Nanofiltration of synthetic and industrial dye baths: Influence of temperature on rejection and membrane fouling
Nanofiltration (NF) has become a widely accepted process not only for producing drinking water but also for recovering wastewater in industrial processes or removing pollutants from industrial wastewater effluent. In the textile industry, the treatment of various dye baths with NF at room temperature have already been studied and was found feasible at lab-scale and pilot scale. The aim of this ...
متن کاملEndocrine disrupters as obesogens.

The root cause of obesity is thought to be a prolonged positive energy balance. Hence, the major focus of preventative programs for obesity has been to target overeating and inadequate physical exercise. Recent research implicates env...
متن کاملEndocrine disrupters as disrupters of brain function: a neurosteroid viewpoint.
The mechanisms of neurosteroid synthesis in the rat hippocampus were investigated. Metabolism assay demonstrated the pathway of "cholesterol alpha pregnenolone --> dehydroepiandrosterone --> androstenedione --> testosterone --> estradiol." Upon exposure of pups to bisphenol A (BPA) from the embryonic stage until 3 week-old stage, a significant facilitation of the synthesis of estradiol was obse...
متن کاملEndocrine Disrupters and Flavonoid Signalling
Like other stifftail ducks, lake ducks are promiscuous and boisterous in their sexual activity. One explanation for the evolution of such a long penis might be selection for its competitive advantage — for instance, groups of drakes might display their everted penises to attract females. Success in sperm competition may also be a factor. The base of the lake-duck penis is covered with spines, y...
متن کاملEndocrine Disrupters and Food Safety
The general population is constantly exposed to a mixture of endocrine disrupters (ED), mainly through the food chain.The dietary exposure pathways are diverse, since ED can: i) affect diet components most liable to environmental pollution (e.g., polychlorinated and polybrominated chemicals in lipid-rich foods); ii) be employed in food production (e.g., certain groups of agrochemicals); iii) be...
