Nitrosative stress and nitrated proteins in trichloroethene-mediated autoimmunity. [PDF]
Exposure to trichloroethene (TCE), a ubiquitous environmental contaminant, has been linked to a variety of autoimmune diseases (ADs) including SLE, scleroderma and hepatitis. Mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of ADs are largely unknown.

Detection of Organohalide-Respiring Enzyme Biomarkers at a Bioaugmented TCE-Contaminated Field Site
RNA-based biomarkers have been successfully detected at field sites undergoing in situ bioremediation, but the detection of expressed enzymes is a more direct way to prove activity for a particular biocatalytic process of interest since they provide ...

Chlorinated compounds were generally present in the environment due to widespread use in the industry. A short-term study was performed to evaluate the effects of 1,1,1- trichloroethane (TCA) and triclocarban (TCC) on trichloroethene (TCE) removal in a ...

Remediation of Hexachloro-1,3-Butadiene Contaminated Groundwater. [PDF]
Hexachloro-1,3-butadiene (HCBD) is an industrial by-product that is produced during the manufacturing of various chlorinated hydrocarbons like vinyl chloride, trichloroethene or tetrachloroethene.

Complete dechlorination of trichloroethene (TCE) by Dehalococcoides mccartyi is catalyzed by reductive dehalogenases (RDases), which possess cobalamin as the crucial cofactor. However, virtually all D. mccartyi isolated thus far are corrinoid auxotrophs.

Dehalococcoides is able to completely dehalogenate tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE) to ethene (ETH). However, the dechlorination efficiency of Dehalococcoides is low and result in the accumulation of toxic intermediates.
