For packed bed reactors, Carberry and Wendel (1963), Hlavacek and Marek (1966), and Carberry and Butt (1975) report that axial dispersion effects are negligible if the reactor length is sufficient. These and other researchers (Young and Finlayson, 1973 Mears, 1976) have developed criteria based on the reactor length for conditions where axial dispersion can safely be neglected. The criterion shown in Table V is a classic criterion for neglecting axial mass dispersion. The works by Young and Finlayson (1973) and Mears (1976) provide more detailed criteria to predict when axial dispersion is unimportant in nonisothermal packed bed reactors.

Results for endocrine disrupting phenols in house dust as reported by Rudel et al. (2003) and Butte et al. (2001) are compiled in Table 11.1. Rudel et al. (2003) sampled indoor air in 120 homes as well. They analyzed both house dust and air for 89 organic chemicals identified as EDCs. The most abundant compounds in air included 4-nonylphenol and 4-t-butylphenol with typical concentrations in the range of 0.050-1.500ggm 3. Saito, Onuki and Seto (2004) collected air samples from houses, offices, and outdoor points. 4-t-butylphenol, 4-t-octylphenol and 4-nonylphenol were detected in both indoor and outdoor air. Concentrations and detection frequencies were higher in indoor air than outdoor air. The maximum levels of 4-t-butylphenol, 4-t-octylphenol and 4-nonylphenol in indoor air were 0.387, 0.0457 and 0.680 ggm 3, respectively. 4-t-butylphenol and 4-nonylphenol were detected with high frequencies (more than 97%) in the indoor air samples. Wilson, Chuang and Lyu (2001) reported a mean of 0.0007 gg m"3 Bisphenol A in the air of 10 child care centers and a mean of 0.203 gg m 3 for the sum of nonylphenol and its ethoxylates. 

Concentrations of some biocides in the indoor environment show a tendency to decrease, others increase. According to the German environmental surveys (GerES), performed for nearly 20 years, concentrations of PCP in house dust are declining, a tendency already reported (Butte, 2003). On the other hand concentrations of lindane, piperonylbutoxide and permethrin seem to increase (Becker et al., 2002 Seifert et al., 2000). 

Similar results regarding house dust were reported by Butte (2004b) for nitro-musks as well as for polycyclic musks. Of the 5 nitro-musks analyzed only musk xylene (l-t-butyl-3.5-dimethyl-2.4.6-trinitrobenzene) and musk ketone were present in nearly all of the 10 samples, but concentrations never exceeded a few milligrams per kilogram. Polycyclic musks however, especially HHCB and AHTN showed rather high residues in the 35 dust samples analyzed with concentrations for HHCB up to about 0.1 gkg-1. 

Regarding house dust, associations between SVOC contaminants in house dust and in blood or urine are contradictory. MeiRner and Schweinsberg (1996) reported an association between PCP concentrations in passively deposited particulate matter and the concentration in urine. A significant correlation for PCP in house dust and urine was also found by Krause and Englert (1980) and Schulz and Butte (2007) for PCP in house dust and concentrations in plasma, respectively (Butte and Heinzow, 1998). But results from Liebl et al. (1996) and Rehwagen et al. (1999) did not confirm the association between PCP in urine and house dust.

Vespidae. Al though the role of CHCs as recognition cues has been intensively studied in a dozen Polistes wasp species (Bonavita-Cougourdan et al., 1991 Lorenzi et al., 1996, 1997 Bagneres et al., 1996a Dani, 2006), as well as in the Vespula wasp (Butts et al., 1993), chemotaxonomy based on venom volatile chemical profiles was reported recently (Bruschini et al., 2007). There is currently no review paper comparing CHCs from the different social wasps studied.

Ouye and Butt 32) have recently shown that a stable sex attractant for males can be extracted from copulating pairs of pink boUworm moths [Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders)], with ether or methylene chloride, and Allen and coworkers ) have reported the extraction of a potent sex attractant from the abdomens of female tobacco homworm moths [Protoparce sexta (Johannson) ] with these same solvents. The chemical nature of these attractants as well as that of the southern armyworm moth [Prodenta eridania (Cramer) ] is at present under investigation in U. S. Department of Agriculture laboratories. 

Kehoe and Butt [J. P. Kehoe and J. B. Butt, AIChE /., 18 (1972) 347] have reported the kinetics of benzene hydrogenation of a supported, partially reduced Ni/kieselguhr catalyst.

In 1979, Butts and Schriver showed that the reaction of [FelCOlj] and PR3 to give [Fe(CO)4PRj] occurs cleanly, fairly rapidly, and in good yield when sodium benzophenone ketyl (BPK) is added to the solution in a catalytic amount.This discovery was remarkable because [FelCOlj] normally requires rigorous thermal or photochemical conditions to afford even poor yields of the CO substitution product, [Fe(CO)4L], and is reported - to have a half-life of years for CO exchange at room temperature. BPK is known to reduce [FelCOlj] to a variety of polynuclear iron car-... 

PKG and PKA are serine/threonine kinases which become activated by agonists that evoke an increase in either cGMP levels or cAMP levels, respectively. Butt et al. (2000) recently reported that activation of PKG and PKA induced serine phosphorylation of eNOS rendering the enzyme Ca " -independent [39]. In this study eNOS was found to be phosphorylated on serine 1177, serine 633 and threonine 495 allowing for enzyme activation in the absence of calcium-calmodulin. Moreover as there are reports that PKA can activate Akt/PKB via a PI3-kinase dependent pathway [43], various intracellular kinase cascades may interact with one another leading to the control of eNOS activity via phosphorylation.
