Source-specific probabilistic contamination risk and health risk assessment of soil heavy metals in a typical ancient mining area.

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
Heavy metal pollution (HMP) from mining operations severely threatens soil ecosystems and human health. Identifying the sources of soil heavy metals (HMs) and assessing source-specific risks are critical for developing effective risk mitigation ...

New insights into health risk assessment on soil trace metal(loid)s: Model improvement and parameter optimization.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2023
Trace metal(loid)s (TMs) in soils may pose potential health risks to humans. Due to model uncertainty and variability of exposure parameters, the traditional health risk assessment (HRA) model may lead to inaccurate risk assessment results.

Pollution, sources, and human health risk assessment of heavy metals in urban areas around industrialization and urbanization-Northwest China.

Chemosphere, 2022
Heavy metal pollution in urban soils and dust is mostly caused by extensive anthropogenic activity during urbanization and industrialization. In this research study, the pollution characteristics, sources, ecological and human health risks of heavy ...

Estimation of the mass of microplastics ingested - A pivotal first step towards human health risk assessment.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2020
The ubiquitous presence of microplastics in the food web has been established. However, the mass of microplastics exposure to humans is not defined, impeding the human health risk assessment.

Heavy metal pollution of road dust in a city and its highly polluted suburb; quantitative source apportionment and source-specific ecological and health risk assessment.

Chemosphere, 2021
Sources of heavy metals (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn) in the road dust of Bandar Abbas city, Iran, and its west suburb were apportioned and the related source-specific ecological and health risks were assessed.

Source-oriented probabilistic health risk assessment of soil potentially toxic elements in a typical mining city.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2022
Identifying potential sources of soil potentially toxic elements (PTEs) and developing source-oriented health risk assessments in typical mining cities are key for pollution prevention and risk management.

Determination of priority control factors for the management of soil trace metal(loid)s based on source-oriented health risk assessment.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2021
Trace metal(loid)s (TMs) in soils can seriously threaten the ecological environment and human health. With the limitation of resources and costs, determining priority control factor is critical for managing soil TM pollution.
