  2. Picoline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picoline

    Picoline degradation appears to be mediated primarily by bacteria, with the majority of isolates belonging to the Actinobacteria. 3-Methylpyridine degrades more slowly than the other two isomers, likely due to the impact of resonance in the heterocyclic ring.

  3. 3-Methylpyridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-Methylpyridine

    3-Methylpyridine or 3-picoline, is an organic compound with formula 3-CH 3 C 5 H 4 N. It is one of three positional isomers of methylpyridine, whose structures vary according to where the methyl group is attached around the pyridine ring. This colorless liquid is a precursor to pyridine derivatives that have applications in the pharmaceutical ...

  4. 2-Methylpyridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methylpyridine

    2-Methylpyridine, or 2-picoline, is the compound described with formula C 6 H 7 N. 2-Picoline is a colorless liquid that has an unpleasant odor similar to pyridine. It is mainly used to make vinylpyridine and the agrichemical nitrapyrin .

  5. Microbial biodegradation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_biodegradation

    Microbial biodegradation is the use of bioremediation and biotransformation methods to harness the naturally occurring ability of microbial xenobiotic metabolism to degrade, transform or accumulate environmental pollutants, including hydrocarbons (e.g. oil), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), heterocyclic compounds (such as pyridine or quinoline ...

  6. Picolinic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picolinic_acid

    Picolinic acid is an organic compound with the formula NC 5 H 4 CO 2 H.It is a derivative of pyridine with a carboxylic acid (COOH) substituent at the 2-position. It is an isomer of nicotinic acid and isonicotinic acid, which have the carboxyl side chain at the 3- and 4-positions, respectively.

  7. Pyridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyridine

    It is a highly flammable, weakly alkaline, water-miscible liquid with a distinctive, unpleasant fish-like smell. Pyridine is colorless, but older or impure samples can appear yellow, due to the formation of extended, unsaturated polymeric chains, which show significant electrical conductivity .

  8. Agents of deterioration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agents_of_deterioration

    Water is one of the agents of deterioration. Its effects can be seen in these flood-damaged library books. The 'ten agents of deterioration' are a conceptual framework developed by the Canadian Conservation Institute (CCI) used to categorise the major causes of change, loss or damage to cultural heritage objects (such as collections held by galleries, libraries, archives and museums).
