Identification of Dehalobacter reductive dehalogenases that catalyse dechlorination of chloroform, 1,1,1-trichloroethane and 1,1-dichloroethane.
Philos. Trans. R. Soc. Lond., B, Biol. Sci. 368(1616) , 20120318, (2013) Two novel reductive dehalogenases (RDases) that are highly similar to each other but catalyse distinct dechlorination reactions were identified from Dehalobacter-containing mixed cultures. These two RDases were partially purified from crude protein extracts o... |

A novel toxicogenomics-based approach to categorize (non-)genotoxic carcinogens.
Arch. Toxicol. 89 , 2413-27, (2015) Alternative methods to detect non-genotoxic carcinogens are urgently needed, as this class of carcinogens goes undetected in the current testing strategy for carcinogenicity under REACH. A complicating factor is that non-genotoxic carcinogens act through seve... |

The impact of chlorinated solvent co-contaminants on the biodegradation kinetics of 1,4-dioxane.
Chemosphere 91(1) , 88-92, (2013) 1,4-Dioxane (dioxane), a probable human carcinogen, is used as a solvent stabilizer for 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA) and other chlorinated solvents. Consequently, TCA and its abiotic breakdown product 1,1-dichloroethene (DCE) are common co-contaminants of diox... |

Co-occurrence of 1,4-dioxane with trichloroethylene in chlorinated solvent groundwater plumes at US Air Force installations: Fact or fiction.
Integr. Environ. Assess. Manag. 8(4) , 731-7, (2012) Increasing regulatory attention to 1,4-dioxane has prompted the United States Air Force (USAF) to evaluate potential environmental liabilities, primarily associated with legacy contamination, at an enterprise scale. Although accurately quantifying environment... |

Removal of 1,1,1-trichloroethane from aqueous solution by a sono-activated persulfate process.
Ultrason. Sonochem. 20(3) , 855-63, (2013) 1,1,1-Trichloroethane (TCA), labeled as a priority pollutant by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of China, can be removed from groundwater by sonochemical oxidation. The sonochemical oxidation of TCA in the presence of persulfate (PS) showed a signif... |

Simultaneous counter-flow of chlorinated volatile organic compounds across the saturated-unsaturated interface region of an aquifer.
Water Res. 44(7) , 2107-12, (2010) Concentrations of chlorinated volatile organic compounds (Cl-VOCs) at the saturated-unsaturated interface region (SUIR; depth of approximately 18m) of a sandy phreatic aquifer were measured in two monitoring wells located 25m apart. The concentrations of the ... |

Quantifying the effects of 1,1,1-trichloroethane and 1,1-dichloroethane on chlorinated ethene reductive dehalogenases.
Environ. Sci. Technol. 45(22) , 9693-702, (2011) Mixtures of chlorinated ethenes and ethanes are often found at contaminated sites. In this study, we undertook a systematic investigation of the inhibitory effects of 1,1,1-trichloroethane (1,1,1-TCA) and 1,1-dichloroethane (1,1-DCA) on chlorinated ethene dec... |

1,1,1-trichloroethane and 1,1-dichloroethane reductive dechlorination kinetics and co-contaminant effects in a Dehalobacter-containing mixed culture.
Environ. Sci. Technol. 43(17) , 6799-807, (2009) 1,1,1-Trichloroethane (1,1,1-TCA) is a common groundwater contaminant that can be reductively dechlorinated to 1,1-dichloroethane (1,1-DCA) and monochloroethane, and can support the growth of certain dehalorespiring strains of Dehalobacter We used reductive d... |

Sex differences in urinary levels of several biological indicators of exposure: a human volunteer study.
Toxicol. Lett. 202(3) , 218-25, (2011) The aim of the study was to quantify the variability on biological indicators of exposure between men and women for three well known solvents: methyl ethyl ketone, 1-methoxy-2-propanol and 1,1,1-trichloroethane. Another purpose was to explore the effect of se... |
