While creosote components have very low water solubility, concerns have been raised about potential environmental effects and stimulated research to minimize migration. Best management practices have been developed but there are few data quantifying their effects. The effects of post-treatment steaming on migration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbo...

In this work, an inexpensive, fast, and selective ionic liquid modified graphene oxide (GO-IL) was synthesized and electrochemically deposited on the inner surface of a stainless-steel tube. Then, it was applied for circulated headspace in-tube solid-phase microextraction (CHS-IT-SPME) of naphthalene from honey samples. Next, the coated tube was re...

As an arthropod biocide, naphthalene has been used in studies of the ecological functions of soil fauna for decades. However, its potential non-target effects on soil microorganisms may affect soil mineralization and litter decomposition processes. Therefore, we conducted an experiment with naphthalene adding to soil surface at a rate of 100 g·m−2 ...

Discovery and development of new therapeutic options for the treatment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection, particularly drug-resistant strains, are urgently required to tackle the global burden of this disease. Herein, we reported the synthesis of a novel series of N-substituted amino acid hydrazides, utilising a scaffold hopping approac...

The Science of the total environment
Naphthalene, a naturally-occurring polyaromatic hydrocarbon, pose potential threats to health for its wide exposures in environment. Naphthalene could disrupt the redox equilibrium resulting in oxidative damage. Antioxidant enzymes catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) are considered to be the efficient defense barriers to protect organisms...

In this study, we aimed at determining the impact of naphthalene and different oxygen levels on a biofilm bacterial community originated from a petroleum hydrocarbon–contaminated groundwater. By using cultivation-dependent and cultivation-independent approaches, the enrichment, identification, and isolation of aerobic and oxygen-limited naphthalene...

Hydrogen sulfide shows great importance in various physiological and biochemical processes. The development of fluorescence probes for facile and efficient detection of H2S has attracted increasing attention of researchers. Herein, we synthesized two fluorescence probes based on simple naphthalene structure for detection of H2S. Upon reaction with ...

A newly marine Halomonas pacifica strain Cnaph3 was isolated, as a naphthalene degrader and biosurfactant producer, from contaminated seawater collected in Ataya’s fishing harbor, located in Kerkennah Islands, Tunisia. Chromatography flame ionization detector analysis revealed that 98.8% of naphthalene (200 mg/L) was degraded after 7 days of incuba...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) mainly originate from incomplete combustion of organic materials and are, among other sources, found in traffic emissions, smoked or barbecued food, leafy vegetables, and tobacco smoke. Some PAH or their metabolites are hazardous for health and classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic, or toxic to reproduction. U...

Advances in food and nutrition research
Numerous studies have demonstrated that dozens of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are mutagenic, genotoxic and strongly carcinogenic. PAHs are found to be widely present in foods contaminated through multiple paths. Due to their lipophilic nature, these compounds easily accumulate in edible oils and fatty foods where they can range from no ...
