Volatile Short-chain Chlorinated Hydrocarbons in the Groundwater of the City of Zagreb [PDF]
The aim of the study was to assess the quality of the groundwater sampled from private wells and the public water-supply system in terms of estimating the contamination caused by short-chain chlorinated hydrocarbons, as well as to estimate the exposure ...

Phylogenetic and Functional Diversity of Soluble Di‐Iron Monooxygenases
Relationships between monooxygenase substrates and products with respect to host cell physiology and biotechnology applications. ABSTRACT Monooxygenase (MO) enzymes are responsible for the oxidation of hydrocarbons and other compounds in the carbon and nitrogen cycles, are important for the biodegradation of pollutants and can act as biocatalysts for ...

Tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE) are significant groundwater contaminants. Microbial reductive dehalogenation at contaminated sites can produce nontoxic ethene but often stops at toxic cis-1,2-dichloroethene ( cis-DCE) or vinyl chloride (

iNOS Contributes to Trichloroethene‐Mediated Autoimmunity
Reactive nitrogen species (RNS) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases (ADs). However, the potential mechanisms by which RNS contribute to the pathogenesis of ADs remain largely unexplored. Earlier studies from our laboratory in MRL+/+ mice suggested a role of RNS in trichloroethene (TCE)‐mediated ...

Improved determination of VOCs in marine biota by using on-line purge and trap-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry [PDF]
A Tekmar LSC-2000 Purge and Trap (P&T) apparatus was further modified in order to improve the on-line P&T gas chromatographic etermination of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in biological tissue.
