It is the most widely used herbicide in the world, and the third most commonly used in North America.[1] 2,4-D is also an important synthetic auxin, often used in laboratories for plant research and as a supplement in plant cell culture media such as MS medium. History 2,4-D was developed during World War II by a British team at Rothamsted Experimental Station, under the leadership of Judah Hirsch Quastel, aiming to increase crop yields for a nation at war.[citation needed] When it was commercially released in 1946, it became the first successful selective herbicide and allowed for greatly enhanced weed control in wheat, maize (corn), rice, and similar cereal grass crop, because it only kills dicots, leaving behind monocots. Mechanism of herbicide action 2,4-D is a synthetic auxin, which is a class of plant growth regulators.

ALKYLPHENOL ETHOXYLATES Alkylphenol ethoxylates, in particular nonylphenol and octylphenol ethoxyaltes, are widely used as non-ionic surfactants. Alkylphenol ethoxylates are suspected endocrine disruptors. Nonyl phenol ethoxylates are banned in many countries and are on the second Priority Substance List (PSL2) of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act. Low molecular weight alkylphenol ethoxylates are analyzed by GC-MS, and high molecular weight alkylphenol ethoxylates can be analyzed by HPLC techniques. Chiron offers a unique and broad range of single isomer of octyl- and nonylphenol ethoxylates as solution standards. These solutions can be used as calibration standards for GC-MS analysis of waste water and waste water sludges. In addition Chiron offers neat material in mg to g scale for exposure and toxicological studies. Custom synthesis and custom manufactured solutions are available on request.

So far, a variety of dechlorinating bacteria have been isolated, which contained members in diverse phylogenetic group such as genera Desulfitobacterium and “Dehalococcoides”. In this review, we introduced the up-to date knowledge of bacteria that dechlorinate aromatic chlorides and new candidate, Dehalobacter spp., as promising bacteria that dechlorinate aromatic chlorides. Keywords: reductive dehalogenation, aromatic chlorides, Dehalobacter INTRODUCTION Aromatic chlorides such as chlorinated phenols, benzenes, biphenyls, and dibenzo- p-dioxins are compounds of serious environmental concern because of their widespread use and hazardous effects for animals and plants and frequently encountered as persistent pollutants

  • Toxicological Profile for Chlorophenols; Thus, the Literature Search Was Restricted to Studies Published Between 1997 and 2019
    Toxicological Profile for Chlorophenols Draft for Public Comment July 2021 CHLOROPHENOLS ii DISCLAIMER Use of trade names is for identification only and does not imply endorsement by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, the Public Health Service, or the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This information is distributed solely for the purpose of pre dissemination public comment under applicable information quality guidelines. It has not been formally disseminated by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. It does not represent and should not be construed to represent any agency determination or policy. ***DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT*** CHLOROPHENOLS iii FOREWORD This toxicological profile is prepared in accordance with guidelines developed by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The original guidelines were published in the Federal Register on April 17, 1987. Each profile will be revised and republished as necessary. The ATSDR toxicological profile succinctly characterizes the toxicologic and adverse health effects information for these toxic substances described therein. Each peer-reviewed profile identifies and reviews the key literature that describes a substance's toxicologic properties. Other pertinent literature is also presented, but is described in less detail than the key studies. The profile is not intended to be an exhaustive document; however, more comprehensive sources of specialty information are referenced. The focus of the profiles is on health and toxicologic information; therefore, each toxicological profile begins with a relevance to public health discussion which would allow a public health professional to make a real-time determination of whether the presence of a particular substance in the environment poses a potential threat to human health.

  • Monochlorophenols
    Euro Chlor Risk Assessment for the Marine Environment OSPARCOM Region - North Sea Monochlorophenols February 2002 Monochlorophenols 02/2002 EURO CHLOR RISK ASSESSMENT FOR THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT MONOCHLOROPHENOLS OSPARCOM Region – North Sea EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Euro Chlor has voluntarily agreed to carry out risk assessment of 25 chemicals related to the chlorine industry, specifically for the marine environment and according to the methodology laid down in the EU risk assessment Regulation (1488/94) and the Guidance Documents of the EU Existing Substances Regulation (793/93). The study consists of the collection and evaluation of data on effects and environmental concentrations. Basically, the effect data are derived from laboratory toxicity tests and exposure data from analytical monitoring programs. Finally the risk is indicated by comparing the “predicted environmental concentrations” (PEC) with the “predicted no effect concentrations” (PNEC), expressed as a hazard quotient for the marine aquatic environment. To determine the PNEC value, three different trophic levels are considered: aquatic plants, invertebrates and fish. In the case of chlorophenols (2 chlorophenol, 3 chlorophenol, 4 chlorophenol) 34 data for fish, 30 data for invertebrates and 15 data for algae have been evaluated according to the quality criteria recommended by the European authorities. As toxicity results on aquatic organisms seem to be comparable for the three isomers considered, data were pooled for the final PNEC calculation. Both acute and chronic toxicity studies have been taken into account and the appropriate assessment factors have been used to define a final PNECwater value of 30 µg/l, and a PNECsed value of 258 µg/kg. The available monitoring data, applied to various surface waters and sediments, were used to calculate PECs.

  • Sources and Transformations of Chlorophenols in the Natural Environment
    Science of the Total Environment 322 (2004) 21–39 Review Sources and transformations of chlorophenols in the natural environment Marianna Czaplicka* Institute of Non-Ferrous Metals, 44-100 Gliwice, Sowinskiego´ 5 Gliwice, Poland Received 28 February 2003; accepted 5 September 2003 Abstract The present review updates our knowledge about chlorophenols, their chemical reactions and transformations in the natural environment, as well as factors affecting kinetics and mechanisms of these processes.Effects of pH of the environment and structure of molecules (also the number of chlorine atoms and their position in the molecule) on the behaviour of these compounds in the natural environment are also discussed.In addition, ways of propagation of chlorophenols in the natural environment are presented and discussed on the background of their physical and chemical properties, which influence the propagation rate in the ecosystems. ᮊ 2003 Elsevier B.V.

Sources of chlorophenols Grimvall, 1991; Grimvall et al., 1994).In this case, probably natural reactions of humic acid Chlorophenols are synthetic organic compounds, chlorination are the main source of chlorophenol obtained on large, industrial and commercial scales formation (Gribble, 1995).Laboratory investiga- by chlorinating phenol or hydrolysing chloroben- tions carried out by Hodin et al. (1991) showed zenes.Chlorophenols also arise as an intermediate that 2,4,6-trichlorophenol had been formed after product at some stages of 2,3-dichlorophenoxyace- addition of chloroperoxidase, hydrogen peroxide tate acid production (Kent and James, 1983),or and potassium chloride to the fungi Culduriomyces during wood pulp bleaching.Kringstad and Lind- fumugo.Chloroperoxidase catalyzes the chlorina- ( ) strom¨ 1984 describe in detail the formation of tion of aromatic structures, such as phenols and chlorophenols in the wood pulp bleaching process.
