In the present study, four explosives of NH(4)NO(3), mineral explosives (ME), picric acid (PA) and 2,6-dinitrotoluene (2,6-DNT) have been investigated by using ZnO-doped nanoparticle sensors with additives of Sb(2)O(3), TiO(2), V(2)O(5) and WO(3). Firstly, eighteen ZnO-doped nanoparticle sensors were optimized

Munitions constituents (MCs) including hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), and TNT derivatives are recognized to elicit aberrant neuromuscular responses in many species. The onset of seizures resulting in death was observed in the avian model Northern bobwhite after oral dosing with

Large-scale aerobic windrow composting has been used to bioremediate washout lagoon soils contaminated with the explosives TNT (2,4,6-trinitrotoluene) and RDX (hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine) at several sites within the United States. We previously used 15N NMR to investigate the reduction and binding of
