The white-rot fungus Trametes versicolor degraded trichloroethylene (TCE), a highly oxidized chloroethene, and produced 2,2,2-trichloroethanol and carbon dioxide as the main products of degradation, based on the results obtained using [13C]-TCE as the substrate. For a range of concentrations of
We report measurements of solubility limits for benzene, toluene, and TCE in systems that contain varying levels of biomass up to 0.13 g mL(-1) for TCE and 0.25 g mL(-1) for benzene and toluene. The solubility limit increased from 21

Cardiovascular effects have often been found in 2-chloroethanol (2-CE) intoxicated patients, but the 2-CE elicits cardiovascular toxicity mechanism is not clear. Recently, we have found that chloroacetaldehyde (CAA) accumulation in 2-CE-intoxicated rat's blood and play an important role in 2-CE

Nonfatal acute inhalation of trichloroethylene (TRI) at work was described. The subject, male, 54 years old, was drawn unconscious by a metal-degreasing machine and immediately sheltered in intensive care unit. Other than basic life support and common laboratory indices, blood
