Abstract
The recent advances in nanotechnology and the corresponding increase in the use of nanomaterials in products in every sector of society have resulted in uncertainties regarding environmental impacts. The objectives of this review are to introduce the key aspects pertaining to nanomaterials in the environment and to discuss what is known conc...... hiện toàn bộ Adverse outcome pathways: A conceptual framework to support ecotoxicology research and risk assessment Tập 29 Số 3 - Trang 730-741 - 2010

AbstractEcological risk assessors face increasing demands to assess more chemicals, with greater speed and accuracy, and to do so using fewer resources and experimental animals. New approaches in biological and computational sciences may be able to generate mechanistic information that could help in meeting these challenges. However, to use mechanistic data to supp...... hiện toàn bộ Bioaccumulation and toxicity of silver compounds: A review Tập 18 Số 1 - Trang 89-108 - 1999
Hans Toni Ratte
AbstractA eview of the literature revealed that bioaccumulation of silver in soil is rather low, even if the soil is amended with silver‐containing sewage sludge. Plants grown on tailings of silver mines were found to have silver primarily in the root systems. In marine and freshwater systems, the highest reported bioconcentration factors (BCFs) were observed in al...... hiện toàn bộ Integrated biomarker response: A useful tool for ecological risk assessment Tập 21 Số 6 - Trang 1316-1322 - 2002
Benoı̂t Beliaeff, Thierry Burgeot
AbstractA battery of biomarkers is often used to evaluate the effects of exposure to chemical contaminants and detect responses to environmental stress. Unfortunately, field application of biomarkers is subject to various constraints (e.g., the availability of living material) that can limit data acquisition and prevent the use of multivariate methods during statis...... hiện toàn bộ Contamination of surface, ground, and drinking water from pharmaceutical production Tập 28 Số 12 - Trang 2522-2527 - 2009
Jerker Fick, Hanna Söderström, Richard H. Lindberg, Chau Phan, Mats Tysklind, D. G. Joakim Larsson
AbstractLow levels of pharmaceuticals are detected in surface, ground, and drinking water worldwide. Usage and incorrect disposal have been considered the major environmental sources of these microcontaminants. Recent publications, however, suggest that wastewater from drug production can potentially be a source of much higher concentrations in certain locations. T...... hiện toàn bộ Rethinking microplastics as a diverse contaminant suite Tập 38 Số 4 - Trang 703-711 - 2019

Groundwater ubiquity score: A simple method for assessing pesticide leachability Tập 8 Số 4 - Trang 339-357 - 1989
David I. Gustafson
AbstractGovernment agencies at both the state and federal levels now face increasing pressures to assess the likelihood of pesticide occurrence in well‒water supplies. Screening methodologies are required in order to determine which pesticides now in use should receive the greatest attention with respect to groundwater, and in order to determine whether elaborate a...... hiện toàn bộ Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in sediments and mussels of the western Mediterranean sea Tập 17 Số 5 - Trang 765-776 - 1998
P. Baumard, Hélène Budzinski, Philippe Garrigues
AbstractThe distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been investigated in superficial sediments and mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) of the western Mediterranean sea (French Riviera, Corsica, Sardinia). The analyses were performed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC‐MS). The PAH concentrations rang...... hiện toàn bộ
