Journal ArticleDOI
Polychlorinated Biphenyl Dechlorination in Aquatic Sediments
John F. Brown,Donna L. Bedard,Michael J. Brennan,James Claude Carnahan,Helen Feng,Robert E. Wagner +5 more
TL;DR: The polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) residues in the aquatic sediments from six PCB spill sites showed changes in PCB isomer and homolog (congener) distribution that indicated the occurrence of reductive dechlorination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental dechlorination of PCBs
John F. Brown,Helen Feng,Donna L. Bedard,Michael J. Brennan,James Claude Carnahan,Ralph J. May +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the congener reactivity of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in sediment and/or fish samples from at least five different locations showed changes in gas chromatographic peak distribution indicative of reductive dechlorination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comprehensive, quantitative, congener-specific analyses of eight aroclors and complete PCB congener assignments on DB-1 capillary GC columns
George M. Frame,Robert E. Wagner,James Claude Carnahan,John F. Brown,Ralph J. May,Lynn A. Smullen,Donna L. Bedard +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, complete polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congener assignments and weight percent distributions for all major (> 0.5 wt %) PCB components of Aroclors 1221, 1232, 1242, 1016, 1248, 1254, 1260, 1262 were determined by DB-1 (polydimethylsiloxane) capillary GC columns.
Journal ArticleDOI
PCB movement, dechlorination, and detoxication in the acushnet estuary
John F. Brown,Robert E. Wagner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, Congener-specific analyses of the PCBs in Acushnet Estuary (New Bedford, MA) sediments and waters were undertaken to identify the PCB alteration and transport processes occurring in coastal marine sediments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) partitioning between adipose tissue and serum.
John F. Brown,Richard W. Lawton +1 more
TL;DR: T theoretical considerations and experimental data show that variabilities in the partitioning of chronically retained lipophilic xenobiotics between adipose tissue and serum may be relatable to variations in the lipid content of the serum for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in humans.
