Sixteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were screened for their ability to be directly cytotoxic to a cell line from the rainbow trout gill, RTgill-W1. Exposure times of 2 h or less were sufficient for direct cytotoxicity to be detected, which

Nowadays, centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) separations can be routinely achieved at the laboratory scale. The solvent system selection has been made easy, as generic sets of solvent systems are described in publications and books. This approach, however, generally reduces the

Removal of acenaphthylene from water has been carried out by means of different treatments combining UV radiation, ozone and hydrogen peroxide. Ozonation alone or in conjunction with hydrogen peroxide (10(-3) M) resulted in the highest elimination rates. Thus, conversions as

Acenaphthene and acenaphthylene are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) emitted into the atmosphere from a variety of incomplete combustion sources such as diesel exhaust. Both PAHs are present in the gas phase under typical atmospheric conditions and therefore can undergo atmospheric

The acenaphthylene-degrading bacterium Rhizobium sp. strain CU-A1 was isolated from petroleum-contaminated soil in Thailand. This strain was able to degrade 600 mg/liter acenaphthylene completely within three days. To elucidate the pathway for degradation of acenaphthylene, strain CU-A1 was mutagenized by
