Predicting the impacts of chemical pollutants on animal groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Chemical pollution is among the fastest-growing agents of global change. Synthetic chemicals with diverse modes-of-action are being detected in the tissues of wildlife and pervade entire food webs. Although such pollutants can elicit a range of sublethal

An integrated approach to indoor contaminant modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Air pollutants are those chemicals that are not generally present in the atmosphere because of natural causes but are disseminated into the air by human activity. In most parts of Europe, outdoor pollutants are principally the products of combustion from

Synergistic effects of marine pollutants and microplastics on the destabilization of lipid bilayers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The increasing production of plastic worldwide results in increasing amounts of plastic waste dumped into the oceans. Plastic waste is fragmenting into smaller pieces up to micro and nanoplastics, which may cross physiological barriers and affect the ...

Space-time Characteristics of 16 PM2.5-bound Phthalates (PAEs) in Ambient Air from Shanghai: Profiles, Sources, Meteorological Effects, and Exposure Risks

open access: yesAerosol and Air Quality Research, 2023
Generated by chemical combinations between alcohols and phthalic anhydrites, phthalates are a group of synthetic chemicals broadly utilized as plasticizers. They occur in both particle and gas phases in the air causing threats to human health.

Seasonal Trends, Profiles, and Exposure Risk of PM2.5-bound Bisphenol Analogs in Ambient Outdoor Air: A Study in Shanghai, China

open access: yesAerosol and Air Quality Research, 2022
Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) possesses a larger surface area, which enables hazardous chemicals to adsorb. The particle can lodge deep in the lungs and bronchi of humans, causing diverse cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.

Study on the cross-flow ultrafiltration of mixtures of macromolecular organic and inorganic salts

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2022
Ultrafiltration (UF) has been widely applied to water treatment in the past few decades, but severe membrane fouling is one of the most significant obstacles for its further development.

Influence of Electrolyte Concentration on Single-Molecule Sensing of Perfluorocarboxylic Acids

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2021
Perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs) are an emerging class of persistent organic pollutants. During the fabrication process, it is unavoidable to form PFCA homologs or isomers which exhibit distinct occurrence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity.

Carassius auratus as a bioindicator of the health status of Lake Trasimeno and risk assessment for consumers

open access: yesItalian Journal of Food Safety, 2023
Fish are good bio-indicators of the health status of the aquatic environment and can be used as biomarkers to assess the aquatic behavior of environmental pollutants, the exposure of aquatic organisms, and the health risk for consumers.
