The presence of dyes in wastewater effluent of textile industry is well documented. In contrast, the endocrine disrupting effects of these dyes and wastewater effluent have been poorly investigated. Herein, we studied twenty-three commercial dyes, usually used in the textile industry, and extracts of blue jean textile wastewater samples were evaluated for their agonistic and antagonistic estrog...

Allergic contact dermatitis to textile dyes is considered to be a rare phenomenon. A recent review reported a prevalence of contact allergy to disperse dyes between 0.4 and 6.7%. The relevance of positive patch testing was not reported in all studies. Textile dye allergy is easily overlooked and is furthermore challenging to investigate as textile dyes are not labelled on clothing. In this repo...

textile effluents contain different kinds of chemical dyes and many mutagenic and carcinogenic substances. discharge of these effluents into terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems causes harmful effects. in this research, decolorization of a textile effluent by nineteen different strains of fungi was investigated. removal activity of dyes was in order of   aspergillus > rhizopus > fuzarium > penici...

INTRODUCTION: Textile industry (and especially its part focused on the dyeing process) belongs among important sources of contamination responsible for the continuous pollution of the environment. The production of textile industry, as well as the volume of waste water containing processed textile dyes, steadily increases. The release of dyes into the environment constitutes only a small propor...

water plays a vital and essential role in our ecosystem. this natural resource is becoming scarce, making its availability a major social and economic concern. use of a large variety of synthetic dyes in textile industries has raised an hazardous environmental alert. about 17 - 20% of freshwater pollution is caused by textile effluents. these effluents are recalcitrant to biodegradation and cau...

Water resources are increasingly getting contaminated day by day due to the ignorance lent to the wastewater management.Most of the textile dyes or effluents are a major reason for the pollution of water resources.Although many methods are adopted to treat these textile effluents,but there is a dire need to come up with an eco-friendly,cost effective method for the removal of contaminants from ...

A method for the unsupervised clustering of optically thick textile dyes based on their spectral properties is demonstrated in this paper. The system utilizes optical fibre sensor techniques in the Ultraviolet-Visible-Near Infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) to evaluate the absorption spectrum and thus the colour of textile dyes. A multivariate method is first applied to calculate the optimum dilution factor...

Sanganer town, district Jaipur (Rajasthan, India) is famous worldwide for its hand block dyeing and textile printing industries. These industries use a variety of chemicals and dyes during processing and finishing of raw materials. Most of the textile dyes used by these industries have not been evaluated for their impact on health and the environment. The workers in these industries are exposed...

17 The presence of dyes in wastewater effluent of textile industry is well documented. In 18 contrast, the endocrine disrupting effects of these dyes and wastewater effluent have been 19 poorly investigated. Herein, we studied twenty-three commercial dyes, usually used in the 20 textile industry, and extracts of blue jean textile wastewater samples were evaluated for their 21 agonistic and anta...

The paper presents our new results about efficiency of wastes based on hydrolyzed polyacrylonitrile textile fibers (HPAN) as sorbents in removal of some dyes from textile effluents. The effect of some experimental variables such as initial dye concentration, sorbent mass, pH, temperature, and contact time were investigated. The sorbent dye sorption systems are described using Freundlich, Langmu...
