In this paper, we evaluated the ecotoxicological potential of the 100 pharmaceuticals
expected to occur in highest quantities in the wastewater of a general hospital and a …

2, 4-Dichlorophenol (2, 4-DCP) is known as an important chemical intermediate and an
environmental endocrine disruptor. There is no paper dealing with the predicted no-effect …

Abstract At the SETAC Pellston Workshop “The Tissue Residues Approach for Toxicity
Assessment,” held in June 2007, we discussed mixture toxicology in terms of the tissue …

Compounds with different modes of action may affect life cycles of biota differently. The aim
of the present study was therefore to investigate the impact of four chemicals with different …

Within the EU, ash should be classified by its inherent hazardous effects under criterion H-

There is the need to integrate existing toxicity data in a coherent framework for extending
their domain of applicability as well as their extrapolation potential. This integration would …

It has been argued that current approaches for ecological risk assessment (ERA) do not
provide value relevance for risk managers and that the uncertainty in the predictions is large …

Ecological risk assessments of chemicals are often based on simple measurements of
toxicity in individuals. However, the protection goals are often set at the population and …
