Congener specific analysis of polychlorinated terphenyls [PDF]
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.

Degradation of Polychlorinated Biphenyl Metabolites by Naphthalene-Catabolizing Enzymes [PDF]
ABSTRACT The ability of the dehydrogenase and ring cleavage dioxygenase of the naphthalene degradation pathway to transform 3,4-dihydroxylated biphenyl metabolites was investigated. 1,2-Dihydro-1,2-dihydroxynaphthalene dehydrogenase was expressed as a histidine-tagged protein.

State‐of‐the‐Art, Insights, and Perspectives for MOFs‐Nanocomposites and MOF‐Derived (Nano)Materials
Different approaches to MOF‐NP composite formation, such as ship‐in‐a‐bottle, bottle‐around‐the‐ship and in situ one‐step synthesis, are used. Owing to synergistic effects, the advantageous features of the components of the composites are beneficially combined, and their individual drawbacks are mitigated.

Global Contamination Trends of Persistent Organic Chemicals [PDF]
Environmental pollution by man-made persistent organic chemicals (POCs) has been a serious global issue for over half a century. Exposure to certain POCs may result in environmental and health effects including skin disorders, liver damage, birth defects,

Micropollutants and Their Interactions With Relevant Environmental Viruses
Environmental micropollutants increase virus stability. ABSTRACT Emerging pollutants encompass a diverse array of chemicals classified as micropollutants, including pharmaceuticals and microplastics (MPs). Viruses are known to adsorb onto MPs, including binding to bacterial biofilms that form the plastisphere.

Extent and toxicity of contaminated marine sediments in Southeastern Florida [PDF]
Thirty sites were sampled in southern Biscayne Bay and Manatee Bay in December 1999 to determine the extent of toxicity in sediments. Analyses and assays included: pesticides and phenols in seawater; chemical contaminants in sediment; amphipod mortality,

Simple analysis of naphthalene in human whole blood and urine by headspace capillary gas chromatography with large volume injection [PDF]
Naphthalene is still being sold as a moth repellant; there is a possibility that accidental ingestion of such a product by a small infant causes serious poisoning.

The authors investigate how Shewanella oneidensis navigates toxic environments to access nutrients in a simplified soil environment, combining modeling and experimental data. Their results reveal that motility, rather than chemotaxis, enables bacterial migration into antibiotic‐laden zones to reduce nitrate, suggesting a key mechanism for pollutant ...

Health risks arising from the dietary intake of chemical contaminants: a case study of the consumption of edible marine species in Catalonia, NE Spain [PDF]
Actualment, està ben establert que la ingesta dietètica és la principal via d'exposició humana a metalls i compostos orgànics persistents (COP). L'any 2000, el nostre laboratori va començar una exhaustiva investigació sobre l'exposició dietètica a ...
