The role of organic amendment in soils affected by residual pollution of potentially harmful elements

Chemosphere, 2019
The addition of organic amendment in soils affected by residual pollution of potentially harmful elements (PHEs) is evaluated. The area was polluted twenty years ago and remediation actions were intensively applied, but evidence of pollution are still detected in some sectors.

Potential transfer of aquatic organisms via ballast water with a particular focus on harmful and non-indigenous species: A survey from Adriatic ports

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2019
Ballast water discharges may cause negative impacts to aquatic ecosystems, human health and economic activities by the introduction of potentially harmful species. Fifty untreated ballast water tanks, ten in each port, were sampled in four Adriatic Italian ports and one Slovenian port.

ASSESSMENT OF THE POTENTIAL FOR MANAGING PHYTOSANITARY RISKS OF REDUCING THE PRODUCTIVITY OF FEED AGROECOSYSTEMS FROM HARMFUL ORGANISMS WITH PROTECTIVE MEASURES

Multifunctional adaptive fodder 30 (78), 2023
Based on the developed method, the assessment of indicators of phytosanitary potential of risk management of productivity losses of feed agroecosystems as a result of the spread of harmful organisms (pests, pathogens and weeds) in feed agroecosystems in Russia was carried out. When determining the risks of productivity losses, data on areas, yields and

Flower Color Change Demonstration as a Visualization of Potential Harmful Effects Associated with Ammonia Gas on Living Organisms

Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
This manuscript describes a simple yet meaningful demonstration that can be easily adopted by high-school teachers to emphasize some potential dangers associated with gas inhalation. The demonstration aims to illustrate the undesirable effects of some gases on living organisms by employing freshly cut, colored flowers and ammonia gas.

Potential harmful effects of landfill stabilized waste: semi-volatile organic compounds and salinity, a case study in Beijing, China

Environmental Earth Sciences, 2017
Landfill stabilized waste (LSW) is the aged municipal solid waste mined from old landfills. It is a soil-like material containing high value of organic matter and nutrients and thus may be used as topsoil substitute. To evaluate the potential harmful effects, LSW was sampled from five landfills around Beijing, China.

Potential risks of organic contaminated soil after persulfate remediation: Harmful gaseous sulfur release

Journal of Environmental Sciences
Persulfate is considered a convenient and efficient remediation agent for organic contaminated soil. However, the potential risk of sulfur into the soil remediation by persulfate remains ignored. In this study, glass bottles with different persulfate dosages and groundwater tables were set up to simulate persulfate remediation of organic pollutants ...

[Evaluation of potential harmful effects of organic pollutants in tap water on mice in vivo].

Zhonghua yu fang yi xue za zhi [Chinese journal of preventive medicine], 2004
To study the harmful effects of organic concentrates from tap water on mammal animals in vivo.Organic pollutants were absorbed with resin XAD-2 from tap water and administered the mice via a stomach tube or intraperitoneal injection. Micronucleus rate in bone marrow polychromatic erythrocytes, testicular chromosome aberration rate, indices for immune ...

The Measurement of the Dermal Bioavailability of Potentially Harmful Organic Soil Contaminants

2022
Currently only one value is used to predict the human health risk of the dermal absorption of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) from soil for contaminated land risk assessments. Research has shown that soil PAH dermal bioavailability differs between soils, and additionally that differences in skin physiology results in variation in the quantity of
