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

open access: closedMarine 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.

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

open access: closedJournal 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.

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.

Eobania vermiculata as a potential indicator of nitrate contamination in soil.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2020
The effects of nitrates were analysed on the land snail Eobania vermiculata, a good bioindicator to assess the effects of certain pollutants in soil. It is known that the molluscs are very sensitive to contamination substances and can be used as sentinel

Lead (Pb) induced Oxidative Stress as a Mechanism to Cause Neurotoxicity in Drosophila melanogaster.

Toxicology, 2021
The widespread use of lead (Pb) has caused global contamination, inevitable human exposure, and public health problems. Pb neurotoxicity has been linked to various human diseases, but its associated mechanism causing neurotoxicity is unknown.

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.
