Hexachlorobenzene is a tumor co-carcinogen and induces alterations in insulin-growth factors signaling pathway in the rat mammary gland," Toxicological Sciences, vol.
Rozman published results that argue strongly that
hexachlorobenzene (HCB) enters the intestinal tract primarily in the large intestine [14].
Moreover, ultrasound irradiation treatment was found to be more effective to polycyclic aromatics hydrocarbon than polychlorinated hydrocarbon like
hexachlorobenzene, which may be attributed to the different chemical composition of these contaminants.
The o,p'-DDT, p,p'-DDE and
hexachlorobenzene showed better extraction efficiency in an NaCl concentration of 1% (w [v.sup.-1]).
(5) HCB =
hexachlorobenzene, [alpha]-HCH = [alpha]-hexachlorocyclohexane, sum PCB = sum 24 polychlorinated biphenyl congeners.
The concentrations of aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, DDT, hexachlorocyclohexane, and
hexachlorobenzene remained below the established target values in all bottom sediments.
They are subjected to strict controls under the Stockholm Convention which forbids or limits the production, use and marketing of twelve POPs: DDT, aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, chlordane, heptachlor,
hexachlorobenzene, mirex, toxaphene, polychlorinated biphenyls, dioxins, and furans was transposed into European Community law by Regulation 850/2004EC.
The polymerization process used to manufacture a new range of crystal-clear and colored acrylic molding compounds for automotive signal lights uses neither tetrachlorophthalic anhydride (TCPA) nor
hexachlorobenzene (HCB).
Within this sequence, contamination in the sediment increased 10-fold for the pesticide
hexachlorobenzene and 25-fold for mercury.
To the dismay of Beyond Pesticides, penta's revised risk assessment neglects to take into account two highly hazardous constitutents: dioxins and
hexachlorobenzene (HCB).
Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) was also used as a pesticide until 1965 as well as in other products like fireworks.
These include chlorinated organic pollutants (
hexachlorobenzene) and metals (mercury and cadmium).
