Analysis of Oxidative Stress in Chronic Exposure to Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Karnataka, India
Background:Several studies have reported the toxicological implications of inhalation of petroleum hydrocarbon fumes in animal models. But, there is certainly little or no documentation of the exposure to petroleum hydrocarbon fuel on oxidative stress levels in humans, unlike the pulmonary physiology. The present study was carried out to evaluate the effects of constituents of the hydrocarbon f...
متن کاملBiodegradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Petroleum Contaminated Soils
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are a class of potentially hazardous chemicals of environmental and health concern. PAHs are one of the most prevalent groups of contaminants found in soil. Biodegradation of complex hydrocarbon usually requires the cooperation of more than single specie. In this research biotreatment of PAH (phenanthrene) was studied in a solid-phase reactor using indigenou...
متن کاملBiodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in hypersaline environments
Literature on hydrocarbon degradation in extreme hypersaline media presents studies that point to a negative effect of salinity increase on hydrocarbonoclastic activity, while several others report an opposite tendency. Based on information available in the literature, we present a discussion on the reasons that justify these contrary results. Despite the fact that microbial ability to metaboli...
متن کاملCharacterization of C6 to C35 Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Environmental Samples:
1.1 This gas chromatographic method is designed to determine the concentrations in soil and water of petroleum hydrocarbons from nhexane (C6) to n-pentatriacontane (C 35); an approximate boiling point range from 70C to 500C. This includes the gasoline, diesel range, and some portions of heavier fuels and lubricating oils. This method also describes the separation of the petroleum hydrocarbons i...
متن کاملMethods to assess the amenability of petroleum hydrocarbons to bioremediation.
Bioremediation has achieved acceptance as a cost-effective technique for the remediation of soils and groundwater contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons (PHC). A range of laboratory techniques to assess the biodegradability and bioavailability of PHCs are presented. Biodegradability and bioavailability are important determinants of the bioremediation performance of PHCs. Novel methods for the...
