[source] Oxidative transformation of tetrachlorophenols and trichlorophenols by manganese dioxideENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY & CHEMISTRY, Issue 6 2009Ling Zhao Abstract This study examined the transformation kinetics of three tetrachlorophenols (TeCPs) and three trichlorophenols (TCPs) in the presence of MnO2 under different solution chemistry conditions. The reaction rate measured for each CP decreased as a function of solution pH, and under the same solution chemistry conditions, the measured rates may depend primarily on both the adsorbability at the MnO2 surfaces and the isomeric structures of the CPs. Isomeric effects indicated that chloro substituent on ortho or para positions exhibited faster rates of transformation than on meta positions. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis with a derivatization method showed that dimers including polychlorinated phenoxyphenols and chlorinated polyhydroxybi-phenyl were among the major products for all CPs. Monomeric products were among the major products of 2,4,6-TCP, 2,3,4-TCP, and 2,3,4,6-TeCP, whereas trimeric products also were among the major products of 2,3,4-TCP and 2,4,5-TCP. It appeared that hydroxylation of CPs and formation of dimeric or trimeric products via oxidative coupling were the major reaction mechanisms involved in the oxidation of CPs by MnO2. [source] Oxidative metabolism by Thalassiosira weissflogii (Bacillariophyceae) of a diol-ester of okadaic acid, the diarrhetic shellfish poisoningJOURNAL OF PHYCOLOGY, Issue 2 2000Anthony J. Windust Previous investigations into the comparative toxicity of the diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins to Thalassiosira weissflogii (Grun.) Fryxell et Hasle found that this diatom oxidatively metabolized okadaic acid diol-ester (OA diol-ester) to a more water-soluble product. This oxidative transformation of OA diol-ester by the diatom is significant for two reasons. First, it is known that dinophysistoxin-4 (DTX-4), the primary DSP toxin produced by the dinoflagellate Exuviaella lima (Ehr.) Butschli, will be hydrolyzed to the diol-ester following cell rupture (e.g. ingestion by a predator). Second, it implies that the ester, an uncharged, lipophilic intermediate, can easily enter cells and therefore may play an important role in the uptake and transfer of DSP toxins through the food web. It has been suggested that the water soluble DTX-4 may also be the form in which DSP toxins are excreted from the producing cell. Therefore, the stability of DTX-4 was examined when incubated either in fresh seawater medium into which washed cells of E. lima were introduced or in seawater medium conditioned by E. lima cells. Rapid hydrolysis of DTX-4 to the diol-ester took place in both cases. Thus, regardless of the route by which DTX-4 is liberated from the cell, either by cell disruption or excretion, the diol-ester will be the dominant form of the toxin to challenge associated organisms. To examine the metabolism of OA diol-ester by T. weissflogii in more detail, serial cultures of the diatom were challenged with OA diol-ester at a concentration of 2.0 ,g·mL,1. The metabolism and fate of the diol-ester in both cellular and medium fractions were monitored over 3 days using liquid chromatography with either ultraviolet (LC-UV) or mass spectrometric (LC-MS) detection. During the course of the experiment, all of the diol-ester was metabolized. LC-MS analysis revealed the presence of multiple oxidative products of OA diol-ester in the medium fraction, including a carboxylic acid derivative. The major metabolites were isolated in sufficient quantity to permit structural elucidation by NMR and MS. All the metabolites identified resulted from oxidation of the diol-ester side chain with the primary sites of attack at the terminal, subterminal, and unsaturated carbons. OA was found in both cellular and medium fractions, and its production was directly correlated with the metabolism of the diol-ester. The relative partitioning of both OA diol-ester and its oxidation products between cells and medium supports the contention that OA diol-ester can readily enter cells, be metabolized, and then excreted in more water-soluble forms.
