Soil quality is the competence of soil to perform necessary functions that are able to maintain
animal and plant productivity of the soil. Soil consists of various physical, chemical, and …

Abstract Information on the phytotoxicity of nanoparticles (NPs) at low concentrations (eg,
ppb to low ppm) is scarce. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the effects of …

This book contains important updates and syntheses of our understanding of metal
bioavailability in terrestrial systems. Guidelines on how bioavailability considerations can be …

El bioensayo de toxicidad con semillas de lechuga (Lactuca sativa) es una prueba estática
de toxicidad aguda (120 horas de exposición) en el que se pueden evaluar los efectos …

This paper emphasizes some general aspects of soil protozoa as indicators of
environmental quality—pros and cons, methods, and diversity. Protozoa are at the base of …

Advanced oxidation processes based on ozonation, UV solar radiation, hydrogen peroxide,
and persulfate were tested for the complete treatment of a specific landfill leachate. As a post …

A research of the depuration of landfill leachate using sawdust as activated carbon material
to be applied in adsorption process as pretreatment of solar photo-Fenton and solar photo …

Laboratory toxicity tests, using ciliated protozoa, are scarce and they have been carried out
usually with freshwater species. In this study, we have analysed the acute cytotoxicity of Cd …

Pharmaceuticals reach terrestrial environments through the application of treated
wastewaters and biosolids to agricultural soils. We have investigated the toxicity of 15 …

The aim of this study was to investigate the parameters of chemical extraction associated
with the detection of toxicity and genotoxicity in sediment sample extracts. Quantitative …
