Phenol derivatives constitute a family of neuroactive compounds. The aim of our study was to identify structural features that determine their modulatory effects at glycine receptors. We investigated the effects of four methylated phenol derivatives and two halogenated analogues on

In the present work, a simple, selective, and sensitive method has been proposed for the determination of four phenols (catechol, resorcinol, 2,6-dimethylphenol, and 2,4,6-trinitrophenol) in water samples. The method is based on poly-(methacrylic acid-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) monolith microextraction (PMME) and

Alkylphenols and fuel oxygenates are important environmental pollutants produced by the petrochemical industry. A batch biodegradability test was conducted with selected ortho-substituted alkylphenols (2-cresol, 2,6-dimethylphenol and 2-ethylphenol), fuel oxygenates (methyl tert-butyl ether, ethyl tert-butyl ether and tert-amylmethyl ether) and tert-butyl

A new metabolite, 2,6-dimethylphenol obtained by O-dealkylation of mexiletine by rabbit liver was identified. A g.c.-f.i.d. method was developed for its analysis in hepatic homogenates and some of the characteristics of the metabolic reaction were studied. Formation of 2,6-dimethylphenol is

Dust-borne phenols and indols were extracted by ethanol from the sedimentation dust of two pig houses (finishing pigs on half slatted floor resp. piglets on deep litter) and a hen house (3-stage battery cages) and analysed by gas chromatography. In
