Abstract:In this study, the toxicity of 49 mixed halogenated benzenes to Dicrateria zhanjiangensis was determined and the partition coefficient of these mixtures was described by using the C(18)-Empore disks/water partition coefficient (K(mix)). According to these data, a simple K(mix)-based QSAR model was successfully used to correlate the toxicity of the mixed halogenated benzenes to D. zhanjiangensis.
“…40 It revealed that the octanol-water partition coefficients (log K ow ) correlated well with the toxicity of chemicals. 41 The order of log K ow was 2,4-dinitrotoluene (1.98) < chlorobenzene (2.89) < p-dichlorobenzene (3.44) < 1,2,3-trichlorobenzene (4.05) < hexachlorobenzene (5.2), and the genotoxicity potential of the above chemicals showed a good consistency with the values of log K ow . 42 The D pc of these benzene derivatives at the developed biosensor greatly matches with the toxicity potential of these analytes showing that the dsDNA/Au biosensor has a great potential for rapid and efficient evaluation of the genotoxicity of chemicals, and it is in agreement with our previous study.…”

“…A single study [86] employing an integral, non-additive approach was retrieved. Within, toxicity of a series of binary 1:1 combinations consisting of simple substituted benzenes was modelled through use of quantum chemical descriptors.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
