chemical Threats across Human, Animal, and Environmental Systems. [PDF]

Glob Chall
Chemical pollution from persistent organic pollutants, polyfluoroalkyl substances, and heavy metals threatens humans, animals, and ecosystems, yet current monitoring remains fragmented and reactive. This review proposes an AI‐augmented One Health framework combining geospatial source tracking, multispecies exposome reconstruction, predictive toxicology,

Pathways to Aromatics in the Catalytic Pyrolysis of a Polyvinylchloride Model Compound Revealed by Operando Photoelectron Photoion Coincidence Spectroscopy. [PDF]

ChemSusChem
How are aromatics formed during catalytic PVC pyrolysis? By utilizing photoelectron photoion coincidence spectroscopy, the cross‐linking reaction mechanism is unveiled to proceed via butadiene dimerization and trimerization, yielding 5‐ or 6‐membered ring species, which are the precursors for benzene, toluene, and xylenes.

Polychlorinated Naphthalenes and Polychlorinated Biphenyls in Benthic Organisms of a Great Lakes Food Chain [PDF]

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2004
Invasion of zebra mussels, Dreissena polymorpha, and round gobies, Neogobius melanostomus, into the Great Lakes has altered the food web structure and thereby the pathways of toxic contaminants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs). In this study, concentrations of PCNs and PCBs were measured in organisms of a

Removal of polychlorinated naphthalenes by desulfurization and emissions of polychlorinated naphthalenes from sintering plant. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2016
AbstractThe sintering flue gas samples were collected at the inlets and outlets of the desulfurization systems to evaluate the influence of the systems on PCNs emission concentrations, profiles, and emission factors. The PCNs concentrations at the inlets and outlets were 27888–153672 pg m−3 and 11988–42245 pg m−3,respectively.

Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) in foods: sources, analytical methodology, occurrence and human exposure

, 2013
Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) have long been recognised as legacy contaminants originating through releases from electrical equipment and industrial chemicals and processes. In recent years, the advances in measurement techniques have allowed characterisation of total PCN occurrence, yielding more specific concentration data including individual ...
