Environmental pollutants with hormonal activity including bisphenol, diallyl phtalate and tetrabromodiphenyl ether, have the potential to alter gonadal development and reproduction in aquatic wildlife. Little is known about the biological impact of environmentally relevant concentrations in mussels. To investigate some

The effect of cross-linked density on the rheological behavior of model pH-responsive microgel systems consisting of methacrylic acid-ethyl acrylate (MAA-EA) cross-linked with di-allyl phthalate (DAP) was examined. Neutralization of acid groups increases the osmotic pressure exerted by counter-ions trapped in
Analysis of micronuclei, nuclear buds, bi-polynucleated and fragmented-apoptotic cells was performed in gills of blue mussels exposed for 3 weeks to sublethal concentrations of bisphenol A, diallyl phthalate (for the both nominal concentration 50 ppb) and to tetrabromodiphenyl ether-47 (nominal
The contamination of marine ecosystems by endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) is of great concern. Protein expression profile maybe a good method to help us understand the molecular mechanisms of EDCs-toxicity to aquatic organisms. In this study, the abalone (Haliotis diversicolor

In this article the suitability of FT Raman spectroscopy for monitoring kinetics of ring-closing metathesis promoted by the Grubbs' 1st generation precatalyst was demonstrated for the first time. Reactions at room temperature and under low catalyst loadings were carried out
