Seasonal measurements of total OH reactivity emission rates from Norway spruce in 2011 [PDF]
Numerous reactive volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted into the atmosphere by vegetation. Most biogenic VOCs are highly reactive towards the atmosphere's most important oxidant, the hydroxyl (OH) radical.

Cellular reactions to long-term volatile organic compound (VOC) exposures [PDF]
AbstractInvestigations of cellular processes initiated by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are limited when modelling realistic long-term exposure scenarios at low concentrations. Exposure to indoor VOCs is associated with a range of adverse effects, but data on molecular changes at regulatory threshold limits are lacking.

Volatile organic compounds emitted from fungal-rotting beech (Fagus sylvatica) [PDF]
Chemo-communication is an important mode of interaction within ecosystem. The living organism in the ecosystem can deliver signals to conspecifics, to co-organisms, and unintentionally to their enemies, by emitting the volatile organic compounds (VOCs ...

On the use of an explicit chemical mechanism to dissect peroxy acetyl nitrate formation. [PDF]
Peroxy acetyl nitrate (PAN) is a key component of photochemical smog and plays an important role in atmospheric chemistry. Though it has been known that PAN is produced via reactions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) with some volatile organic compounds (VOCs ...

Construction of IsoVoc Database for the Authentication of Natural Flavours
Flavour is an important quality trait of food and beverages. As the demand for natural aromas increases and the cost of raw materials go up, so does the potential for economically motivated adulteration.

Analytical modelling of stable isotope fractionation of volatile organic compounds in the unsaturated zone [PDF]
Analytical models were developed that simulate stable isotope ratios of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) near a point source contamination in the unsaturated zone. The models describe diffusive transport of VOCs, biodegradation and source ageing.

Emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds from a Swine Shed
The concentrations and chemical compositions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including volatile fatty acids, phenols, indoles, aldehydes, and ketones, which are the main organic compounds generated by swine, were investigated in July and October ...

Conversion of chemical scrubbers to biotrickling filters for VOCs and H2S treatment at low contact times [PDF]
The purpose of this work was to evaluate the technical and economical feasibility of converting three chemical scrubbers in series to biotrickling filters (BTFs) for the simultaneous removal of H2S and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The conversion of

Endophytic Fungal Volatile Compounds as Solution for Sustainable Agriculture
Endophytic fungi produce various mixtures of carbon-based compounds, which are known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Research regarding the use of VOCs as pesticide substitutes has garnered much attention.
