Although hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD) was recently proposed as a candidate persistent organic pollutant (POP) under the Stockholm Convention, information about its environmental levels and distributions is still very limited. In this work, HCBD was determined in the sewage sludge from 37

The bacterium, Burkholderia (previously Pseudomonas) sp. strain PS12, reported earlier to degrade 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene is shown here to utilize also 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene (Cl4-benzene) as a growth substrate. To investigate the possibility that this organism attacks Cl4-benzene with a chlorobenzene dioxygenase which concomitantly

1,2,4,5-Tetrachlorobenzene (TCB) is an industrial intermediate used in the production of 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid. This herbicide contains trace quantities of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Because of possible maternal hepatic or reproductive effects of this uncharged, low-molecular weight, lipophilic chlorinated benzene 0, 30, 100

Of the twelve different chlorobenzene isomers, a thorough evaluation of carcinogenicity has only been assessed on monochlorobenzene, 1,2-, and 1,4-dichlorobenzene, and hexachlorobenzene. In the studies presented here, we measured the ability of 1,4-dichlorobenzene (DCB), 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene (TeCB), pentachlorobenzene (PeCB), and hexachlorobenzene

1,2,4,5-Tetrachlorobenzene (TeCB) and 1,4-dichlorobenzene (DCB) are important environmental contaminants that have been used extensively for a variety of industrial applications. Limited data are available in the literature regarding the carcinogenicity of TeCB. DCB has been shown to cause renal adenocarcinomas
