Ortho-substituted polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners, which constitute a large part of PCB residues found in the environment and in animal tissues, are known to exert potent vascular effects and can activate endothelial cells in the periphery and in the brain.
A three-dimensional/high-resolution transport model for persistent organic pollutants (POPs) has been developed for the East China Sea (ECS). The POPs model has four compartments (gaseous, dissolved, phytoplankton-bound, and detritus-bound phases) and includes processes for diffusive air-water exchange, phytoplankton uptake/depuration to
An activated carbon (AC) containing a high concentration (374mgg(-1)) of Fe was prepared by carbonization of an ion-exchange resin. To examine its chemical reactivity as a catalyst to decompose 2,2',4,4',5,5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB-153), the decomposition parameters of temperature and time were varied

Environmental polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are frequently bound onto nanoparticles (NPs). However, the toxicity and health effects of PCBs assembled onto nanoparticles are unknown. The aim of this study was to study the hypothesis that binding PCBs to silica NPs potentiates
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are ubiquitous, persistent pollutants found in the environment and human tissues. Exposure to PCBs is of great concern to human health because they are known to cause neurological, reproductive, endocrinal, and other effects. The aim of the
