Interactive Toxic Effects of Agrochemicals on Aquatic Organisms

Abstract : The effects of three common agrochemicals, lindane, methyl parathion and atrazine, on crustaceanDaphnia magna, algaSelenastrum capricornutumand marine bacteriumVibrio fischeriwere investigated in this study. Methyl parathion was the most toxic compound towards all three organisms, while lindane was more toxic toDaphnia magnaandVibrio fischerithan atrazine, and atrazine was more toxic ...

Acute Toxicity of Nine Pesticides as Determined with Conventional Assays and Alternative Microbiotests

Abstract : Conventional bioassays in aquatic toxicology are time and space consuming and depend on the continuous culture and maintenance of the test species. Since Toxkit microbiotests do not suffer ...

Removes Heat Stable Salts (HSS) from Circuits Designed for Carbon Dioxide Removal

The use of amine is a leading technology for CO2 removal in petrochemical and fertilizer plants and capture of CO2 from flue gas generated in coal-fired power stations as part of the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) approach to the mitigation of global warming. Amine solvent technology has been widely used for many years to capture CO2 and H2S in oil refineries and gas processing plants in order ...
