Effects of PCB exposure on serum thyroid hormone levels in dogs and cats
(Elsevier, 2019)Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and their hydroxylated metabolites (OH-PCBs) might disrupt thyroid function. However, there is no clear evidence of PCB exposure disrupting thyroid hormone (TH) homeostasis in dogs and cats. ... -
Halogenated natural products and anthropogenic persistent organic pollutants in chokka squid (Loligo reynaudii) from three sites along the South Atlantic and Indian Ocean coasts of South Africa
(Elsevier, 2019)Chokka squid (Loligo reynaudii) from three sites along the South African coast were analyzed for halogenated natural products (HNPs) and anthropogenic persistent organic pollutants (POPs). HNPs were generally more than one ... -
Molecular Characterisation of Bacteria and their Degradation Role on Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Wastewater from Gaborone (Botswana) and Mafikeng (South Africa)
(North-West University (South Africa), 2018)This thesis is a study on biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in wastewater by bacteria isolated from wastewater as an alternative means of treating wastewater for ...
