Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are typical lasting organic pollutants. Persistence and
recalcitrance to biodegradation of PCBs have hampered the transformation of PCB …

Marine sediments are a major sink of organohalide pollutants, but the potential for offshore
marine microbiota to transform these pollutants remains underexplored. Here, we report …

Microbial reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is regarded as an
alternative approach for in situ remediation and detoxification in the environment. To better …

Microbial-catalyzed reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is largely
affected by the indigenous sediment geochemical properties. In this study, the effects of …

Synthetic chlorinated organic compounds—polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)—have been
used in several industrial applications for over 50 years and are among the most persistent …

Abstract The megasite Bitterfeld-Wolfen is highly contaminated as a result of accidents and
because of dumping of wastes from local chemical industries in the last century. A variety of …

Triphenyl phosphate (TPHP), an organophosphate flame retardant, was detected in river
water samples collected from an electronic waste recycling area in Guiyu, Southern China …

In this study, six PCE-to-ethene dechlorinating cultures, fed with a fermentable substrate
(lactate) or hydrogen as electron donor, were obtained from PCB and PCE dechlorinating …

Aroclor 1254 was the second most produced commercial PCB mixture and is found in soils,
sediments and sewage throughout the globe. This commercial PCB mixture is considered …

Microbial reductive dechlorination of organohalogenated pollutants is often limited by the
scarcity of electron donors, that can be overcome with microbial electrochemical …
