Journal ArticleDOI
Microplastic pollution, a threat to marine ecosystem and human health: a short review
TL;DR: Because of the recent threat of microplastics to marine biota as well as on human health, it is important to control excessive use of plastic additives and to introduce certain legislations and policies to regulate the sources of plastic litter.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel degradation pathway in the assimilation of phenanthrene by Staphylococcus sp. strain PN/Y via meta-cleavage of 2 -hydroxy -1 -naphthoic acid : formation of trans-2,3-dioxo-5-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-pent-4-enoic acid
TL;DR: This detailed study of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolism by a Gram-positive species involving a unique ring-cleavage dioxygenase in a novel phenanthrene degradation pathway provides a new insight into the microbial degradation of PAHs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolism of butyl benzyl phthalate by Gordonia sp. strain MTCC 4818.
TL;DR: The microbial degradative characteristics of butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) were investigated by the Gordonia sp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of cadmium on husk of Lathyrus sativus: Physico-chemical study
TL;DR: Cadmium replaced calcium of the biomass as revealed from the EDX analysis indicating that the adsorption proceeds through ion exchange mechanism, and was found to follow pseudo-second order rate kinetics.
Journal Article
Microplastics in our oceans and marine health
TL;DR: The potential of microplastics to absorb various harmful hydrophobic pollutants from the surrounding environment indirectly transfers these contaminants in the food chain is discussed in this paper, and various policies and rules must be formulated.
