Abstract:

Persistent and bioaccumulative toxic substances (PBTSs) that end up in fish are health hazards and the object of fish-consumption advisories. Some of these substances are present as extraneous contaminants, e.g., man-made lipophilic pollutants such as organohalogen pollutants, and others such as monomethyl mercury can be considered naturally occurring. Omnivores (e.g., poultry and swine) and especially ruminants that are fed contaminated fish meal can pass monomethyl mercury and organohalogen pollutants to eggs, meat, and dairy products. Differences in fish meal PBTS profiles and farm animal (

Abstract:

Persistent organohalogen pollutants—including halogenated nitrophenols (HNCs), trichloroethylene (TCE), and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)—pose serious environmental and health risks due to their stability, toxicity, and bioaccumulation potential. This review critically assesses current remediation technologies including advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), adsorption, membrane filtration, and thermal treatments. While these methods can be effective, they are often limited by high costs, energy demands, toxic byproduct formation, and sustainability concerns. Emerging biological app

Abstract:

Sediment samples from the North Sea and the Skagerrak were analyzed for organochlorine pollutants. Standardisation for organic carbon content of sediments proved to be a suitable tool for comparison of pollution of different sea regions. Relatively high contaminant concentrations were found in coastal regions of the southern North Sea, while standardised organochlorine concentrations in the Skagerrak were almost at baseline level. In addition to the major inputs via rivers and the atmosphere, ocean incineration of hazardous wastes was identified as a probable source of organohalogen pollution.

The occurrence of organohalogen compounds in venous serum from post-partum mothers from two Argentinian cities, Salta and Ushuaia, has been investigated (n = 698). 4,4'-DDE was the most abundant compound in these cities, with geometric means of 33 and 67ng/g lipid weight, respectively. City of residence, age and parity were the main determinants of the accumulation of these compounds. Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) was the second most abundant pollutant in Ushuaia, 8.7ng/g lipid, and β-hexachlorocyclohexane (β-HCH) in Salta, 7.8ng/g lipid.

Abstract:

Organohalogen compounds are widely used industrially and agriculturally, as well as in households as flame retardants and refrigerants. However, these compounds can become significant pollutants through their accidental or deliberate release into the environment in large quantities. Dehalogenase is an enzyme with the potential to be used in the removal of organohalogen contaminants. A previous study successfully subcloned a 690 bp of haloacid dehalogenase gene (hakp1) from Klebsiella pneumoniae ITB1 into a pET-30a(+) expression system to achieve high enzyme productivity.

Effectiveness and applicability of chlorine-containing disinfectants used in the practice of water treatment were studied for the purpose of solving urgent environmental problems associated with the formation of secondary pollutants generated during the chlorination of natural water.

To solve this problem, it is proposed to use technical grade sodium hypochlorite instead of traditional liquid chlorine when s

BACKGROUND: One of the most worrying consequence of the production and use of persistent organohalogen pollutants (POPs) is the high accumulation in Arctic populations because of long-range transport. Study of the effects in these populations may illustrate human impacts that are difficult to assess in other locations with lower exposure to these compounds and more diverse pollutant influences.

Here we demonstrate that acidic salt lake sediments in Western Australia contribute to the global natural emission of these compounds and that the emissions are primarily of biotic origin. Elucidating major sources and sinks of VOX is a key task in environmental chemistry because their formation and degradation have major effects on atmospheric chemistry and thus earth climate.

Organohalogens have been discovered since the 1930s and have been used for many applications ever since.

Exposure to these persistent organic pollutants (POPs) not only results in detrimental effects on human health, such as various cancers, nervous system damage, and liver damage, in addition to fetal and infant growth defects, but also affects fauna, s

Abstract:

The notion of ‘civilization diseases’ is used to describe certain ailments whose aetiology is difficult to explain based on the knowledge about the functioning of the body and its metabolism. Only studies at the cellular level, on biochemical changes shed light on the causes of some diseases described as civilization diseases (cancers, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, obesity, psychomotor disorders in children and an increase in the frequency of malformations). The factors whose incontestable influence on the increase in the frequency of occurrence of various ‘civilization diseases’ ha

Abstract:

Background: Breastfed children absorb persistent and toxic chemicals such as organohalogen compounds (OHCs) during the entire lactation period. Nursing is a main contributor to the burden of these pollutants in the first years of life, hence further assessments on the OHC load processes are needed. Objectives: To identify the determinants of OHC increase in children at four years of age, considering concentration gains, maternal venous concentrations and breastfeeding time. Methods: Concentrations of 19 organochlorine compounds (OCs) and 14 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were analyzed

Abstract:

<em>Background</em>: One of the most worrying consequence of the production and use of persistent organohalogen pollutants (POPs) is the high accumulation in Arctic populations because of long-range transport. Study of the effects in these populations may illustrate human impacts that are difficult to assess in other locations with lower exposure to these compounds and more diverse pollutant influences. <em>Objective</em>: We aimed to identify the main maternal characteristics influencing on the accumulation of these compounds and the effects on the newborns in a highl

Abstract:

AbstractElectrochemical technology is a robust approach to removing toxic and persistent chlorinated organic pollutants from water; however, it remains a challenge to design electrocatalysts with high activity and selectivity as elaborately as natural reductive dehalogenases. Here we report the design of high-performance electrocatalysts toward water dechlorination by mimicking the binding pocket configuration and catalytic center of reductive dehalogenases. Specifically, our designed electrocatalyst is an assembled heterostructure by sandwiching a molecular catalyst into the interlayers of tw

Abstract:

Haloaromatic is one of organohalogen pollutants found in the environment. These compounds are toxic, persistent, carcinogenic, and mutagenic. Accumulations of these compounds in the environment may cause serious diseases in organisms, including humans. Previous research results showed that breaking the bond of halogen atom from the aromatic ring could eliminate the toxicity of these compounds. Haloaromatic dehalogenase is an enzyme that possesses an ability to cut the halogen atom from the aromatic ring. In this research, a rhd α-subunit gene of haloaromatic dehalogenase terminal oxygenase has

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are a class of flame-retardant organohalogen pollutants that act as endocrine/neuroendocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). In humans, exposure to brominated flame retardants (BFR) or other environmentally persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and novel organophosphate flame retardants has been associated with increasing trends of diabetes and metabolic disease. However, the effects of PBDEs on metabolic processes and their associated sex-dependent features are poorly understood. The metabolic-disrupting effects of pe

Abstract:

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers are a group of flame‐retardant organohalogen pollutants that act as endocrine and neuroendocrine disrupting chemicals. In humans, exposure to brominated flame retardants or other environmentally persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has been associated with increasing trends of diabetes and metabolic disease (Gray et al. 2013; Baker et al. 2013; Lim et al, 2008; Lee et al, 2006).
