Hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) as new Stockholm Convention POPs--a global perspective on the management of Lindane and its waste isomers.
John Vijgen,Purushothaman Chirakkuzhyil Abhilash,Purushothaman Chirakkuzhyil Abhilash,Yi-Fan Li,Yi-Fan Li,Yi-Fan Li,Rup Lal,Rup Lal,Martin Forter,João Paulo Machado Torres,Nandita Singh,Mohammad Yunus,Chongguo Tian,Andreas Schäffer,Roland Weber +14 more
TL;DR: The paper highlights the environmental relevance of deposited HCH wastes and the related POPs’ contaminated sites and provides suggestions for further steps to address the challenge of the legacy of HCH/Lindane production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochemistry of Microbial Degradation of Hexachlorocyclohexane and Prospects for Bioremediation
Rup Lal,Gunjan Pandey,Pooja Sharma,Kirti Kumari,Shweta Malhotra,Rinku Pandey,Vishakha Raina,Hans-Peter E. Kohler,Christof Holliger,Colin J. Jackson,John G. Oakeshott +10 more
TL;DR: It is important to develop a better understanding of the biochemistries of the LinA and LinB variants and to use that knowledge to build better variants, because field trials of some bioremediation strategies based on the Lin pathway have yielded promising results but would not yet achieve economic levels of remediation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation, metabolism, and effects of organochlorine insecticides on microorganisms.
Rup Lal,D.M. Saxena +1 more
TL;DR: The effects of parathion on the growth of bacteria, fungi, and algae is shown to be dose dependent, with very low concentrations having no effect at all and higher concentrations drastically arresting the multiplication of the microorganisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioactive compounds from marine actinomycetes
TL;DR: Bioactive compounds from marine actinomycetes possess distinct chemical structures that may form the basis for synthesis of new drugs that could be used to combat resistant pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloning and characterization of lin genes responsible for the degradation of Hexachlorocyclohexane isomers by Sphingomonas paucimobilis strain B90.
Rekha Kumari,Sanjukta Subudhi,Mrutyunjay Suar,Gauri Dhingra,Vishakha Raina,Charu Dogra,Sukanya Lal,Jan Roelof van der Meer,Christof Holliger,Rup Lal +9 more
TL;DR: The cloning and characterization of the halidohydrolase, dehydrogenase, and reductive dechlorinase genes from S. paucimobilis B90 revealed that they share ∼96 to 99% identical nucleotides with the corresponding genes of S. PaucIMobilis UT26, suggesting that S.paucimobiles B90 contains another pathway for the initial steps of β-HCH degradation.
