Surprises perilous: Toxic health hazards for employees unloading fumigated shipping containers
Sci. Total Environ. 409(17) , 3106-13, (2011) The fumigation of freight containers to protect transported goods from fungal and pest infestation has increased worldwide in the last five years due to international regulations requiring fumigation or heat treatment of wooden packaging material and dunnage.... |

Reactive films for mitigating methyl bromide emissions from fumigated soil.
Environ. Sci. Technol. 45(6) , 2317-22, (2011) Emissions of methyl bromide (MeBr) from agricultural fumigation can lead to depletion of the stratospheric ozone layer, and so its use is being phased out. However, as MeBr is still widely used under Critical Use Exemptions, strategies are still required to c... |

A high-throughput direct fluorescence resonance energy transfer-based assay for analyzing apoptotic proteases using flow cytometry and fluorescence lifetime measurements.
Anal. Biochem. 491 , 10-7, (2015) Cytometry is a versatile and powerful method applicable to different fields, particularly pharmacology and biomedical studies. Based on the data obtained, cytometric studies are classified into high-throughput (HTP) or high-content screening (HCS) groups. How... |

Theoretical study of the kinetics of reactions of the monohalogenated methanes with atomic chlorine.
J. Mol. Model. 19(4) , 1489-505, (2013) Ab initio calculations at the G2 level were used in a theoretical description of the kinetics and mechanism of the hydrogen abstraction reactions from fluoro-, chloro- and bromomethane by chlorine atoms. The profiles of the potential energy surfaces show that... |

Effects of temperature and soil moisture on methyl halide and chloroform fluxes from drained peatland pasture soils.
J. Environ. Monit. 14(1) , 241-9, (2012) A series of laboratory-based incubations using a stable isotope tracer technique was applied to measure the net and gross fluxes of CH(3)Cl and CH(3)Br as well as the net fluxes of CHCl(3) from surface soils of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta of California. ... |

Dissociation mechanisms of excited CH3X (X = Cl, Br, and I) formed via high-energy electron transfer using alkali metal targets.
J. Chem. Phys. 137(18) , 184308, (2012) High-energy electron transfer dissociation (HE-ETD) on collisions with alkali metal targets (Cs, K, and Na) was investigated for CH(3)X(+) (X = Cl, Br, and I) ions by a charge inversion mass spectrometry. Relative peak intensities of the negative ions formed ... |

Managing root-knot nematodes and weeds with 1,3-dichloropropene as an alternative to methyl bromide in cucumber crops in China.
J. Agric. Food Chem. 59(6) , 2362-7, (2011) 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) was evaluated as a potential alternative for the widely used soil fumigant methyl bromide (MeBr) in cucumber (Cucumis sativus Linn.) crops in China. Six treatments were replicated five times in a randomized complete block design: f... |

Manganese uptake and distribution in the brain after methyl bromide-induced lesions in the olfactory epithelia.
Toxicol. Sci. 120(1) , 163-72, (2011) Manganese (Mn) is an essential nutrient with potential neurotoxic effects. Mn deposited in the nose is apparently transported to the brain through anterograde axonal transport, bypassing the blood-brain barrier. However, the role of the olfactory epithelial c... |

Subsurface drip application of alternative fumigants to methyl bromide for controlling nematodes in replanted grapevines.
Pest Manag. Sci. 68(5) , 773-80, (2012) Many California grape growers use preplant fumigation to ensure uniform and healthy grapevine establishment in replant situations. A field study was conducted to evaluate the performance of subsurface drip-applied chemical alternatives to methyl bromide on pl... |

Effects of fumigants on microbial diversity and persistence of E. coli O15:H7 in contrasting soil microcosms.
Sci. Total Environ. 409(19) , 3740-8, (2011) Persistence of E. coli O157 in the environment is a serious public health concern. However, little is known about the persistence of this pathogen after exposure to chemical compounds like fumigants in the environment. In this study, the persistence behavior ... |
