Ecotoxicity Evaluation of the Biodegradable Polymers PLA, PBAT and its Blends Using Allium cepa as Test Organism
(2018-03-01)
Biodegradable polymers are considered a feasible option to minimize the environment impacts of high disposal of solid waste. Nevertheless, environmental safety of these materials is a few explored issue. In this context, ...
Which route to take for diclofenac removal from water: Hydroxylation or direct photolysis?
(2019-09-01)
This study aimed at comparing the performance of hydroxylation and direct photolysis for removing diclofenac from water. Several parameters were assessed: degradation kinetics, mineralization degree, lipophilicity (log ...
Atrazine and Methyl viologen effects on Chlorophyll-a fluorescence revisited. Implications in Photosystems Emission and Ecotoxicity Assessment
(Wiley, 2014-01)
In this work, we use the effect of herbicides that affect the photosynthetic chain at dened sites in the photosynthetic reaction steps to derive information about the uorescence emission of photosystems. The interpretation ...
PLA and Organoclays Nanocomposites: Degradation Process and Evaluation of ecotoxicity Using Allium cepa as Test Organism
(2013-07-17)
In this study, nanocomposites of PLA and organoclays Cloisite 20A and Cloisite 30B were prepared by the melt intercalation method and the obtained samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Since ...
N-Acetylated Gemini Surfactants: Synthesis, Surface-Active Properties, Antifungal Activity, and Ecotoxicity Bioassays
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2015-05)
A series of N-acetylated cationic gemini surfactants (3a-e) having dimeric structures derived from tertiary amines were synthesized. Their antifungal potency and surface properties were determined. It also studied the acute ...
Green Manure Species for Phytoremediation of Soil With Tebuthiuron and Vinasse
(2021-01-05)
Tebuthiuron is often used to control weed growth in sugarcane cultures. This herbicide is highly toxic and can persist in soil for up to 2 years according to its degradation half-life. Hence, its residual effect is highly ...
Ecotoxicological and regulatory aspects of environmental sustainability of nanopesticides
(Elsevier, 2021-02-15)
Recent years have seen the development of various colloidal formulations of pesticides and other agrochemicals aimed at use in sustainable agriculture. These formulations include inorganic, organic or hybrid particulates, ...
Production and assessment of the biodegradation and ecotoxicity of xylan- and starch-based bioplastics
(2022-01-01)
Developing novel renewable (and preferably biodegradable) materials has become recurrent due to the growing concerns with environmental impacts of high volumes of plastic waste produced from oil-based sources over the past ...
