The dehalogenation in vivo of brominated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as methyl bromide (1) and bromochloromethane (2) has been demonstrated by recovery of inorganic bromide from blood and urine. The intracellular formation of bromide and methyl alcohol from methyl bromide has been advanced as an explanation for its prolonged toxic effect (3). Evidence for the splitting of chlorinated aliphatic ...

ports’ activities could result in oil spills occurrences and oil pollution in different ways including the discharges of ships’ oily wastes, discharges of oily ballast water and leaks at oil terminals. in this paper, using the results of the analyses of the hydrocarbon compounds in the samples collected from the sediments in the anzali port in the caspian sea in iran, the levels of oil pollutio...

The goal of this study was to monitor emission of chemicals at a factory where plastics products were fabricated by a new robotic (impregnated tape winding) production process. Stationary and personal air measurements were taken to determine which chemicals were released and at what concentrations. Principal component analyses (PCA) and linear regression were used to determine the emission sour...

Herein we reveal a straightforward supramolecular design for the H-bonding driven J-aggregation of an amine-substituted cNDI in aliphatic hydrocarbons. Transient absorption spectroscopy reveals sub-ps intramolecular electron transfer in isolated NDI molecules in a THF solution followed by a fast recombination process, while a remarkable extension of the excited state lifetime by more than one o...

Ten halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons (carbon tetrachloride, 1-chlorohexane, 2,3-dichlorobutane, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,2-dichloroethylene, 1,3-dichloropropane, hexachloroethane, 1,1,2-trichloroethane, 1,2,3-trichloropropane and 1,1,3-trichloropropene), previously assayed in genetic assays in fungi, were evaluated in the mouse bone marrow micronucleus test in order to assess their genotoxicity ...

the present study is to study linear free energy relationships (lfers) for dechlorination ratesin cement/fe(ii) slurries of eight chlorinated hydrocarbons including carbon tetrachloride, chloroform produced from carbon tetrachloride, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloroethylene produced from 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane, tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethylene, 1,1-dichloroethylene, and vinyl chloride,...
