Impact of changes in governance for anticoagulant rodenticide use on non-target exposure in red foxes (Vulpes vulpes)

Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology
Wildlife is at risk of exposure to rodenticides used in pest management. An industry-led stewardship scheme introduced new rules on use and sale of products across the UK in 2016, with the aim of reducing this risk.

The immobilization and adsorption mechanisms of agro-waste based biochar: A review on the effectiveness of pyrolytic temperatures on heavy metal removal

Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology
The multifunctional properties of biochar make it a promising adsorbent of heavy metals for environmental bioremediation. Pyrolytic temperature is a key factor that impacts the properties, performance, and mechanisms of agro-wastes-derived biochar ...

Influence of biochar on the remediation of cadmium-contaminated soil in an Eisenia fetida–Solanum nigrum system

Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology
Biochar, plants, and earthworms have good remediation effects on cadmium (Cd)-contaminated soils. However, few studies have combined all three technologies to explore the treatment of Cd-contaminated soils.

Tire-wear particle leachate at environmentally relevant concentrations exert a hepatotoxic impact on the black-spotted frog by disrupting the gut–liver axis

Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology
As global surface water pollutants, tire-wear particles (TWPs) are increasingly concerning, with TWP leachate hepatotoxicity poorly understood. In this study, based on environmental TWP concentrations, TWP leachate exposure (0, 0.0005, 0.005, 0.05, and 0.
