Toluene and o-xylene were completely mineralized to stoichiometric amounts of carbon dioxide, methane, and biomass by aquifer-derived microorganisms under strictly anaerobic conditions. The source of the inoculum was creosote-contaminated sediment from Pensacola, Fla. The adaptation periods before the onset of degradation were long (100 to 120 days for toluene degradation and 200 to 255 days fo...
A bacterial biosensor for benzene, toluene, and similar compounds has been constructed, characterized, and field tested on contaminated water and soil. The biosensor is based on a plasmid incorporating the transcriptional activator xylR from the TOL plasmid of Pseudomonas putida mt-2. The XylR protein binds a subset of toluene-like compounds and activates transcription at its promoter, Pu. A re...
A 21-year-old woman developed severe muscle paralysis after sniffing toluene-containing thinner solution for 2 weeks. Her serum chemistries revealed severe hypokalaemia and a normal anion gap hyperchloraemic metabolic acidosis secondary to renal tubular acidosis. Her initial presentation mimicked hypokalaemic periodic paralysis, but toxicology screening of her blood and urine revealed the corre...
The present study examined the gas-phase photocatalytic degradation of toluene using ZnO-SnO2 nanocomposite supported on activated carbon in a photocatalytic reactor. Toluene was selected as a model pollutant from volatile organic compounds to determine the pathway of photocatalytic degradation and the factors influencing this degradation. The ZnO-SnO2 nanocomposite was synthesized through co-p...
We have used novel microporous biphenylene-pillared layered silicates as receptors in a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) for sensing toluene vapors. The silicate was successfully coated on a QCM electrode modified with 2-aminoethanethiol. The resultant electrode showed quantitative frequency responses due to enhanced adhesion between the silicate and the electrode. The silicate-coated electrod...
Saturation mutagenesis was used to generate eleven substitutions of toluene-o-xylene monooxygenase (ToMO) at alpha subunit (TouA) positions F176 and F196 among which nine were novel: F176H, F176N, F176S, F176T, F196A, F196L, F196T, F196Y, F196H, F196I, and F196V. By testing the substrates phenol, toluene, and naphthalene, these positions were found to influence ToMO oxidation activity and regio...
The possibility that electrodes might serve as an electron acceptor to simulate the degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons in anaerobic contaminated sediments was investigated. Initial studies with Geobacter metallireducens demonstrated that although toluene was rapidly adsorbed onto the graphite electrodes it was rapidly oxidized to carbon dioxide with the electrode serving as the sole electron ...
Strain T1 is a facultative bacterium that is capable of anaerobic toluene degradation under denitrifying conditions. While 80% of the carbon from toluene is either oxidized to carbon dioxide or assimilated into cellular carbon, a significant portion of the remainder is transformed into two dead-end metabolites. These metabolites were produced simultaneous to the mineralization of toluene and we...
Two pairs of calamitic liquid crystalline molecules, (+)-2-[4'-(S)-sec-butoxyphenyl]-5-(4'-hexoxyphenyl)toluene ((+)-S-1) and (+)-2-(4'-hexoxyphenyl)-5-[4'-(S)-sec-butoxyphenyl]toluene ((+)-S-2), (-)-2-[4'-(R)-sec-butoxyphenyl]-5-(4'-hexoxyphenyl)toluene ((-)-R-1) and (-)-2-(4'-hexoxyphenyl)-5-[4'-(R)-sec-butoxyphenyl]toluene ((-)-R-2), have been designed and synthesized. Each of the molecules ...
Toluene is a major industrial solvent and substance of abuse which is ototoxic in rats as shown by both behavioral testing and measurement of brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) thresholds. The objective of this investigation was to examine the morphological (hair cell loss) and functional (BAER threshold elevations) changes resulting from toluene administration. In the preliminary experi...
