Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are widely distributed along the world and their levels
in surface waters may pose a risk to human health due to consumption of contaminated …

Historical chlor-alkali production has led to substantial concentrations of persistent organic
pollutant residues in the environment. This study systematically investigated the distribution …

Water scarcity is a major problem in the Sub-Saharan Africa, as such rainwater harvesting is
considered as an alternative source of water. However, air pollution may affect the quality of …

The occurrence of emerging pollutants in water represents a health risk for humans and the
ecosystem. It has been shown that pollutant–soil interactions are determinants in preventing …

Many studies have indicated that individual exposure to phthalates (PAEs) or polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) affects pregnancy outcomes. However, combined exposure …

This study aimed to investigate the toxicity and endocrine disrupting potential of a complex
mixture of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the estrogen pathway using …

Environmental contaminants, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), have raised
concerns regarding their potential endocrine-disrupting effects on aquatic organisms …

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in water can reach levels below ppt (ng L− 1),
representing a challenge for risk assessment using long-term exposure. Therefore, sampling …

This study investigates the association between prenatal exposure to dioxin-like
polychlorinated biphenyls (DL-PCBs) and glucocorticoid and androgenic hormone levels in …

Air pollution includes particle-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which
eventually reach the placenta, triggering adverse perinatal outcomes through long-term …
