N-butyl benzenesulfonamide (NBBS), one of the sulfonamide plasticizers, induced characteristic effects to Wistar rats after acute repeated exposures (300 mg/kg body weight, ip every 6 h). The signs were pica, staggering gait with hindlimb-paresis and splaying, teeth-grinding, self paw-biting and

An antifungal bacterial strain, isolated from a greenhouse soil sample, inhibits growth of microflora nearby. It was selected for further studies of bacterial antifungal properties. This isolate was identified as a Pseudomonas sp. based on carbohydrate utilization, and other biochemical

The plasticizer, n-butylbenzenesulfonamide (NBBS), is reported to be neurotoxic when inoculated intracisternally or intraperitoneally into rabbits. Because NBBS is commonly used in the production of polyamide (nylon) plastics and is soluble in water, the disposal of NBBS-containing plastics in landfill
