Soil response to contamination with 2,4,5-triclorophenol was studied to test the validity of the concept of Generic Reference Levels (GRL), the main criterion used to define soil contamination. Soil samples were artificially contaminated with doses between 0 and 5000 mg
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been carried out to explore the potential energy surface (PES) associated with the gas-phase reaction between 2,4,5-trichlorophenol and CuO. A gas-phase model was constructed to account, from a theoretical perspective, for the most important

Trichlorophenols (TCPs) are organochlorine compounds which are ubiquitous in the environment and well known for their carcinogenic effects. However, little is known about their neurotoxicity in humans. Our goal was to examine the association between body burden of TCPs (ie
Ecotoxicological assessment of chemicals and contaminated sites relies on bioassays using apical endpoints such as detection of growth inhibition using suspension cultures of green algae. For valid effect assessment observable responses should be causally linked to chemical exposure and thus

Adsorption of 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (TCP) and picric acid (PA) by montmorillonite preloaded with crystal violet (CV) up to 80, 100, and 125% of the cation exchange capacity was studied. The adsorption isotherms indicated a strong interaction of TCP and PA with
