Biodegradation of Polychlorinated Biphenyls by and Isolated from Contaminated Soil
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) cause many significant ecological problems because of their low degradability, high harmfulness, and solid bioaccumulation.Two bacterial strains were isolated from soil that had been polluted with electrical transformer liquid for more than 40 years. The isolates were distinguished as Lysinibacillus macrolides DSM54Tand Bacillus firmus NBRC1530...
متن کاملAccumulation of Polychlorinated Biphenyls in Ecosystems
Chlorinated biphenyl compounds have become ubiquitous components of the global environment. They were first detected in species of Swedish wildlife (1, 2, 3) and were subsequently found in seals from the North Atlantic (4), in a bird of prey in Great Britain (5), in fish and birds from the Netherlands (6), and in both terrestrial and marine species of wildlife in western North America (7). In t...
متن کاملFood Exposures to Polychlorinated Biphenyls
The PCB family of industrial chemicals has been used in a number of useful and beneficial ways for more than 40 years. PCBs have been used in capacitors, as transformer fluids, as heat transfer agents, in plasticizers and adhesives, and in sealants and printing inks. Needless to say, they have no place in the nation's food supply. The scientific community has been aware of the potential hazard ...
متن کاملAccumulation of polychlorinated biphenyls from floodplain soils by passerine birds.
Eggs, nestlings, and adults of the eastern bluebird (Sialia sialis) and house wren (Troglodytes aedon) were collected at a polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-contaminated site and a reference location on the Kalamazoo River (MI, USA). Eggs and nestlings of eastern bluebirds at the more contaminated location contained concentrations of 8.3 and 1.3 mg/kg, respectively, of total PCBs and 77 and 6.3 ng...
متن کاملAccumulation of organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls in sediments, aquatic organisms, birds, bird eggs and bat collected from south India.
Concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), DDT and its metabolites (DDTs), HCH isomers (HCHs), chlordane compounds (CHLs) and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) were determined in sediment, soil, whole body homogenates of resident and migratory birds and their prey items (including fish, green mussel, snail, earthworm, crabs, prawn, lizard and frogs), bird eggs and bats collected from southern In...
