Kyunghwa Baek et al.
Bioresource technology, 123, 207-213 (2012-09-04)
This study investigated the effect of co-substrate amendments on EDB biodegradation under aerobic conditions. Microcosms were established using contaminated soil and groundwater samples and maintained under in situ conditions to determine EDB degradation rates, and the diversity and abundance of
P David Josephy et al.
Environmental and molecular mutagenesis, 47(9), 657-665 (2006-09-02)
Ethylene dibromide (EDB) is a widespread environmental pollutant and mutagen/carcinogen. Certain Theta-class glutathione transferases (GSTs), enzymes that catalyze the reaction of reduced glutathione (GSH) with electrophiles, activate EDB to a mutagen. Previous studies have shown that human GST T1-1, but

Chemical research in toxicology, 20(1), 155-163 (2007-01-18)
The production of mutations and the reduction in survival of cells treated with alpha,omega-dihaloalkanes is greatly enhanced by the presence of O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT), a DNA repair protein that removes O6-alkylguanine adducts from DNA [Liu, L., Hachey, D. L., Valadez
J A Hoppin et al.
The European respiratory journal, 34(6), 1296-1303 (2009-06-23)
Although specific pesticides have been associated with wheeze in farmers, little is known about pesticides and asthma. Data from 19,704 male farmers in the Agricultural Health Study were used to evaluate lifetime use of 48 pesticides and prevalent adult-onset asthma
Robert McKeever et al.
Journal of hazardous materials, 209-210, 92-98 (2012-02-04)
Although 1,2-dibromoethane (EDB) is a common groundwater contaminant, there is the lack of knowledge surrounding EDB biodegradation, especially under aerobic conditions. We have performed an extensive microcosm study to investigate the biodegradation of EDB under simulated in situ and biostimulated
