Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phenolic compounds as a large class of metabolites found in plants have attracted attention since long time ago due to their properties and the hope that they will show beneficial health effects when taken as dietary supplements. This book presents the state of the art of some of the natural sources of phenolic compounds, for example, medicinal plants, grapes or blue maize, as well as the modern methods of extraction, quantification, and identification, and there is a special section discussing the treatment, removal, and degradation of phenols, an important issue in those phenols derived from the pharmaceutical or petrochemical industries.

Download or read book Contaminants of Emerging Concern in the Marine Environment written by Victor M. Leon and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2023-03-13 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contaminants of emerging concern in the marine environment: current challenges in marine pollution reviews the available data in relation to contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in the marine environment: main sources, transport pathways, distribution in seawater and sediments, bioaccumulation, and biological effects. Each chapter recaps the most relevant information about the main groups of CECs, describing the particularities and specificities of each group and focusing on the most relevant individual contaminants. CECs are not regulated substances, and therefore not considered in national and international monitoring programs, even though they may have a potential impact on the environment due to their continuous input, relative persistence, and/or toxicity. CECs are relevant not only in continental and coastal areas close to their main sources, but also in the open sea, because some of them are likely to be transported long distances through air deposition or absorbed into particulate material. The persistence of many degradable substances in the marine environment increases when they are absorbed into particulate material/sediments and/or when they are subjected to anaerobic conditions that slow down the degradation kinetic of many contaminants. Bioaccumulation of several CECs has been confirmed in different coastal organisms; however, in general, the information available (species and trophic levels considered) is very limited because most studies are mainly focused on specific coastal areas. This book offers useful information about not regulated contaminants that are not considered in international monitoring programs but have potential impacts in coastal and open-sea areas. Therefore reading the book will allow them to improve their view about the real impact of current-use contaminants in the marine environment. Presents a comprehensive view of the most relevant groups of CECs Includes an overview of each group of CECs, including uses, properties, analysis, distribution, bioaccumulation, and effects Provides information on all environmental compartments and marine areas (coast, continental shelf, and open sea)
Download or read book Marine Phenolics written by Herminia Domínguez and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-08-16 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phenolic compounds are an extremely diverse class of ubiquitous secondary metabolites produced by a variety of organisms playing different biological roles. They have numerous types of demonstrated bioactivities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antitumoral, immunomodulator, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, and antidiabetic activities. Marine organisms produce a vast collection of unique phenolic structures, some of them not found in terrestrial habitats. Progress in different aspects is rapidly advancing, and this Special Issue will provide updated information and recent studies on marine phenolics. Specially, this issue is focused on their chemical characterization, elucidation of their structures, evaluation of their biological properties and mechanisms of action, efficient extraction and purification technologies, development of value-added applications, as well as formulation of novel products.

Download or read book Bioactive Compounds from Marine Foods written by Blanca Hernández-Ledesma and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-09-30 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the IFT Press series, this book reviews the myriadpublished information on bioactive components derived from marinefoods, enabling researchers and product developers to selectappropriate functional ingredients for new products. Chapters cover foods and food ingredients from both animal andplant marine sources, focusing on those which demonstratebiological properties and whose constituent compounds have beenisolated and identified as potentially active. This book furtheraddresses the biological activities of PUFAs (Polyunsaturated fattyacids), oils, phospholipids, proteins and peptides, fibres,carbohydrates, chitosans, vitamins and minerals, fucoxantin,polyphenols, phytosterols, taurine, amongst others. Thesecomponents, found in a variety of marine-derived foods, have beendemonstrated to have preventative properties with regard tohypertension, oxidative stress, inflammation, cardiovasculardiseases, cancer and other human diseases. Extraction methods and analysis techniques are also addressed.Intended for food scientists, food technologists and food engineersin academia, industry and government, this book reviews thesubstantial quantity of current research in this fast-moving andcommercially valuable sector of food and nutrition science.
Download or read book Aquatic Ecotoxicology written by Claude Amiard-Triquet and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-06-11 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquatic Ecotoxicology: Advancing Tools for Dealing with Emerging Risks presents a thorough look at recent advances in aquatic ecotoxicology and their application in assessing the risk of well-known and emerging environmental contaminants.

Download or read book Bioaccumulation in Marine Organisms written by J.M. Neff and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-04-16 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large volumes of produced water are generated and discharged to the coastal and ocean waters worldwide from offshore oil and gas production facilities. There is concern that the chemicals in the produced water may harm marine ecosystems. This book summarizes the bioavailability and marine ecotoxicology of metal and organic contaminants that may occur in oil well produced water at concentrations significantly higher than those in ambient seawater. The contaminants of concern include arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, radium isotopes, zinc, monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, and bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate. The first part of the book is a detailed discussion of the chemical composition of produced water from offshore oil wells worldwide and its fates following discharge to the ocean. The remaining chapters of the book summarize the current scientific literature on the sources and distributions in the ocean of each of the contaminants of concern and their bioaccumulation and toxicity to marine organisms. This book will be of value to: environmental scientists in the oil and gas industry; marine toxicologists and ecological risk assessors in academia, government, and industry; government regulatory agencies concerned with marine environmental protection. The book advances the concept that bioavailability evaluation must be included in all ecological risk assessments and other environmental assessments of chemical contaminants in marine and freshwater ecosystems.
