Use of a Simple GIS-Based Model in Mapping the Atmospheric Concentration of γ-HCH in Europe [PDF]
The state-of-the-art of atmospheric contaminant transport modeling provides accurate estimation of chemical concentrations. However, existing complex models, sophisticated in terms of process description and potentially highly accurate, may entail ...

Abstract Background Knowledge about environmental pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PA) risk factors, including pesticide exposure, remains limited. Organochlorine (OC) accumulates in adipose tissue and can help reflect long‐term exposure. Patients and Methods Age and body mass index (BMI) of patients with PA were matched with those undergoing a surgery for a

Compound-specific isotope analysis (CSIA) of micropollutants in the environment — current developments and future challenges [PDF]
Over the last decade, the occurrence of micropollutants in the environment has become a worldwide issue of increasing concern. Compound-specific stable-isotope analysis (CSIA) of natural isotopic abundance may greatly enhance the evaluation of sources ...

Deciphering contaminants and toxins in fermented food for enhanced human health safeguarding
Abstract Fermented foods have been a component of the human diet since ancient times, including live bacteria employed to restore gut health, contributing to the frontline of functional food progression. Human concern about the harmful consequences of possible contaminants has increased significantly as their toxicity, carcinogenicity, and ...

An Assessment of Three Priority Hazardous Substances at the European Scale [PDF]
In this report we present a survey of existing information for the assessment of loads of hazardous substances to the European coastal waters. Based on the information available, we select three example substances (PFOS, trifluralin and lindane) for ...

Abstract Though bioaccumulation of pharmaceuticals by aquatic organisms continues to receive scientific attention, the internal disposition of these contaminants among different tissue compartments of fish species has been infrequently investigated, particularly among fish at different trophic positions. We tested a human to fish biological read‐across

Chirality of pollutants—effects on metabolism and fate [PDF]
In most cases, enantiomers of chiral compounds behave differently in biochemical processes. Therefore, the effects and the environmental fate of the enantiomers of chiral pollutants need to be investigated separately.
