The existence of a lot of worldwide pentachlorophenol-contaminated sites has induced scientists to concentrate their effort in finding ways to degrade it. Therefore, an effective tool to decompose it from soil mixtures is needed. In this work the efficiency of
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is a substance whose widespread use, mainly in wood protection and pulp and paper mills, has led to a substantial environmental contamination. This in turn accounts for a significant exposure of the general human population, with rather high
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) has been widely used for killing snails in areas of China where schistosomiasis is epidemic. With the re-emergence of schistosomiasis, the warranted production and consumption of PCP has inevitably resulted in persistent environmental contamination by it and its

It is the first report in which a novel psychrotrophic Pseudomonas putida SKG-1 strain was evaluated for simultaneous bioremediation of pentachlorophenol and Cr(6+) under various cultural and nutritional conditions. Pentachlorophenol (PCP) dechlorination products, bacterial structure, and functional groups were characterized

In this study, an imprinted silica matrix of pentachlorophenol (PCP) co-loaded with Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles and ZnS:Mn(2+) quantum dots (QDs) was fabricated. The introduction of Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles to the imprinted matrix provided an easy way to separate PCP under an external
