Sensitized photodechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyl, PCB 138, in three different surfactant solutions was studied. The sensitizer of choice was leuco-methylene blue, which was produced in situ from methylene blue using either triethylamine or sodium borohydride. Three types of surfactants, anionic

Developmental exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has been associated with cognitive deficits in humans and laboratory animals by mechanisms that remain unknown. Recently, it has been shown that developmental exposure to 2,2',3,4,4',5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB138), a food-relevant PCB congener, decreases the learning

The effects of two substituted polychlorinated biphenyls, the 3,4,5,3',4,5' (PCB-169) and the 2,3,4,2',4',5' (PCB-138) forms, were examined on the expression of c-myc, c-jun, c-ras, and jun-b in 3T3-L1 cells. Northern blot analysis demonstrated that the two PCBs, which exhibit a

Four etching solutions used on support materials and two coating methods of TiO(2) were conducted to investigate the effects of catalytical preparing methods on the photocatalysis of 2,2',3,4,4',5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB congener 138). The results of XRD analyses confirmed that various etching
Journal of hazardous materials, 181(1-3), 393-398 (2010-06-15)
A study of dechlorination of PCB 138, under visible light employing methylene blue (MB) and triethylamine (TEA) in acetonitrile/water has been conducted to investigate the details of the mechanism of dechlorination and to determine the efficiency of the process for
