Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic compounds that have been widely used as flame retardants, coolants or heat transfer agents in electrical transformers, hydraulic fluids, plasticizers or as additives in pesticides, paints, adhesives, sealants, carbonless copy paper, organic diluents,...
Carsamba and Bafra Basins are the two main agricultural basins of Turkey in the region and these rivers receive many pollutants including pesticides from these basins as well as from the cities which they pass through (Bakan et al., 1996; Tufekci, 1996; Ozkoc et al., 1999; Tuncer et al...

(PCB118 and PCB126) may promote inflammation and oxidative stress in thyrocytes, impairing the expression of genes that are key players of thyroid function. These effects can be partially attributed to the activation of the AhR and Nrf-2 pathways. These data may contribute to explain the ...
The sampling sites were designated II (highly contaminated soil with the wastes of some chemical, insecticides, and pesticides producing factories), I (slightly contaminated soil 10 km far from the wastes), and 0 (supposed to be non-polluted soil 50 km far from the wastes). These samples (...
