Toxicity of trinitrotoluene to sheepshead minnows in water exposures.
Lethal effects of trinitrotoluene (TNT) to juvenile sheepshead minnows (JSHM) (Cyprinodon variegatus) were assessed in ten-day water exposures. Ten-day median lethal concentrations (LC50s) were 2.3 and 2.5 mg L(-1), the 10-d median lethal residue value (LR50) was 26.1 micromol kg(-1) wet weight (ww), and bioconcentration factors (BCFs) ranged from 0.7 to 2.4 L kg(-1). The lethal effects of TNT ...
متن کاملBiodegradation of Lignocelluloses in Sewage Sludge Composting and Vermicomposting
Aims of the Study: The aim of this study was to determine the amount of lignin degradation and biodegradation of organic matter and change of biomass under compost and vermicomposting of sewage sludge. Materials & Methods: Sawdust was added to sewage sludge at 1:3 weight bases to Carbon to Nitrogen ratio of 25:1 for composting or vermicomposting. Lignin and volatile solids were deter...
متن کاملAerobic Biodegradation Characteristic of Different Water-Soluble Azo Dyes
This study investigated the biodegradation performance and characteristics of Sudan I and Acid Orange 7 (AO7) to improve the biological dye removal efficiency in wastewater and optimize the treatment process. The dyes with different water-solubility and similar molecular structure were biologically treated under aerobic condition in parallel continuous-flow mixed stirred reactors. The biophase ...
متن کاملBiodegradation of 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene by White-Rot Fungus Irpex lacteus
White-rot fungus Irpex lacteus degraded TNT significantly in proportion to the culture time. After 48 h incubation, about 95% of TNT was degraded. Two reduced metabolites were identified as 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (4-ADNT) and 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene (2-ADNT) which was further degraded.
متن کاملBiodegradation of TNT (2,4,6-trinitrotoluene) by Phanerochaete chrysosporium.
Extensive biodegradation of TNT (2,4,6-trinitrotoluene) by the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was observed. At an initial concentration of 1.3 mg/liter, 35.4 +/- 3.6% of the [14C]TNT was degraded to 14CO2 in 18 days. The addition of glucose 12 days after the addition of TNT did not stimulate mineralization, and, after 18 days of incubation with TNT only, about 3.3% of the initial ...
