Article Synopsis
- The article emphasizes the importance of effectively assessing noise annoyance as it is a common reaction in communities exposed to environmental noise.
- It reviews the development and updates of the International Standards Organization's Technical Specification for assessing noise annoyance, originally published in 2003 and updated in 2021.
- The paper discusses methodological challenges with existing assessment scales and calls for further standardization and multidimensional approaches to enhance noise annoyance research.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are environmental contaminants with cytotoxic, teratogenic and carcinogenic properties. Bioremediation studies with bacteria have led to the identification of dioxygenases (DOXs) in the first step to degrade these recalcitrant compounds. In this study, we characterized the role of the Arabidopsis thaliana AT5G05600, a putative DOX of the flavonol synthase family, in the transformation of PAHs.
