The present study aimed to analyze the concentration of aromatic hydrocarbon transfer cyclic through consumption of Binni fish (Mesopotamichthys sharpeyi) at Huralazim wetland and estimates the risk of consumption at 7 stations of Huralazim wetland in spring 2018 (one season). A statistic populations included sediment (n=21), water (n=21) and fish (n=21). The concentration of aromatic hydrocarb...

Natural and synthetic hydrocarbon mixtures are complex samples containing hundreds of different aliphatic and aromatic components in widely differing concentrations. The number of components depends on a group-type composition and the range and distribution of boiling points of the components present in the mixture . Hydrocarbon mixtures are characterised in two ways, by structural group analys...

Aromatic hydrocarbons are rated amongst the most important classes of compounds with regard to the formation of photo-oxidants in the lower atmosphere. A recent theoretical study [1] using a trajectory model approach estimated the aromatic hydrocarbons to be responsible for about 40 % of the anthropogenic ozone formation in north-western Europe, their contribution to the total nonmethane hydroc...

Accurately measuring the bioavailability of organic contaminants associated with complex environmental matrices is necessary for assessing contaminant risk, as well as for evaluating the effectiveness of proposed and in-place remediation strategies. Due to its importance, the bioavailability of organic contaminants associated with soils and sediments has been widely examined at the macroscopic ...

Work has been accomplished to develop laboratory instrumentation to conduct kinetic and mechanistic measurements of the aromatic hydrocarbon reactions initiated by OH, using chemical ionization (CIMS) and proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTRMS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Experiments have been carried to detect intermediate radicals for the OH-aromatic hydrocarbon reactions...

New materials capable of separating mixtures of saturated, unsaturated, and aromatic hydrocarbons can enable more efficient industrial processes and cleaner energy. Outstanding challenges in hydrocarbon separations stem from the similar structures, properties, and reactivities of the molecules comprising many of these mixtures. With high surface areas, tunable pore geometries, and adjustable su...

Continuous studies on the use of a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon as the central block of an organic photosensitizer have brought forth a new opportunity toward efficiency enhancement of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). In this paper, a nonacyclic aromatic hydrocarbon 9,19-dihydrodinaphtho[3,2,1-de:3',2',1'-op]pentacene, tethered with four 4-hexylphenyl solubilizing groups is reported. The n...

A 56 year old aromatherapist presented with advanced renal failure following chronic coal tar creosote vapour inhalation, and a chronic tubulo-interstitial nephritis was identified on renal biopsy. Following dialysis dependence occult inhalation continued, resulting in seizures, ataxia, cognitive impairment and marked generalised cerebral atrophy. We describe for the first time a case of creoso...

Homologs of the glutathione S-transferase (GST)-encoding gene were identified in a collection of aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading Sphingomonas spp. isolated from New Zealand, Antarctica, and the United States by using PCR primers designed from the GST-encoding gene of Sphingomonas paucimobilis EPA505. Sequence analysis of PCR fragments generated from these isolates and of the GST gene amplified f...
