Organochlorinated pesticides (OCPs) and Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the surface sediments from shrimp ponds four regions of northern part Central Java coast (namely Brebes, Tegal, Pemalang, Pekalongan) were investigated. The highest concentration ? OCPs was found Brebes Regency, ranging 68.1 ± 3.4 to 168.1 9.8 ?g kg?1 dw. As indicated by DDT ratio chlordane ratio, value suggested that t...

Aim of study: One the safest techniques regarding remediation contaminated water is biological remediation. This study aimed to: (i) monitoring a collection organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in three agricultural drainages (Nashart, no. 9, and El-shoka), located Kafr El-Sheikh governorate, Egypt; ii) investigate biodegradation potential different bacterial isolates pesticides.Material methods: A...

Records from a popular series at The National Archives were found to bear warning labels that they have been bound using ‘poisonous insecticidal solution’. Research into historic sources suggested the agents used by bookbinders in early twentieth century mercuric chloride, copper sulphate, and beechwood creosote; these may replaced organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) such as dichlorodiphenyltrichl...

This study aims to explore persistent microorganic pollutants (Poly chloro byphneyls (PCBs) and Organochlorine Pesticides (OCPs)) in sediment mud clams (Polymesoda erosa) Segara Anakan Lagoon (SAL). In addition, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) the were evaluated their risk consumption Bioaccumulation factor sediment. Concentrations of seven PCBs found range 0.11 ± 0.05 2.63 0.1 μg kg−1 ...

Persistent organic pollutants, (POPs), are vast distributed compounds in environment which are recognized as one of the global pollution problems. These groups of materials being dangerous due to their high stability are accumulated in animal tissues and occurring in the food chain. One of the major paths through which persistent organic combinations access to human body is consuming polluted f...
